Sports Chiropractic in Midtown NYC
Whether you’re an avid runner or CrossFitter, weekend warrior or elite professional athlete, chiropractic can help you on many levels.
Children and Sports Activities
Active kids tend to be involved in many sports activities. Their natural exuberance can sometimes cause them to overextend beyond their physical abilities. We work with young athletes of all ages, in all sports, all the way up to the professional level.
When Injuries Happen
No matter how skilled, athletes suffer injuries. Reactive chiropractic care addresses injuries and rehabilitation in four ways:
- Ensures your body is operating correctly, in proper alignment, to speed up the healing process
- Takes pressure off over-stressed joints
- Relieves muscle pain and soreness
- Brings more circulation into the affected area
Our chiropractor also includes stretches and exercises designed to restore proper function to the injured part of the body.
Prevention and Performance
Pre-emptive chiropractic is about prevention. We can help keep the body in alignment, circulation flowing to all areas, and ensure the body is in balance.
If everything is functioning properly, muscles are firing, and the nervous system is working the way it’s supposed to, injuries can be prevented and, if they occur, be less severe.
When there are restrictions in the body, it can affect performance. For example, hip or low back issues will affect twisting motions commonly used in golf, baseball and tennis.
At our practice, we see quite a few equestrians. Not so surprising, horses get chiropractic care, and their riders need to be checked as well.
Walking in the City
New York is a walking city, sometimes described as a concrete jungle. Pounding the pavement can cause interference in the foot. An imbalance can affect ankles, knees and hips, all the way up to the neck.
Did you know that over 25% of the bones in the body are in your foot? We check your feet for subluxations and adjust all 26 bones. When necessary, we will fit you for orthotics to correct any postural misalignments.
