Sports Medicine in NYC
Whether you're training for a marathon, playing in a weekend soccer league, or you tweaked something during your regular gym routine, a sports injury tends to bring the same question: how do I get back to it, safely and quickly? Our sports medicine team evaluates the injury, rules out anything serious, and builds a chiropractic-led recovery plan around your specific sport and your goals, not a generic rest-and-ice handout.
A Multidisciplinary Approach to Sports Injuries
Sports injuries rarely respond to just one type of treatment, which is why care here isn't limited to a single provider or technique. Depending on what your injury needs, your plan may combine:
- Chiropractic adjustments, including extremity adjustments for joints beyond the spine including shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and ankles
- Physical therapy and therapeutic exercise to rebuild strength and stability, not just relieve pain
- Myofascial release and deep tissue massage to address the muscle tightness and restriction that often comes with an injury
- Acupuncture and electroacupuncture to support pain management during recovery
- Cupping therapy for muscle tension and circulation
- On-site digital X-rays for quick and accurate results while at the same time providing the necessary clinical information needed to formulate the correct treatment plan.
