Recover from Sports Injuries with Our Chiropractic Team

Did you know that chiropractic care might help you recover faster and prevent further injuries? That's where Piney Flats Chiropractic Center's Dr. Sheri Wingate comes in. Sporting at any level has numerous advantages. Unfortunately, it also raises the likelihood of harm. The wear and tear that physical activity causes on an athlete's body over time makes them more susceptible to sprains and strains, strained muscles and torn ligaments, and regular joint discomfort and stiffness, especially if you play more (or longer).


But the solution is not to stop exercising; rather, it is to strive to avoid injuries in the first place. Learning good technique for your sport, warming up and stretching regularly, and incorporating regular sports chiropractic therapy into your training regimen all assist. Sports chiropractic therapy has been shown to be effective in the treatment of certain types of sports injuries as well as the prevention of many others.

Why Chiropractors are the Better Choice for Treatment & Recovery

Everyday athletes push themselves harder, choose difficult training methods, and up their diets. Athletes, no matter what age, suffer musculoskeletal ailments despite careful training. Dr. Wingate specializes in diagnosing and treating athlete injuries. Chiropractors are better at treating sports injuries than medical doctors and can help prevent future athletic injuries.


Doctor-treated athletes often sit out. Others play and then need cold packs and painkillers for hours afterward. Doctors treat injuries individually, not as a system. Chiropractic care emphasizes the spine, joints, muscles, tendons, and nerves, making it ideal for athletes.
