Sports Chiropractor in Tulsa
Chiropractic Care for Optimal Sports Performance and Recovery
Sports Chiropractor in Tulsa: Athletes understand the demands of participating in their given sport. They put their bodies through rigorous activities day after day to excel at their sports. Although a good portion of sports chiropractic is to assist athletes in their recovery from injuries sustained from overuse and overworking, sports chiropractic also focuses on improving athletic performance. It is also important to take precautionary measures in order to prevent injuries from happening in the future. Dr. Keith Ryan not only assists professional and amateur athletes but patients who participate in all athletic activities through the use of sports chiropractic.

Sports Injuries Can Cause Further Injuries if Left Untreated
Sports injuries can happen to the most physically active and experienced people. Oftentimes, these conditions are a result of injuries suffered weeks, months or years ago that never properly healed. Children and teens tend to ignore what they think are small injuries because they do not want to stop playing their sport. Ignoring these small injuries, however, can eventually lead to long term pain. Many sports injuries are treated insufficiently or aren’t given the proper time to rest and heal, increasing the odds that they will cause chronic pain later in life. This can lead to frustration and a decrease in athletic abilities.
