Both amateur and professional athletes have to deal with sports injury issues, especially repetitive wear-and-tear injuries. An athlete can suffer blunt force trauma from a flying object or a dislocation from a trip or fall. Whatever the case is, playing a sport means you are more vulnerable to injury. Those who are experiencing a sports injury should seek care from a health professional such as a chiropractor or a sports therapist.

In sports therapy, the primary concern is usually injury recovery for athletes. However, our chiropractor can also improve your athletic performance by improving your mobility, and reducing your chances of being injured. Pain management is also another area that sports therapy can focus on, with pain relief being a common treatment option for athletes who visit a chiropractor's office. At Milam Chiropractic & Sports Therapy, we have been providing residents of Tustin and Irvine with sports therapy services for many years.

Benefits of Sports Therapy

Should you visit a chiropractor or a sports therapist, you can expect a healthcare experience customized to meet your athletic needs. Sports therapy can treat a wide range of sports-related medical conditions, most notably tennis elbow, wear-and-tear, strains, sprains, muscle tearing, headaches, groin pulls, shoulder dislocations, patellofemoral syndrome, and sciatica.

Musculoskeletal injuries are common in sporting accidents, which is why chiropractic care is a popular option for athletes. Our chiropractor cares for areas like the back, the feet, the hips, the neck, the shoulders, the hamstring, the arms, or the legs. When you first visit our office, our chiropractor will assess your musculoskeletal system to determine the root cause of your pain and immobility before creating a chiropractic care plan to address it.

Chiropractic Care for Athletes

There are several treatment options for a person looking for sports injury rehabilitation. AT Milam Chiropractic, we provide patients with pain relief, corrective exercise, spinal decompression, and stimulation of the muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The correct combination of chiropractic services will depend on the type, location, and severity of your sports injury.
