As a passionate sportsperson, I’m acutely aware of how important it is for my clients to stay in good health and achieve peak performance. I provide chiropractic care for both rehabilitation and to help you reach your optimum potential.
Rehabilitation
Sporting injuries are extremely common. It is important to determine the injury severity early and implement a structured plan to get you back on the field as quickly as possible.
Treatment at the clinic provides strategies to reduce your pain and strengthen the area, which will prevent further injury.
Optimal Performance
Poor posture, regional tightness and/or instability of the spine and hips may have unwanted and negative impacts of athletic performance.

FAQ – Chiropractic Treatment for Sports Injuries
Yes, chiropractors are highly effective at treating sports injuries. They specialise in musculoskeletal problems, helping athletes recover faster through spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and movement analysis to restore optimal function and prevent re-injury.
Chiropractors treat sprains, strains, overuse injuries, joint dysfunction, muscle imbalances, and biomechanical problems. Common conditions include runner’s knee, tennis elbow, shoulder impingement, back pain, neck injuries, and ankle sprains from various athletic activities.
Return time varies by injury severity and sport demands. Minor injuries may allow return within 1-2 weeks, while more complex issues require 4-8 weeks. Your chiropractor will assess your progress and ensure you’re functionally ready before clearance.
Absolutely. Regular chiropractic care helps maintain proper biomechanics, joint mobility, and muscle balance. Many athletes use preventive care to optimise performance, identify potential problem areas early, and reduce injury risk through improved movement patterns and body mechanics.
Treatment includes joint adjustments, muscle therapy, kinesiology taping, rehabilitation exercises, movement screening, and sport-specific training advice. Many chiropractors also provide nutritional guidance and recovery strategies to accelerate healing and enhance athletic performance.
