Chiropractic Care Can Help Athletes to Function at Their Highest Capacity
Sports have become a huge part of our society and advances in training have
allowed athletes at all levels, to become stronger, faster, and quicker than in
years past. But did you know that chiropractic can help enhance your athletic
skills as well? Due to the strenuous activities of an athlete’s preparation, joints
tend to take a physical beating day in and day out. Over time, these joints will
possibly begin to wear down as well as develop fixations. When this begins to
occur, our muscles, ligaments, and cartilage begin to take on more of the stress
creating muscular imbalances and inflammatory states. Also, improper training
can also cause significant stress to the body. So how could chiropractic help? A
chiropractic adjustment helps to release these joint fixations allowing the joint to
move more freely. When the joints move freely, there is usually less incidence of
inhibited (underactive) or tightened muscles. This allows the athlete to function
at their highest capacity.
Make Sure You Do Not Put Too Much Stress on One Specific Thing Done Repetitively
When addressing training variables, be sure that too much of one specific thing
is not done repetitively. This can include overworking one specific muscle group
while weight training or working on sprint speed without introducing lateral
movement training as well. Training results tend to improve when variety is part
of the plan. Perform training cycles in which you use short time frames to work
on specific training goals before switching it up to something else. If you are
