Range of motion is crucial for performing everyday activities and maintaining an active lifestyle. At Academy Injury & Health Center, our team of skilled practitioners understands the importance of mobility and offers effective chiropractic solutions to improve your range of motion. Let’s explore how chiropractic care can help you move more freely and comfortably.
Understanding Range of Motion
Range of motion refers to the full movement potential of a joint, such as your shoulder or knee. Factors that can limit range of motion include:
- Joint stiffness or inflammation
- Muscle tension or weakness
- Poor posture
- Injuries or conditions like arthritis
- Lack of physical activity
Restricted range of motion can lead to pain, decreased function, and a reduced quality of life.
How Chiropractic Care Improves Range of Motion
Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to enhancing mobility. Here’s how our treatments can help:
1. Spinal Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments can:
- Restore proper alignment to the spine and joints
- Reduce pressure on nerves that may be causing pain or restricting movement
- Improve overall joint function
2. Soft Tissue Therapy
Techniques such as massage and myofascial release can:
- Relax tense muscles that may be limiting movement
- Break down scar tissue that restricts flexibility
- Improve blood circulation to promote healing
3. Stretching and Exercise Guidance
Our chiropractors can prescribe specific exercises and stretches to:
- Increase flexibility in targeted areas
- Strengthen supporting muscles
- Improve overall body awareness and coordination
