San Antonio TX, Peterson Chiropractic and Drs. Ward and Tim Peterson, DC are pleased to announce that athletes who have suffered injuries during play or training can make use of chiropractic methods to speed recovery. Injuries to athletes are fairly common. They suffer from falls, twisting, bumps and bruises. The San Antonio chiropractor team identifies the precise location of the injury and prepares a program for alleviating the pain and injuries and promoting a faster recovery.

When an athlete suffers an injury, it is recommended that a consultation with the chiropractor be scheduled as soon as possible following the event. The doctor will perform an examination to identify the exact location and extent of the injury. It may be necessary to use digital imaging studies to ascertain the area where there are problems.

A common problem with athletic injuries is misalignment of the spine or the extremities. A chiropractic adjustment is the first step in recovery from many of the injuries. Spinal adjustment will relieve acute pain levels and will allow the athlete to take advantage of further therapy options. Therapy to relieve the pain in soft tissue consists of various techniques. Some of the most often-used techniques include massage, electro-therapy, ultrasound and others.

Athletes who take advantage of chiropractic methods are often able to enjoy better health. Better nutrition, improved exercise and a healthier lifestyle improve all aspects of the quality of life. Chiropractors encourage preventative measures to help avoid certain types of injuries, especially those which occur when athletes fail to warm up properly.
