Sports Injuries

Sports Injuries are those incurred while playing sports or exercising and can be either acute or chronic. Strains (stretched or torn muscle), sprains (stretched or torn ligament), tendon injury, fractures, and dislocations are among those most commonly seen.

Pain, numbness, tingling or weakness felt in the buttock and/or down the leg that stems from irritation of the spinal nerve roots that lead to the sciatic nerve. Most commonly caused by herniated or ruptured discs; other common causes include spinal arthritis, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and bone spurs (osteophytes).

A neurological disorder, mostly unknown cause, described as an overwhelming urge to move the legs, usually due to pain or unpleasant sensations and is usually worse at night. Although there is no cure, chiropractic care is a leading RLS treatment and has the ability to correct instabilities and decrease symptoms.

The cervical spine supports the head and allows for movement, and includes a large number of tendons, ligaments, muscles and nerves, leaving it prone to tension, strain and pain.

Decompression, a type of traction therapy, works by gently stretching the spine. This change causes a reduction in pressure on the discs and spinal nerves, effectively reducing pain and promoting healing.

A common occurrence in which an intervertebral disc bulges outside of the space it normally occupies due to the weakening of the fibrous outer portion of the disc. Bulging discs are oftentimes seen as a normal part of aging, but can also be caused by overuse, such as seen in athletes, or misuse, such as improper lifting.

Back pain can be caused by any number of things, ranging from injuries and bulging discs to pinched nerves and spinal stenosis. An estimated 7.7 million Americans see a chiropractor annually for back pain relief through the restoration of proper alignment. Treatment restores proper alignment reduces muscle tension increases circulation, restores facet joint function and helps to alleviate nerve irritation.
