Sports Injury Treatment with Shockwave and Cold Wave Therapy
Sports injuries often require more focused treatment due to the enhanced nature of how they occur. Frequently, a higher performance level tends to exacerbate damage, which means the treatment for successful recovery is more than rest, pain relief medicine, and icing. This specific treatment is where chiropractic care for sports injury treatment can be a significant advantage, especially in rehabilitation. Read below to see how South Lake Wellness & Injury Center in Clermont, FL, can help you.
Beyond Immediate Care
The problem with emergency services and general physicians is that the treatment often stops once the injury is stabilized. In serious cases, surgery is applied for significant repair, but the strategy relies on the body healing itself. That doesn’t do much to help a patient return to full performance again. Resting and waiting for the body to work can build up scar tissue, limiting mobility and performance.
Chiropractic treatments focus on the body as a whole and strive to restore full recovery. Our chiropractor will provide proactive assistance to help the body heal right, and it makes a huge difference in performance restoration.
Shockwave Therapy and Cold Laser Therapy
Advanced chiropractic treatments work well on soft tissue strains, sprains, and tears. These treatments can be applied to connective tissue and help the body move inner resources to the injured area.
Shockwave Therapy involves wave application through transmitters to stimulate the muscle tissue and connective tissue being targeted. This electrostimulation improves circulation and directly impacts pain and inflammation. This method can also be applied to the bones and tendons, drawing circulation to the area for an emphasized response. A key factor in this technique is that it charges up the blood supply to the targeted site, which removes damaged cells, to deliver nutrients faster for repair.
Cold Laser Therapy, as the name implies, uses laser technology for a similar approach, providing targeted treatment to areas of the body that need a kickstart in healing. This method is particularly useful for concentrated pain, as well as for improving circulation. A laser is a low-temperature approach that can reach internal body parts through the skin to provide the positive reaction needed.
