Do I need to be an athlete to see a sports chiropractor?
No. Sports chiropractic is suitable for anyone who is physically active, not just professional athletes. Whether you’re training regularly at the gym, playing weekend sport, or just experiencing pain from physical activity, sports chiropractic can help improve function, recovery, and performance.
What’s the difference between a regular chiropractor and a sports chiropractor?
A sports chiropractor can help manage sport related injuries as well as general pain. While both address spinal and joint dysfunction, sports chiropractors also incorporate soft tissue therapies, rehab exercises, and performance-focused techniques.
How soon can I get an appointment?
We often have same-day appointments available for patients from Shelley. Early booking is recommended for peak times.
What conditions do sports chiropractors treat?
Sports chiropractors commonly treat muscle strains, joint pain, ligament sprains, overuse injuries, tendonitis, and mobility restrictions. They also help with injury prevention, postural issues, and optimising movement patterns for athletic performance.
Is sports chiropractic treatment painful?
Most treatments are gentle and tailored to your tolerance. You may feel some pressure during joint adjustments or soft tissue therapy, but care is always taken to ensure comfort and avoid aggravating any injuries.
