Chiropractic Care for Runners' Sports Injuries

Chiropractic Care for Runners' Sports Injuries

chiropractic care for running and sports injuriesRunning can be a wonderful way to stay in top shape -- or it can be a cause of chronic or acute sports injuries. Recurring bouts of hip, foot or knee pain can hinder your running, and may also interfere with your quality of life. If this has happened to you, then it may be time to come to our chiropractic clinic for evaluation and treatment.

Some running injuries that cause pain in one part of the body are actually part of bigger problem -- a body imbalance. Runner’s knee, for instance, is a common and very painful injury. If your body weight is not distributed equally, one knee may be absorbing more force than the other with every step you take, and this imbalance may finally cause the kneecap to dislocate. Shoes that fail to support your arches adequately can also put extra strain on the knees.

Foot pain is another problem common to runners. A painful connective tissue inflammation called plantar fasciitis is often associated with excessive stress on the feet, and spinal misalignments or inadequate arch support may be a contributing factor to this form of foot pain. Bear in mind that debilitating back pain from a misaligned vertebra or bulging disc can also occur under these circumstances. Back pain can turn a simple run into an agonizing or even impossible challenge.
