How soon after a sports injury should I be seen?
It is best to be evaluated as soon as possible. Early care helps control inflammation, prevents compensation patterns, and supports faster, more complete healing. Seek emergency care for suspected fractures, head injuries, or severe pain.
Can you help with old sports injuries?

Treatment may include chiropractic adjustments, tool-assisted soft tissue mobilization, ice, heat, electric stimulation, and targeted stretches and exercises.
How long does it take to recover from a sports injury?
Recovery time depends on the type and severity of the injury. Minor strains may improve within a few weeks, while more serious injuries require a longer course of care.
