Dr. Weida is happy to work with athletes at all levels to assist in increasing sports performance and to provide aid in instances of sports injury, implementing natural sports medicine that helps your body heal so you can get back in action. Here’s a closer look at the more common types of sports performance and injury treatment that our chiropractor often provides for our patients.

Kinesiotape

Kinesiology tape is one of several options that can be used in cases of sports performance or injury. 

Oxygen Therapy

Oxygen therapy is an excellent complement to electrostimulation and enables many sports medicine practitioners to treat sports injuries that affect soft tissue effectively. Oxygen therapy is a medical treatment that involves the administration of supplemental oxygen to individuals with breathing difficulties or low blood oxygen levels. It is commonly used to support various medical conditions and aid in the recovery process.

This treatment requires the patient to spend several minutes inside a hyperbaric chamber that contains elevated levels of oxygen. These elevated oxygen levels help expel toxins from injured soft tissue, while encouraging beneficial body fluids to replace them and promote natural healing.

Spinal Adjustments and Decompression

Many sports injuries affect the neck and spine and cause extreme pain. One of the many ways our chiropractor can help is with a spinal adjustment that properly aligns the spine and relieves any pressure on injured, slipped, or swollen spinal discs. Spinal decompression gently stretches the spine to ease pressure on spinal discs, which might help naturally enhance healing while reducing back pain.
