Sports Injury FAQs

If you are an athlete, you may have questions about your sports injury treatment plan. At Willow Bend Chiropractic in Plano, TX, we understand that recovering from an injury can be stressful, especially if it is taking a while for you to return to the sport you love playing. The following frequently asked questions and answers can give you the peace of mind knowing what to expect from our treatment services.

Why Are Chiropractic Adjustments and Deep Tissue Massage Used Together?

Chiropractic adjustments and deep tissue massage are often incorporated into an athlete’s treatment plan because these techniques support one another. Adjustments help promote function in the musculoskeletal system while massage gently supports and soothe the soft tissues. They also enable the body to heal faster and can get you back on the field sooner.

Will I Need Rehabilitation Exercises?

In most cases, we will recommend rehabilitation exercises to encourage healing, strengthen the injured area, and restore mobility. While most exercise sessions are performed at the office, they can also be completed at home.

How Long Before I Can Start Training Again?

Depending on how serve your sports injury is, the current status of your health, and what caused the injury, it may take several weeks before you can start training again. Every patient of ours has different needs, so everyone will respond differently to treatment. Follow our chiropractors’ advice and recommended therapies so that you can be one step closer to being able to train again for the sport you play.
