Frequently asked questions

I’m not an elite athlete. Is sports chiropractic right for me?

All exercise is a form of physical stress that puts pressure on the body. Even something as simple as going for a walk can exacerbate an already-existing issue that you might have never known was present. Someone who bowls once a month can get injured, even if they’re not otherwise active. We want to make sure you’re comfortable and don’t have to worry about tweaking your back in the kickball game this weekend and having to take off work next week because of it.

Do you help all ages?

Yes. When it comes to sports, kids start to play earlier and earlier in life, some at toddler age. We see everyone here, from children in Little League to adults who play league sports or enjoy the occasional pickup game.

What sports do you see most athletes from?

Tennis players, golfers, pickle ballers, runners, softball and baseball players, gymnasts, football players, hockey players, dancers and horseback riders are all included, amongst others.
