Back-to-school season means one thing for many local families: sports are back in full swing! Whether it’s football, volleyball, cross-country, or tennis, young athletes are pushing their bodies to the limit. And for many adults, fall leagues and outdoor activities keep things just as busy.
At Cuyuna Chiropractic, we love seeing athletes of all ages perform at their best. But performance means nothing if it comes with pain or injury. That’s where preventative chiropractic care comes in.
Why Do Sports Injuries Happen?
Most sports injuries result from:
-
Repetitive stress (like running, throwing, jumping)
-
Muscle imbalances or improper movement patterns
-
Poor recovery, warmup, or stretching routines
-
Misalignments in the spine or joints
These factors don’t just lead to pain—they lead to decreased performance and missed playing time.
How Chiropractic Helps Prevent Injuries
As a Certified Chiropractic Sports Practioner® (CCSP®), Dr. Steph brings advanced training in evaluating and treating sports-related injuries—before they happen.
Here’s how we support local athletes:
Spinal and joint adjustments to keep the body aligned and moving efficiently
Movement assessments to spot imbalances or dysfunctions
Kinesiology taping and soft tissue techniques to support healing and performance
Education on warmups, hydration, stretching, and recovery
