Comprehensive Sports Chiropractic Solutions

Whether you’re dealing with an acute sports injury, chronic pain or looking to prevent future impairments, we have you covered. Our services address a variety of sports-related conditions, including joint injuries, strains, sprains, muscle stiffness and overuse injuries.

These are just some of the sports injuries we treat. Contact us to discuss treatments for your particular situation:

Sprains and Strains

Sprains and strains are common in sports, often caused by overstretching or tearing of ligaments and muscles. Whether it's an ankle sprain from a sudden twist or a muscle strain from overuse, we have the expertise to help you heal. Our treatments focus on reducing pain and inflammation, improving mobility and strengthening affected areas to prevent future injuries.

Joint Injuries

Joint injuries, such as dislocations and ligament tears, can be debilitating. They can occur from high-impact sports or repetitive motions. Our approach includes realigning joints, using gentle adjustments and providing exercises to restore stability and function. We aim to help you regain full use of your joints, so you can return to your activities without limitations.

Muscle Stiffness

Muscle stiffness can often be the result of overexertion or from not allowing enough time for recovery. At Tan Chiro, we use techniques like soft tissue therapy, dry needling and stretching exercises to relieve stiffness. Our goal is to enhance your flexibility and mobility while ensuring your muscles are well-conditioned.

Overuse Injuries

Overuse injuries develop gradually from repetitive stress on the body, such as tendonitis or stress fractures. These injuries require a careful approach to prevent worsening. We provide targeted treatments that promote healing and include advice on modifying your training to avoid recurrence. By addressing the root causes of your sports injuries, we help you stay active without pain.

Back and Neck Pain

Sports involving high impact or heavy lifting can lead to back and neck pain. Whether it's a sudden injury or chronic discomfort, our chiropractic care focuses on spinal alignment and relieving pressure on nerves. We offer spinal adjustments, ergonomic advice, dry needling, remedial massage and body-specific exercises to strengthen your core and support your spine.

Shoulder Injuries

Shoulder injuries, such as rotator cuff tears or impingement, are common in sports that involve throwing or overhead motions. Our treatment plan includes exercises to improve shoulder mechanics, manual therapy to reduce pain and strategies to enhance your shoulder’s range of motion and strength.

Knee Injuries

Knee injuries like ACL tears or meniscus damage can significantly impact your mobility. We offer comprehensive care, including joint mobilisation, muscle strengthening and rehabilitative exercises. Our aim is to restore your knee function fully and get you back to your sport with confidence.

Elbow and Wrist Injuries

Sports that require repetitive arm motions can lead to elbow and wrist injuries, such as tennis elbow or carpal tunnel syndrome. Our approach combines manual therapy, exercises, and ergonomic adjustments to reduce pain and improve function. We work to ensure you can perform at your best without discomfort.
