Common sports injuries that the team treats at North Andover Chiropractic include:
Tennis elbow occurs when the tissue on the outside of your forearm and elbow becomes inflamed. Repetitive motions can irritate the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that help move your arm while playing sports.
The rotator cuff is the tissue surrounding your shoulder joint and upper back. Strain from sports like soft or tennis can create small tears in this tissue.
Tendinitis is a common complaint in nearly all sports, as there are tendons all around your body. It occurs when your tendons become inflamed and irritated. Running, tennis, golf, soccer, and basketball can all cause tendinitis in your heels, knees, elbows, and shoulders.
Your knee is a joint supported by a number of soft tissues. If a sports injury affects any part of the knee, it can interfere with your mobility.
