Injury Rehabilitation

Joint Mobility and Joint Stability are Essential for Injury Rehab

After an injury it is essential for joints to return to proper alignment. Chiropractic care is effective in restoring joint mobility whether that is spinal or in the extremities. A good rehab program will include exercises that target joint stability. This is a critical component to regain optimal performance following an injury.

Joint Stability for Injuries

The first step for achieving joint stability after an injury is to assess the joints for misalignment or structural defects caused by the injury. The Doctor will check the joint alignment and test for weakness, imbalances or deficits in soft-tissues (tendons, ligaments, muscles and cartilage). Correcting these deficits may require manipulation, stretching and facilitation. Once the joints are returned to proper alignment, joint stability is addressed. Specific exercises are prescribed to help restore function. These exercises target balance, proprioception, range of motion, flexibility, strength and endurance. In order to make a full recovery from an injury an athlete must fully participate in their rehab program.
