We spend our time training for the season by workouts, practices but often overlook going to the Chiropractor.

The #1 fear of every athlete out there is getting hurt and having to sit out for part of a season or even the whole season. Now some injuries cannot be prevented but the majority of injuries are due to repetitive stress to their bodies. Each sport has different kinds of stress as well.

You cannot FEEL repetitive overuse injuries happening until they have been there for a while.

Athletic injures are often caused by improper biomechanics or muscle imbalances within the spine.

Neuro-Structural Chiropractic Care for children of all ages are of tremendous benefit for the treatment and prevention of injuries and to maximize performance potential. With our exam and analysis we are confident we can find the weak areas in the spine and be able to prevent them from becoming major injuries.

At Balanced Health, we focus on Neuro-Structural correction by utilizing Full Spine X-rays (when necessary), Nervous System Scans, and a Structural Analysis in an effort to detect and correct the structural abnormalities that are the cause or these repetitive injuries. We focus on correcting your foundation, making it strong and healthy to deal with the stress of sports on the body.

By observing an athlete in action, a Chiropractor can often detect and prevent a structural problem that can lead to injury or poor performance.

Health Living For Your Family!!!

One thing I have learned in becoming a new mom in the last year and a half is my #1 priority is the health of my loved ones. It also seemed like such a chore to do the extra things like working out and eating healthy until I made myself a priority too!

You walk daily, work out, stretch, and eat healthy. You’re taking good care of yourself by coming to get adjusted. What about your loved ones? Do you think they could benefit from getting corrective chiropractic care??

Do you know someone dealing with something? Let them know they don’t have to live with it. They can get healthy too! Coming in with your family can be so much fun helping them get healthy with you at the same time!

Your chances of your health success depend on it!!
