Chiropractic Care Can Help with Running Injuries

How can chiropractors help runners 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️? We are glad you asked! Here’s how:

INJURY PREVENTION:

▪ Improve movement patterns: Chiropractors can identify and correct muscle imbalances that can lead to overuse injuries like runner's knee, shin splints, and plantar fasciitis. 

▪ Enhanced Range of Motion: Regular adjustments can improve joint mobility, allowing for more efficient and fluid running movements. 

▪ Reduced Muscle Tension: Chiropractic techniques can release muscle tension that builds up from repetitive running motions, reducing the risk of injury. This can be done through scraping, cupping, dry needling, soft tissue release technique, and more!

PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT:

▪ Improved Biomechanics: By optimizing joint function and muscle coordination, chiropractors can help runners achieve better biomechanics and running efficiency. 

▪ Faster Recovery: Chiropractic adjustments can increase blood flow to injured tissues, promoting faster healing and reducing recovery time between runs. 

▪ Pain Relief: Chiropractors can effectively treat acute and chronic running-related pain, allowing runners to stay active and train consistently.
