I went to plenty of different doctors and nothing really helped until I decided to try a chiropractor, they are always accommodating to my schedule and I barely ever have to wait, always in and out and always feel better after an adjustment.
Sports Injury Rehabilitation in Shelby Charter Township, MI
Sports Injury Treatment in Shelby Charter Township: Athletes understand the numerous demands of participating in a sport. Putting your body through these activities, such as running, jumping or tackling, can result in painful tears, sprains and strains. Seeing a chiropractor can help athletes heal faster after suffering a sports injury and can prevent them.
Sports injuries can limit performance and cause pain:
The main reasons athletes suffer sports injuries include forceful impacts, repetitive motions, over-training and failure to warm up properly. This can happen in countless ways, depending on what activity you are doing or what sport you are playing in. It is important to take precautionary measures, but sometimes injuries can happen to the most physically active and experienced people. Often these conditions are a result of injuries suffered years or even decades ago that did not heal properly.
Children and teens tend to ignore what seem to be small injuries when they are active. But if an injury is left untreated, this can lead to chronic pain in other areas, that may not even be directly related to the focal point of the injury, such the knees, hips, back and neck. Many sports injuries are insufficiently treated and allowed to rest and heal, increasing the odds that they will cause chronic pain later in life. This can lead to pain, frustration and a decrease in athletic abilities.
Sports or training injuries can cause the following symptoms:
- Swelling
- Burning, dull pain
- Headaches
- Muscle Pains
- Inflammation
- Muscle Spasms
Sports injuries can cause further injuries if left untreated:
Although many people think that chiropractic is solely limited to the spine, Dr. Arnold treats and helps prevent injuries of the neck, back, shoulders, knees and ankles. When the spine is perfectly aligned, this can alleviate tension in the body, decreases inflammation and allows the nervous system to function optimally.
When the spine is aligned, vital nutrients, water and body can travel throughout the body easily. It can also increase the immune system, which is ideal for anyone with a busy and active lifestyle. This allows the body to function better and become less susceptible to injury.
Dr. Arnold can help athletes by relieving their pain and helping them heal faster after an injury. Many athletes try to mask pain with medication, but this can lead to further risk and damage to the body. At Washington Family Chiropractic, Dr. Arnold will perform a full evaluation. Dr. Arnold will construct a customized treatment plan to get you feeling your best and back to doing what you love.

I have been seeing Dr. Arnold for 12 + years. I used to think a chiropractor just ‘cracked’ your back. Although he has helped me with neck pain, there probably isn’t a part of my body he hasn’t helped! With nutrition information, exercises and adjustments my whole mind and body are helped. I was diagnosed with MS 20 years ago and tell everyone that without chiropractic I wouldn’t be as healthy as I am now. It has kept my symptoms at bay. The staff is so friendly and helpful that it is hard to leave there without a smile on your face! Thanks to everyone there!

My wife Sandy and both of our young adult children go to Dr. Arnold for adjustments..they are extremely happy with him, they have shown great results in the relief of migraine headaches, backaches, numbness in arms and sleeping much better at night. The staff and atmosphere of the office is very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Dr. Arnold and his staff to ensure that you will be receiving the best of Chiropractic care ,from a very kind and caring Dr. and staff….

Dr. Duane has done a fantastic job of helping me with my back and shoulder pain. He has also helped out my son in the past when he had a sports related injury with his back. He provides detailed personal care that you don’t find with other chiropractors. He also provides exercise and nutritional advice. If you are seeking chiropractic care I highly recommend you pay him a visit.

When I first arrived at the office I could not even stand up! I was assessed and had the first adjustment and immediately could stand straighter and in much less pain! Now on maintenance visits – can’t recommend this office and Dr. Arnold enough!!

Professional, courteous, knowledgeable and genuinely caring! I initially came 3 years ago because of back pain from a car accident and thinking I just needed a quick fix. Have been coming every week since then and feel better than I have in years. I would highly recommend Dr. Arnold to anyone seeking a better quality of life and health.

I’m always very pleased with the care I receive from Dr. Arnold. He is extremely professional and genuinely cares about his patients. The office is also very welcoming and comfortable, so I enjoy going every week!

Dr. Arnold has helped me whenever a problem flares up and I find myself almost unable to move. If I would keep going after he gets me walking again, I would be so much better. When I stop going and after 3-6 months need to return, Dr. Arnold is not judgemental. His staff are also just as nice. I forget my appointment at times, and they never make me feel that I have thrown things off. Dr. Arnold and his staff personify the word ” Caregivers”.

Dr. Arnold is not only a great chiropractor, but he is also a person with great values and character. I fully trust him with my care and I admire his passion for healing people. He has helped me with some of my back and neck pain as well as with tips on how to change to a healthier lifestyle. Thank you Dr. Arnold for being such a positive influence in my life!
