Seattle Athletic Injury Safety Tips

By Jorel Tuyor


People who are professional or amateur athletes put their bodies through a lot on a regular basis. It is smart and preventive for athletes to have an ongoing relationship with their chiropractor. Regular chiropractic care can help athletes manage pain, maintain strength and mobility and help prevent injuries. The advanced training of your Seattle chiropractor will help you play the game you love for many more years.

Strong core muscles are the secret to protecting the spine from injury. Athletes often take sudden bodily impacts and a strong core will help the body absorb the impact without injury. Chiropractors work with their patients to modify the workout routine of the athlete. The core abdominal muscles should get the time and attention they need in the gym in order to build strength.

Reducing inflammation has the effect of reducing pain and may prevent additional injury. Massage, inversion and ultrasound therapies can all be used to reduce inflammation and relieve pain. Massage therapy relaxes the muscles which is helpful since tense muscles exacerbate the condition. Inversion tables are used to reduce pressure and tension around the spine. Regular ultrasound therapy sessions can improve mobility.

Reducing pain naturally and with non-invasive care means that the athlete will be less likely to turn to addictive pain medication. Drugs will mask the pain, which only makes the athlete more likely to sustain an injury. With chiropractic care the cause of the pain is addressed and conditions of the body like inflammation lessen.

It is the human condition that as people age bodies lose some of their ability to bounce back from illness or injury. People who love sports or earn their living at sports can continue to play. They just need to realize their limitations and play the game with greater care.

With regular chiropractic care athletes can be prepared to manage pain and prevent injuries. Staying fit with workouts that increase strength and improve flexibility helps prevent injuries. Adjust to the realities of aging and you will be able to stay in the game longer.
