Sports Chiropractic Care at Carolina Sports Clinic Fort Mill
What is Sports Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a health care profession that is natural and hands-on aiming to restore your health. Chiropractors help you feel better without the use of drugs or surgery. They are experts on disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system and are “portal of entry” doctors, meaning you do not need a referral by another health care provider.
Chiropractic has been around since the 1890’s with a philosophy centered on treating the whole body with high velocity/ low amplitude (HVLA) manual adjustments.
Treatments are focused on allowing your body to heal and recover naturally by treating limited joint motions, muscle spasms, nerve irritation and inflammation to damaged tissue. Sports chiropractors look at the body as a whole, doing work on your joints and your soft tissue to get you feeling better as fast as possible.
What is an adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment is a therapeutic procedure aimed at restoring motion to a joint that has become restricted due to tissue injury. Tissues are often injured from a traumatic event, like a car accident or poor posture. When tissues are injured, they undergo physical and chemical changes that create pain and inflammation. Manipulation of an involved joint helps to restore normal motion, break up scar tissue and decrease muscle tension to help with the healing process.
At Carolina Sports Clinic Fort Mill we not only treat problematic areas in your spine but your extremities too, such as your shoulders, knees, wrists, etc.
Chiropractic adjustments are gentle yet effective, and most patients report feeling some type of relief right away. Often times you will hear a “pop” or “crack” with an adjustment.
