Sports Chiropractic in Stanford-le-Hope
An ache that gets in the way of football. A shoulder that complains during a gym session. A return to running that isn’t going quite as planned. When movement matters to you, even a small setback can be frustrating.
Stanford-le-Hope Chiropractor Dr Mason Taylor-Hall and our sports therapist provide care shaped around your activity and your goals. Whether you compete, train regularly or enjoy staying active at the weekend, we’ll take the time to understand what’s bothering you and how it affects the things you want to do.
NEW PATIENTS
Care That Starts with How You Move
Dr Mason knows what it’s like to spend time away from sport. A back injury during his years as a semi-professional footballer first led him to hands-on healthcare. Today, he brings that perspective to his work as your chiropractor.
Your chiropractic visit at Prime Spine Chiropractic begins with a conversation about your symptoms, training and previous injuries, followed by a musculoskeletal examination. Dr Mason may look at your posture, joint movement and movements used in your sport. From there, he’ll explain his findings and discuss whether chiropractic care is suitable for you. If your injury needs another kind of assessment or care, he’ll tell you.
Care may include hands-on methods, exercises and practical advice about activity between visits. The aim is to address the movement or pain that brought you in, with a plan that fits your day-to-day life.
Sports Therapy for Muscles and Movement
Sports therapy brings another option to your care at the clinic. Our sports therapist works with you one-to-one, focusing on how your muscles and body move. Sessions may include soft tissue work, mobility exercises, strength and stability work, or movement retraining.
Depending on your needs, your therapist may also use a massage gun, instrument-assisted soft tissue techniques, cupping, taping or electrical muscle stimulation. You won’t be given every technique on a list. Your therapist will talk through what may be appropriate for you and why.
Some people book while managing a minor sports injury or returning to activity. Others want help with muscle tension after a demanding spell of training. When you get in touch, you can discuss which service best fits your needs.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
We’ll ask about your health, your activity and what you’d like to work towards. Your appointment will then be shaped by the care you’re receiving. If you’re seeing the sports therapist, wear comfortable clothing; you may be asked to uncover the area being assessed, and we provide towels for privacy.
You’ll have a chance to ask questions and talk about what to do between visits. Whether your goal is getting back to the gym, playing football or moving more comfortably on your weekend walks, we’ll make sure you understand the proposed plan.
