Sports Injury Treatment for Athletes
Sports injuries are a common concern for athletes of all levels. Whether you're training on the Indian Creek Trail, lifting at Fit House KC, or competing at a high level, injuries can sideline you. At Move Muscle & Joint in Overland Park, we specialize in helping athletes recover quickly and return to sport stronger than before.
Sports injuries can be acute (sudden trauma like sprains and strains) or overuse injuries (gradual onset from repetitive stress like tendinitis and runner's knee). Common sports injuries include ACL tears, meniscus tears, rotator cuff injuries, tennis elbow, shin splints, plantar fasciitis, hamstring strains, and ankle sprains.
Many sports injuries result from biomechanical issues, muscle imbalances, or previous injuries that weren't fully rehabilitated. Our whole-body approach not only accelerates recovery but also helps prevent future injuries.
Our Sports Injury Treatment Approach
We use evidence-based treatments to help athletes recover faster and return to sport safely:
Chiropractic Adjustments
Precise adjustments improve joint mechanics, restore proper alignment, and optimize biomechanics. By addressing dysfunction throughout the kinetic chain, we help athletes move more efficiently.
Physical Therapy
Sport-specific rehabilitation exercises strengthen injured tissues, correct movement patterns, and address muscle imbalances. We create progressive return-to-sport programs that safely rebuild strength and endurance.
Shockwave Therapy
Advanced acoustic wave technology accelerates healing in tendons, ligaments, and soft tissues. Particularly effective for chronic overuse injuries like tendinitis and plantar fasciitis.
