Whether you are an athletes or an all-round active person, regular chiropractic care can help you to perform better and reduce your chance of sport injury.
Vigorous training can cause micro traumas (small wear and tear that you don't really notice but will inevitably add up) or, of course, single larger traumas (e.g. from contact sport). The acumulation of traumas in the body leads to the formation of scar tissues, causing restrictions of our joints and impedes our flexibility, thus predisposes the athletes to injury as well as reduced performance.
Chiropractors are musuloskeletal expert that are trained to identify movement deficit and remedy the restricted joints and muscles. After a thorough assessment, chiropractors will address the problematic joints with ‘adjustments’, high velocity and low amplitude thrusts to restore the movement of the joints.
Chiropractic cares have been well documented scientifically in the improvement of our body performance and injury prevention:
1. A 2012 study by the National University of Health Sciences, demonstrated a 15% increase in grip strength for judo athletes who underwent chiropractic treatment, compared to those who did not. To find out more about the study, click here.
2. A 2008 study by Scandinavian College of Chiropractic found that runners who received chiropractic care were better able to extend their hip, which may impact on their running velocity.To find out more about the study, click here.
3. A 2010 study by Hoskins and Pollard demonstrated that semi-elite Australian footballers that underwent chiropractic care consistently throughout the season were significantly less likely to incur hamstring, back or lower limb injuries and miss play weeks.
