Sports Injury in San Antonio TX: If you’re an athlete, you 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 you heal faster when you’ve suffered sports injuries and helps to prevent them.
Sports Injuries Can Limit Your 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. As an active person, it is important for you to take precautionary measures, but sometimes injuries happen. 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 decrease your 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 Not Treated
Chiropractors 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 Comprehensive Chiropractic & Physical Therapy, our trained staff will perform a full evaluation. We will construct a treatment plan to get you feeling your best and back to doing what you love.
Although many people think that chiropractic is solely limited to the spine, chiropractors treat and can help prevent injuries of the neck, back, shoulders, knees, ankles and more. 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. If you’re experiencing pain from a sports injury, consider seeing a chiropractor. You may want to schedule regular check-ups to prevent injuries and to keep your body performing properly.

Dr. Oliver prescribed a plan for me that has COMPLETELY worked and made all pain disappear. What sets him apart from others is that he also made a path to solve the underlying problem that caused the pain in the first place. His employees who take me through all the exercises are simply OUTSTANDING in manners and professionalism. I call them ‘my angels’.

Dr. Oliver and his staff are wonderful and extremely professional. I really appreciate that Dr. Oliver explains everything thoroughly and creates a treatment plan in order to get the best results. He also sets very realistic expectations as this is not a one and done type of practice. I also like having check-in sessions to see how I’m feeling and how my treatment can improve. I already feel so much better with their help and looking forward to continuing my treatment. I highly recommend them!

If I could give Dr. Charles Oliver and his staff more than 5 stars I definitely would! Dr. Oliver and his awesome staff are always welcoming, courteous and professional. I went to see Dr. Oliver for my poor posture, neck and back pain I’ve had for years. The treatment plan he has put in place for me has helped me tremendously. My pain has decreased and I can now sleep without pain.

I have had chronic headaches and neck pain since early childhood. I have been to 6 chiropractor’s in my life. Some gave me temporary relief of pain but they never took care of the underlying problem. In 2016, I learned about Dr. Oliver who is a Physical Therapist & a Chiropractor. I started going to see him and through his complete and thorough approach he is changing the curves in my spine. I rarely have a headache and only periodic neck pain when I haven’t done the exercises he taught me. I feel empowered that I can now do something to help myself! Recieving care from Dr. Oliver, who is both skilled and friendly, has been life changing for me. I write this review in hopes that others may find lasting relief for yourselves through Dr. Oliver’s complete approach.

I originally visited Integrative Medical for issues I was having with my back. After 3 sessions I felt the staff was just throwing me on a massage bed and had me do silly excericises similar to what I did in elementary school for stretches. I had explained my issues to a friend and she recommended me to try out Dr. Oliver. From the minute I walked in Dr. Oliver’s Office, I felt the staff seemed more professional. Dr. Oliver had up to date X-ray equipment that was more detailed oriented. He explained and showed more details to what was my problem with my back than what I got from Integrative Medical. Dr. Oliver would pop my neck and back into place, had me do more challenging excersises that actually strengthened my back, and had more state of the art equipment to treat people with. Needless to say, I left Integrative Medical to continue and complete my 30 sessions with Dr. Oliver. I felt more welcomed as well as more confident in what I was getting from Dr. Oliver than Integrative Medical. I would reccommend Dr. Oliver to any of my personal friends and family.

Dr. Oliver and staff are very professional and obviously care about their patients. I first arrived with a debilitating pinched nerve in my neck, and they made room for me the next day. The initial treatment, including the cold laser, gave me 90% relief by day 2! At my second appointment Dr. Oliver spent a lot of time with me reviewing my xrays and my condition, explaining why I was hurting and what he recommended my treatment should be. I signed up for ongoing treatments to help restore the curve in my neck. I am still in that process, and my neck has not had a pinched nerve in it since. It has been a couple of months now. I am grateful to the entire staff for their care and concern. They operate as a well-oiled machine and are extremely kind and helpful. I highly recommend them!

So I want to brag about Dr. Charles Oliver and his gang of merry men and women. They are an incredibly competent, genial and efficient organization. They are usually crowded. (Because they are good) but they make you feel like you are their most important client. My lower back was hurting so my primary doctor highly recommended Dr. Charles Oliver. After just a few visits using a few machines and the doc’s magic adjustments I am feeling much better.
