Why Chiropractic Is An Excellent Option for Athletes
The primary focus of chiropractic has always been to naturally optimize the body's potential. Here are three reasons chiropractic care is a great option for athletes;
1. Mobility, Agility and Reaction Time.
Biomechanics, or the way your body moves is integral to sports performance. At Green Space Health every patient is assessed for mobility restrictions from head to toe.
Whether you are pursuing a scholarship, a professional contract or just swinging a club on the weekend, mobility is key to top performance.
2. Neurology - The Brain-Body Connection
The nervous system controls your movements. If you want to squat, sprint, catch a ball or swing a club your brain needs clear communication with the nerves that control your muscles.
Injuries, concussions and muscle imbalances can all impact nerve function. Chiropractic adjustments are aimed at improving mobility and reducing pressure on nerves.
3. Recover From Injuries
Chiropractors are trained to assess for signs of concussions, ligament damage, muscle injuries and fractures commonly seen in athletes.
Improving the mobility of the spine and extremities can reduce muscle tension, increase blood flow and aid in recovery.
