Benefits of sports chiropractic

You do not need to be a professional athlete to benefit from sports chiropractic. Anyone involved in physical activities should receive regular chiropractic adjustments in order to prevent injuries, facilitate healing and reduce wear and tear on the body.
Injuries like sprains, strains, pulled muscles, tendonitis, bursitis and joint problems in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, ankle, and foot respond wonderfully to chiropractic care.

How does sports chiropractic improve athletic performance?

Chiropractors view a person as an integrated being, focusing on the nerve system, the spine, and joints. Chiropractors approach the body holistically, and help athletes obtain peak performance by making sure that all of the body's systems are functioning at their best, minimizing the chance of injury and facilitating efficient recuperation from any existing injuries.

How does sports chiropractic work?

At Dr Kori - Chiropractic in Santa Barbara, we understand that optimal health is only possible with a nerve system that is functioning free of interference. When there is a subluxation (vertebrae shifted out of alignment) in the body that is causing nerve interference, the cells, tissues, organs and systems affected by that subluxation cannot function properly.

Dr. Kori has 20 years of sports chiropractic experience to pinpoint where these areas of stress are occurring in the body and then determine the best technique to remove any misalignments and tension, allowing the body to return to a healthier state.
