Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a competitive athlete, sports injuries like sprains, strains, and joint dysfunction can sideline you quickly.

Neck Pain
Neck pain often develops from poor posture, spinal misalignment, or tension in the surrounding muscles. Left untreated, it can lead to stiffness, headaches, and radiating discomfort into the shoulders and arms. We use precise adjustments, soft tissue work, and targeted exercises to relieve pressure, restore range of motion, and address the underlying cause of your pain.

Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can stem from joint dysfunction, muscle strain, or referred pain from the neck and upper spine. Our approach identifies the true source of your discomfort and uses targeted adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and corrective exercises to restore mobility and reduce inflammation. Whether your pain is from an injury or repetitive use, we help you regain strength and function.
A successful return to sport requires more than pain relief, it requires proper functional recovery. Our rehab programs combine therapeutic exercise, mobility work, and chiropractic care to rebuild strength, coordination, and movement confidence after injury.
