Playing through pain instead of understanding what's causing it can be very damaging, and this time of year is usually when we see this happen. Practices ramp up quickly, and shoulders, elbows, knees, ankles, and backs often start speaking up a few weeks in.
At Chiropractic Performance Solutions, Dr. Karl Tarkanyi specializes in sport and occupational injuries, and the work starts with identifying the biomechanical source rather than repeatedly quieting the symptom.
Depending on what is found during the biomechanical evaluation, that can involve Active Release Technique for the soft tissues, chiropractic adjustments for the joints, and home exercises to build stability. Which pieces get used comes down to the individual.
If something's been nagging for weeks or keeps returning, that's often a sign the underlying issue hasn't been addressed yet. New patients can begin with a free, no-obligation phone consultation with Dr. Karl.
