Marron Wellness Center

Sports injuries can keep you from playing the game you love. If you suffer from a sports injury, contact Marron Wellness Center in Eatontown for sports injury treatment to accelerate your recovery. These FAQs provide more information about sports injuries and how chiropractic care can help with rehabilitation.

What are some common sports injuries? 

Sports injuries can be acute or chronic. Acute injuries like dislocated bones and joints, spinal misalignments, and torn muscles often happen swiftly and unexpectedly, making your movements difficult and painful. Chronic injuries develop over time, due to muscle overuse or repetitive motions. Your pain may start small and increase over time. Injuries like golfer’s elbow, shin splints, rotator cuff injuries, and runner’s knee are examples of chronic injuries. Our chiropractor can help treat both acute and chronic sports injuries.

How can I tell if I have a sports injury? 

The most obvious symptoms of a sports injury are pain in your muscles or joints followed by inflammation and loss of mobility. By visiting our Eatontown chiropractor, you can get an accurate diagnosis of your condition. We have ample experience in diagnosing and treating sports injuries.

What can I expect from sports injury treatment?

We use chiropractic adjustments and natural therapies like massage and corrective exercises to help people recover from sports injuries. Adjustments help correct misaligned joints and bones that are causing pain and keeping you from moving freely. Massage eases tense muscles, reduces inflammation, and increases blood circulation to your injury to promote faster healing. Physical therapy exercises can strengthen muscles and joints and restore your range of motion and flexibility.

Can sports injuries be prevented?

By taking some precautions, you can reduce your risk of suffering sports injuries. If you’re part of a team, take time to train before the season starts by lifting weights or doing cardio exercises to get in shape. Warming up and stretching before each game can enhance your flexibility to make you less susceptible to injuries.

Does nutrition play a role?

Professional athletes and everyday active adults both want to perform at their best. For many, a good foundation for superior athletic performance includes a solid sports nutrition plan. A proper plan can provide essential nutrients to growing muscles, fluids to keep the body properly hydrated, and can even help during the recovery phase after experiencing a sports injury. At Marron Wellness Center, we offer nutritional counseling to keep your body operating at peak performance throughout the day.
