Sports Injury in Sacramento CA

Have you suffered a sports injury in Sacramento CA? Have you heard the names Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Aaron Rodgers, Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong, and Kareem Abdul-Jubbar before? These are some of the elite athletes who attribute a large amount of their success to the chiropractic care they received throughout their careers.

In addition to the success experienced by these world-class athletes, you may have noticed chiropractors along the sidelines of NFL football games and the most recent Olympic events. Both of these organizations have recognized how vital chiropractic is to their team's success and integrated chiropractic doctors into their sports medicine team.

Not only can chiropractic help world-famous athletes excel, it has also been shown to provide short and long-term benefits for entry-level, high school, and college participants. Anderson Chiropractic has been providing care to local amateur and professional sports teams for years and this article will inform you how you can benefit.

Natural Injury Care at Our Sports Injury and Chiropractic Center

Whether you're a "weekend warrior," a student on a school team, a dedicated amateur, or a full-time professional athlete, sports injuries are inevitably part of the game. In addition to the acute musculoskeletal injuries you may experience in your chosen sport, chronic overuse injuries can also plague ongoing or recurring symptoms. The last thing you want is to anesthetize yourself or endure months of post-operative recovery. That's why you should pursue the natural injury care options at our sports injury and chiropractic treatment center in Sacramento CA.

Common Sports Injuries in Sacramento CA

From the gridiron to the golf course, sports injuries lie in wait for athletes at all skill levels. Some of the most common issues include:

• Acute impact-related injuries such as whiplash, subluxated vertebrae, pinched nerves and herniated discs
• Tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and carpal tunnel syndrome from racket or club overuse
• Plantar fasciitis, a chronic foot inflammation worsened by lack of arch support or unequal weight distribution
• Runner's knee, a painful inflammatory condition which can be aggravated by joint misalignment
• Rotator cuff injuries affecting the muscles and connective tissues that mobilize the shoulder

While there's no getting around the need to swing a racket or shoot baskets numerous times in games and practices, it's worth noting that any imbalance in your musculoskeletal system can affect your sports technique, making you that much more injury-prone.

Injury Rehabilitation (and Beyond) for Athletes

Bring your sports-related aches and pains to Anderson Chiropractic. Our sports injury chiropractor in Sacramento can analyze the injury in detail, as well as the circumstances that led to it. We can then get right to work on relieving your acute symptoms. Chiropractic adjustments can nudge misaligned joint components back into their proper place, while our non-surgical spinal decompression techniques can treat herniated discs and pinched nerves. Physiotherapy can relieve your soft tissue pain and help you heal without drugs. Corrective exercises can help re-train and rebuild an injured body part as successfully as possible.

But our benefits go beyond mere injury care and rehabilitation. If we see an underlying spinal misalignment, extremity joint issue, or muscle weakness that is affecting your technique and boosting your injury chances, we can administer corrective therapies to optimize those functions. Periodic screenings and incremental adjustments can then help you stay in tip-top condition season after season.
