YOUR FLOWER MOUND CHIROPRACTOR & SPORTS INJURIES

Your Flower Mound Chiropractor

If you’re an athlete, whether it is intramural, city league, recreational, professional, or retired, you understand the numerous demands of participating in any sport. Sports injuries such as sprains, strains, dislocations, and over exertion can occur at any time when participating in a sport. For example, baseball pitchers often experience rotator cuff and shoulder problems. Soccer players frequently have hip and leg issues, and your weekend warrior could do anything from pulling a muscle running the local 10K, to twisting an ankle at Tuesday night’s open basketball at the local gym. Regardless of your age, ability level, or chosen activities, we can make improvements to your quality of life, educate you how to remain injury-free, and maximize your physical performance.

OUR 3 STEP PROCESS

COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION

Your initial visit will begin with a comprehensive examination. We will review your complete medical history. Precise examination techniques will be utilized to assure an accurate diagnosis and of needed imaging including X-Rays or MRIs will be ordered.

YOUR CUSTOM TREATMENT PLAN

Once we have a clear understanding of your injury we will customize a personalized treatment plan. This may include: specific rehabilitative exercises, electronic muscle stimulation, ultrasound therapy, hot or cold therapy, chiropractic adjustments, myofascial release, or trigger point injections to help eliminate pain and restore proper function.

EDUCATION & SELF CARE

Helping you understand your body and what caused your sports injury to begin with is one of the most critical pieces of the puzzle in order to avoid re-injury.

We will teach you effective self care for the future and will suggest occasional “maintenance” re-checks. We will teach you how to identify disfunction long before it manifests to an injury.

This self-care training and education take time and patience for you to do on you own. It may require a complete paradigm shift and you might need to change  you approach to athletics. However, it will result in fewer injuries and will help you maximize your physical performance in all types of athletic endeavors.
