Chiropractic Care for Sports Persons and Athletes

Chiropractors are specialised health providers that have completed a five year undergraduate degree to become a chiropractor, although there are no chiropractic specialities in Australia, some do post-graduate study, focusing primarily on sporting injuries rehab and preventing recurrance of sporting injury.

Training includes first aid for concussion, heat exhaustion and hypothermia.

Suitably trained chiros can help manage injury rehabilitation.

Diagnosing and correcting any joint malfunction and treating soft tissue dysfunction is an important part of returning the athlete to their sport.

Supporting and preventing injuries such as sprains and strains, muscle, tendon and ligament injuries, forms an important part of the health management and better sporting performance.

When there is already a pre-existing condition in these areas, the risk of injury and the importance of appropriate care increases.

Increasing body flexibility, movement and muscle control, may help you improve sports performance, prevent further injuries and help you return to your sport quicker! 

Chiropractors can help relieve many back and neck problems as well as soft tissue problems:

  • Tendonitis
  • Muscular Strains
  • Ligament Sprains
  • ...and extremity conditions such as ankle, knee, shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand problems

Useful therapeutic techniques available from our practitioners include:

  • Taping / strapping
  • Soft tissue massage
  • Myofascial release techniques
  • Adjustments / manipulation
  • Stretching
  • Rehabilitation and exercise therapy.

Sports people understand the value of better health and the vital role of their Chiropractor in their healthcare team. Dr Mark was team chiropractor for the 2009 AFL premiership team.

Patients are referred for additional assessments and care when it is indicated.
