A major goal for athletes is to show up for their sport, perform, and get winning results. Athletes are expected to be fast, precise, strong, flexible, and able to endure.
Chiropractic adjustments realign the joints of the body in order to free the nervous system of irritation so that the brain-to-body connection is free of unnecessary internal “hurdles.” By getting adjusted, athletes can function optimally.
Common Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Athletes are:
Enhances strength and performance
Injury prevention and treatment
Quicker reaction time
Improved balance and coordination Improved proprioception (body awareness in space)
Better muscle recruitment
Faster recovery
Keep in mind that nerve function doesn’t end with the nerve roots of the spine. The nerve pathways go through the joints of the extremities as well. Dr. Sarah is proficient in checking and adjusting extremities when needed.
Athletes of all ages are welcome at Charleston’s Cypress Chiropractic & Wellness.
