Find out how to be at the top of your game!
Whether you’re into CrossFit, running, cycling, or another sport, you understand the importance of maintaining optimal physical health as an athlete. Keeping your body in good working order is the foundation of your performance. Unfortunately, injuries are often an inevitable part of the athletic journey. The good news is athletes can bounce back more vitally than ever with the right rehab strategies offered by the dedicated team of professionals at Denton Sports Chiropractic!
- A Thorough Assessment and Diagnosis
Our first step to accelerating an athlete’s recovery is thoroughly assessing the injury. Your assessment may involve manual palpation and functional movement screening to understand the extent and nature of the damage fully. Our doctors and corrective exercise specialists can also help identify contributing factors such as muscle imbalances, joint dysfunction, or biomechanical issues that have a cumulative effect and could have led to injury.
- Pain Management: More Than Just Relief
At our practice, we believe in a collaborative and holistic approach to help you manage and get out of pain. We use a variety of modalities, such as chiropractic care, dry needling, cupping, myofascial release, and medical massage.
If your doctor recommends continued care with corrective exercise training or table-based assisted stretching, we have all these services under one roof for your convenience. We also offer PiezoWave sound wave therapy, taping, and supplements to help manage acute pain and inflammation. We will support you in setting the groundwork for long-term healing and improved vitality.
- Restoration of Range of Motion
We help athletes regain a normal range of motion in affected joints by teaching corrective stretching and foam rolling techniques. This is a crucial step towards restoring functionality and strength while preventing re-injury.
- Functional Training and Corrective Exercises
Designed by one of our movement experts, our rehab strategy with corrective exercise is a tailored and comprehensive program. Our corrective exercise specialists will perform a functional movement screen to uncover your muscle imbalances. From there, a progressive resistance training program specific to your needs will be designed.
Your corrective exercise program will include functional movements to correct and fix your muscle imbalances while rebuilding strength and stability in the injured area and surrounding muscles. Sport-specific exercises and drills to simulate the demands of an athlete’s particular sport can be incorporated to correct any compensations and improve neuromuscular (brain-to-muscle) communication in the body for better coordination, balance, and overall performance.
- Education and Injury Prevention
At Denton Sports Chiropractic, we don’t just treat, we educate. We believe education is empowerment and aim to empower our patients with the tools to keep them successful and injury-free for a lifetime. Tools for proper movement mechanics, flexibility, and mobility, and the knowledge of contributing factors are key in preventing future injuries.
- Gradual Return to Sport
Our return-to-play program is structured and gradual under the careful guidance of our team of providers. Your team will communicate with each other, and we consistently monitor athletes for any signs of injury recurrence or overuse. Our intentional and strategic approach will ensure a confident return to sport.
