Benefits of Chiropractic Care For Weightlifters

chiropractor for weightliftingChiropractic care can offer a wide range of benefits for any individual. However, athletes are among the groups that can benefit the most from chiropractic treatment. Athletes need their bodies to be in optimal condition to ensure the best performance and they have to protect against the injures that can occur while involved in athletic activities.
For weightlifters, chiropractic care can help you achieve better performance and it can also be one of the most important steps for preventing weightlifting injuries. In this post, we are going to look at some of the ways that chiropractic care can benefit weightlifters.

Improve Performance

Weightlifting puts a lot of stress on the joints and on the back. This stress can increase the risk of misalignment and this can impact your performance. If the spine or other joints are misaligned, it means that your body is going to distribute weight unevenly. When you are lifting, this means that one side of the body is going to be bearing more of the weight than the other side. For a weightlifter, this could result in uneven gains.

A chiropractor can perform adjustments that will restore balance. Once the body is properly balanced, you will be able to perform better and this will lead to better results. As an additional benefit, adjustments help to restore proper function to the nervous system. Since the nervous system regulates muscle function and the processes that help muscles to heal, you can expect better results when it is functioning properly.

Prevent Injuries

Weightlifters expose themselves to a wide range of different types of injuries. Injuries to the muscles, tendons and ligaments are very common. A skilled chiropractor will be able to help you prevent many of these injuries.
This is another point that comes back to proper balance. If you have joints that are misaligned, they are at an increased risk for injury. By getting the necessary adjustments, you can ensure that your body has the proper mechanical balance, and this will reduce the risk of common weightlifting injuries.

A chiropractor may even be able to recommend specific exercises that you could use to strengthen the joints. By building strength up at the joints, you can make them more resistant to many of the injuries that are common among weightlifters.

Treating Injuries

Chiropractic care is also good for treating weightlifting injuries. Many of the most common weightlifting injuries affect the joints and soft-tissue structures near the joints. Chiropractic adjustments can be used to rehabilitate weightlifting injuries and it can help to ensure a better outcome.

Along with adjustments, a chiropractor may apply a variety of different treatment options for weightlifting injuries. Depending on the type of injury and its severity, a chiropractor may offer treatment options like heat/cold therapy, exercise, massage, electrical muscle stimulation or a wide range of other physical therapy techniques.

Weightlifters should try to find a chiropractor that has experience working with athletes. A chiropractor that has this experience will be more familiar with the types of injuries that are common among weightlifters, and they are more likely to offer the services and treatment options that will offer the most benefits for a weightlifter.

I went to Club West Chiropractic for the first time for a dislocated rib, and Dr. Ryan was able to adjust it back into place, and reduce all of the pain by 110%! When I walked in for the first time, the staff already knew who I was. Since then, I've gone back several times and have been greeted by my first name ever since. They are all so friendly and professional. I'd definitely recommend Dr. Ryan and Club West Chiropractic to all of my friends and family!

My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Ally and Dr. Ryan for several months now and we are really happy with our experience; they are professional, yet personable. Their treatment plans are very reasonable, taking into consideration what they are seeing going on with your body, but equally what you are reporting as being an issue and the extent to which it is an issue.
