What is Sports Chiropractic, and how is it different from a regular adjustment?

Sports Chiropractic is a specialized branch focusing on the biomechanics of the athletic body. We analyze the entire kinetic chain—feet, ankles, knees, hips, and shoulders—in the context of your specific sport. Our goal is to enhance performance, prevent injuries, and accelerate recovery by ensuring every joint and muscle works synergistically, which goes beyond standard spinal care.

Do I have to be injured to see a Sports Chiropractor in Mandeville?

Absolutely not. While we expertly treat acute and chronic injuries, most high-performing athletes see us for prevention and optimization. Regular adjustments maintain peak function, keep joint motion free, and ensure your nervous system is optimized for speed, strength, and precision.

Does Sports Chiropractic help with non-spinal issues like Plantar Fasciitis or Rotator Cuff pain?

Yes, definitively. We specialize in extremity adjusting, addressing the joints in the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. Many non-spinal issues, like Plantar Fasciitis, are linked to biomechanical faults in the spine or pelvis, which we treat to address the root cause, not just the symptom.

I'm training for the Covington-area marathon. Can you help with my running gait?

Absolutely. We often work with runners in Mandeville and Covington to analyze and correct gait issues. Misalignment in the pelvis or feet can lead to common running pains like IT Band Syndrome or Runner's Knee. We improve your running efficiency and reduce repetitive stress through targeted adjustments and specific corrective exercises.

Do professional sports teams actually use chiropractors?

Yes, the use of chiropractic care is widespread across elite sports. Every single team in the NFL, MLB, and NBA employs or refers to team chiropractors, recognizing that regular care is essential for managing the physical stress of competition, enhancing reaction time, and maintaining structural integrity.

The Secret Weapon of Champions: Why Athletes Get Adjusted

The world's greatest athletes know that an aligned spine means an optimized nervous system: the command center for speed, strength, and precision. They rely on chiropractic care not for injury repair, but for competitive advantage.

“When I walk out of the clinic, I feel like I'm about three inches taller and everything's in place. And as long as I see the chiropractor, I feel like I'm one step ahead of the game.”

- Tom Brady, 7-Time Super Bowl Champion

‍

“I don’t always win gold, but when I do I get adjusted first. Stay healthy my friends.”
‍
- Usain Bolt, World Record Holder, Olympic Gold Medalist

“Most injuries require chiropractic care. It works better for me than anything else.”

-Jerry Rice, NFL Hall of Fame Wide Receiver

"I've been going to chiropractors for as long as I can remember. It's as important to my training as practicing my swing."

-Tiger Woods, Golf champion

At Limitless Chiropractic, we rely on evidence-based treatment protocols. Research consistently shows that specialized sports chiropractic care is the missing link between your current performance and your next personal best.

11% more range of motion is 100% better performance
Joint restriction limits power and increases injury risk. Chiropractic adjustments are scientifically proven to release locked-up joints. Studies show athletes who receive care experience an average 11% increase in range of motion in critical areas like the hips and shoulders—translating directly to a deeper squat, a faster sprint, or a more powerful swing.
Injury prevention is our defense strategy
We identify imbalances before they fail. Research involving professional athletes found that those receiving regular chiropractic care experienced fewer lower limb injuries over the course of a season compared to control groups. This proactive care keeps you off the sidelines and in the game.‍
Enhanced Strength and neuromuscular drive
Your nervous system controls your muscle fiber recruitment. A single session of spinal manipulation has been shown in recent studies to increase lower-limb strength and cortical drive, meaning your muscles fire faster and harder, giving you an immediate boost in explosive power.
