Chiropractors Address Sports Injuries
The good news is Dr. Casey Phillips treats sports injuries. Many people feel that it’s better to consult with a chiropractor over a sports injury because regular physicians normally prescribe steroids, muscle relaxers, and pain killers for injuries while an experienced chiropractor understands that the injury may affect other parts of the body, and will address those as well.
What Kinds of Sports Injuries Do We Care for?
Dr. Phillips deals with almost any kind of sports injury, but not every single kind. For example, if you chip or lose a tooth playing sports, you should see a dentist. If you don’t wear protective goggles and incur an eye injury playing sports, you should see your eye doctor or visit the emergency room. But for most other sports injuries, the Dr. Phillips is your best choice.
We care for injuries such as:
- Pinched nerves
- Whiplash
- Strains
- Sciatica
- Herniated discs
- Neck pain
- “Locked” joints

How a Chiropractor Can Help With Sports Injuries
