You don’t have to be an “athlete” to benefit from chiropractic. Whether you are hitting the gym, yoga or Pilates class, using a Citi Bike or taking a stroll through Central Park, chiropractic can help you optimize your experience and help you recover quickly.
Chiropractic has been a mainstay of professional athletes of every kind. In our practice we have cared for Olympic athletes, team athletes, tennis players, golfers, wrestlers, gymnasts, martial artists, professional dancers. and performing artists. Every professional sports team has a chiropractor on staff. Why? It’s a game changer the for athletes, and it can be for you too!
Chiropractic helps restore normal neurological and bio-mechanical function to your joints and muscles. This means less injury and quicker recovery from injury or even just overuse. Myofascial release and massage helps clear lactic acid from the muscles by improving blood and lymph circulation. For our patients who had not been exercising, chiropractic has helped them get motivated to up their game or even get back into the game!
Engaging in a regular walking, stretching, strengthening or other aerobic activity is helpful in preventing neck and back pain. Check with Dr Erickson to see if your stretching or exercise plan is optimal for you; she can help design a plan that is just right for your body.
It’s interesting to note that many professional athletes rely on chiropractic care. Tiger Woods, Zach Johnson, Michael Jordan, Vijay Singh regularly consult their chiropractor. Madonna and other performing artists have brought chiropractors on tour. If it works for them, it could work for you.
