Athletes

In competitive sports, the difference between winning and losing is sometimes measured in microseconds. Athletes need every little bit of strength, speed, and flexibility they can muster.

That’s why, when injuries happen, many turn to chiropractic care rather than more invasive options for pain relief. Prescription drugs dull reaction times and carry the risk of addiction, while surgery might leave an athlete benched for months, or unfortunately never the same. A certified chiropractic sports doctor, on the other hand, is able to relieve pain without drugs or surgery—all while keeping the body balanced, flexible and performing optimally.

Pysio-Therapy

Whether you’re a weekend warrior, athlete, have been involved in a work-related injury, or you’ve recently been in a motor vehicle accident, the intense pain that can be associated with an acute injury can be debilitating. We perform a comprehensive exam to determine the extent of your injuries, as well as, developing a treatment plan that best suits your individual needs. The initial goal when dealing with an acute injury is to decrease the pain being experienced, from there we help you to regain function and return to your normal activities. To do this, we will use a combination of manual therapy techniques, exercise, electric stimulation, ice/heat, and taping. Our goal is to get you back to work or what you love to do as soon as possible.

Workplace Ergonomics

Practicing proper posture and ergonomically arranging your environment will prevent and relieve pain due to repetitive stress injuries. These injuries are caused by poor posture, and improperly designed work and living spaces. Our chiropractors help patients improve posture with exercises and stretches, designed to strengthen key muscle groups and increase flexibility. We also help patients achieve healthy posture with ergonomically designed surroundings at work, home, and in the driver’s seat.

Pregnancy

It may be surprising to some, but pregnancy and chiropractic care go hand in hand. Chiropractic adjustments are a safe, gentle, and natural way to help a woman’s body adapt to the many changes undergone during pregnancy. During pregnancy, several changes take place in the body, in order to create the proper environment for developing and nurturing your baby. These changes are both physical and hormonal. Chiropractic adjustments seek to align the spine, which in turn keeps your nervous system working without interference. A healthy nervous system means a healthier body that functions more effectively. Pregnant women experience their own set of pregnancy specific benefits:

• Optimal baby positioning

• Healthier pregnancy

• Reduced/alleviated pain in neck, back, or joints

• Reduced nausea symptoms

• Quicker, safer labor and delivery

Exercise

Keeping the body properly aligned gives it more opportunity to work and function the way it is supposed to. When your back is aligned, it takes the stress and extra work off of surrounding bones, muscles, and joints. This means that each muscle can do its job efficiently. Compensation for weak areas happens less often, making you less susceptible to future injuries and associated pain.

Pediatrics

Stand Up Chiropractic specializes in performing chiropractic adjustments on children. The techniques they use are gentle and non-invasive. Each chiropractic adjustment is tailored to each individual child’s delicate and pliable spine, with a very light amount of force.

Research has shown the optimal time for a child’s first chiropractic check up is right after birth. Addressing things early generally helps the newborn better adjust to their new environment. This also helps them grow and develop optimally from day one. If your child has never had a chiropractic check up, it is never too late to start. Book an appointment for your family today!

Nutrition

Your nervous system influences every single part of your body, and when it comes to your food, digestion is no exception. When the nervous system is not balanced, disruptions will occur. The nervous system is responsible for telling your body what it needs to do with its fuel. If a disturbance is present, the messages sent between your brain and body, will go unread. While you may be eating three square meals a day, your body isn’t reaping the benefits that it should.

Post Surgical Rehabilitation

When it comes to recovering from an injury and staying healthy, movement matters. The key is doing the right kinds of movements and exercises at the right intensity. That’s why, in addition to treatments performed by your doctor, chiropractic care usually involves rehabilitation exercises. Chiropractic rehabilitation is a proven way to help optimize recovery from injuries, and reduce the likelihood of similar or new injuries in the future.
