Extremities

Sports chiropractic in Colorado Springs addresses how the joints of the body can lose their normal motion and position. This can be caused from repetitive motions, improper sitting, slips, falls, accidents, and other causes. Awareness of these types of problems has become more common with terms like "tennis elbow", "golfer's elbow", "runner's knee", "frozen shoulder", and "carpal tunnel syndrome."

Joint mobilization, like chiropractic care for the spine, is being used in the care of elbows, wrists, and other joints of the body. Helping to restore normal range of motion to joints seems to improve blood circulation, reduce scar tissue, and speed the healing process. At Thatcher Chiropractic, PC in Colorado Springs, we use joint mobilization, exercise / stretching and physical therapy modalities that often provides better and faster pain relief.
