One major benefit to visiting a chiropractor during the winter sports season includes helping treat soft tissue injuries and joint pain.
As the temperature drops and the atmospheric pressure increases, the fluids in your joints move around less freely. Your muscles may end up in a state of constant contraction or compression.
All of this can lead to severe discomfort, and make muscles and joints painful to use. Chiropractic care eases stiffness in the whole body and keeps joints and muscles relaxed. This flexibility also relieves any pains that may flare up because of the cold weather.
If you're experiencing joint and/or muscle pain, we're here to help you find relief. At Potocki Family Chiropractor, we offer a comprehensive approach to your well-being. Contact us today at (916)-536-0400 or visit our website at buff.ly/3LS3Nfu. We are here to help!
