Sports Injury and Rehabilitation from Our Illinois Chiropractor

Even if you aren't a professional athlete, you may benefit from personalized treatment by a chiropractor. Whether you have experienced a personal injury while playing or at work, you deserve the best care as you heal. Our Alsip, IL, chiropractic center offers treatment for sports injuries. These are some of the common sports injuries we treat at Health on Earth Wellness Center.

Strains

Strains, or pulled muscles, are a common type of sports injury. A strain results when a tendon or muscle becomes stretched or torn. Strains frequently occur in the hamstrings, quads, and groin. You may benefit from exercises and stretches as well as cold therapy.

Sprains

Sprains result from stretching or tearing of ligaments. You might experience sprains in your ankles, knees, and wrists, leading to inflammation, swelling, and bruising. Sprains can take a long time to heal, but chiropractic care can help. Our team may recommend stretches, exercises, and braces.

Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common types of sports injuries. You might experience low back pain because of overuse or an injury during physical activity. We offer treatment for chronic and acute lower back pain, including spinal manipulation and electric stimulation.

Knee Injuries

Knee injuries are a frequent injury among athletes, ranging from ACL tears to runner’s knee. We offer treatments such as physical therapy and exercises to help reduce inflammation while helping you regain strength and stability in the knee joint. These injuries may also benefit from support tape, braces, and more.

Neck Pain

Neck pain is a common complaint among athletes, especially those who play contact sports. Neck pain may present itself in the form of headaches, stiffness, or tingling in the arms and legs. We can offer treatments such as chiropractic adjustments, exercises, and massage therapy to alleviate pain.

Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can be caused by overuse, poor posture, or injuries. The shoulder joint is made up of many muscles and ligaments that surround the rotator cuff. Common shoulder problems include tears in the rotator cuff, bursitis, frozen shoulder, and tendonitis. We offer treatments such as chiropractic care and physical rehabilitation to help.
