Sports Injuries
What are Sports Injuries?
With so many people participating in sports of all kinds, it is only natural that there will be injuries from time to time. Even mild sports like rollerblading, hiking, and swimming can sometimes result in injuries. These injuries do not have to be obvious. While broken bones can occur in any sport, what chiropractors see the most often are soft tissue injuries and pinched nerves. These can actually be worse than a broken bone, because a bone can heal completely in a relatively predictable amount of time. Soft tissue injuries and pinched nerves, unless they are treated properly, can cause pain, poor range of motion, and a general lower quality of life for years, or indefinitely.
Many traditional orthopedic doctors do not know how to treat soft tissue injuries and pinched nerves the right way, or simply don't do anything about them at all, leaving their patients frustrated at their lack of progress in healing. At On the River Chiropractic, all of our chiropractors are experts in sports medicine and the treatment of soft tissue injuries and pinched nerves from participation in sports. Dr. Thaler is no exception.
