From a young age, athletes get into a routine when it comes to the care and maintenance of their bodies. Athletic trainers are there on the sidelines to help with common or urgent issues, while physical therapists are called upon once a significant injury is sustained. However, establishing a relationship between athletes and chiropractic care is a growing trend that is gaining momentum from the most elite athletes and trickling down into the mainstream.
Professional athletes like Tiger Woods, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Brady and more have given glowing recommendations of chiropractic and how it has played a role in their success in athletics. To break the stereotype of chiropractors only cracking backs and necks, educating athletes on the merits of the practice has done wonders in elevating musculoskeletal care.
The benefits of chiropractic care in athletics
There are four main benefits athletes can expect once they begin seeing a chiropractor for regular maintenance of their bodies:
- Helps heal injuries
- Improved range of motion
- Improved flexibility
- Corrected asymmetries of the body
… factors that every athlete can benefit from!
