Sports Injuries

Exercising and enjoying sports are good for your body and health, but unfortunately along with the enjoyment of the acitivity come tightness, soreness, and injury. Treating the injury sooner than later is the best approach to maintaining your optimal activity level and preventing future injuries. Seeking appropriate care for your injury can often times be difficult and time consuming. You see your family doctor who refers you to a sport orthopedic doctor, who then refers you to a physical therapist, where you finally get some therapy for your injury. At the Center for Advanced Bodywork the assessment, diagnosis, and the treatment of your injury will all occur within one location.

We will work to get you back to the activities and sports you love as soon as possible. We strive to get our patients back to a competetive level of play, in the most effecient manner possible by incorporating chiropractic, manual therapy, stregthening and stretching protocols, and physiotherapy modalites. We take a structural as well as a functional and mechanical approach to diagnosing and treating your injury, which means we treat the cause of your symptoms, not just get rid of the pain. This approach not only gets you back on the playing field, but also streghtens and rehabilitates the injured body part to reduce the chances of reinjuring it in the future.
