Has your weight lifting or cross-training routine left you with sore muscles or out-of-control spasms? Maybe you have a shoulder issue you’ve been working around for the past few months? If Epsom salt baths and short intervals of rest have not cleared up the problem, it may be time to seek out a whole-body specialist. Many people think chiropractic care can only help with back and neck pain, but the truth is that chiropractic adjustments can help the whole body function and heal itself more efficiently…muscles included!

If you’re serious about fitness, you know that a certain amount of pain is part of the process. Good workouts should push you to your limits, and muscle soreness the next day is usually the hallmark of an effective workout. There’s a difference between good pain and bad pain, but even good pain can be out-of-proportion if your nervous system is not functioning properly.
Muscles are fibrous bands of tissue that help the body move and maintain position. How and what those muscles do is dependent on the messages they receive and send through the nervous system. Impulses sent from the brain communicate with each muscle through a complex network of nerve pathways. Every impulse involved in your workout is carried through the spinal cord to each end point in the body. All muscle function and recovery is dependent on the nervous system functioning properly. Blocked nerve pathways can prevent your muscles from functioning and healing themselves properly.
You don’t have to be experiencing back pain to have problems resulting from spinal misalignment. Misaligned vertebrae, also known as vertebral subluxations, can compress nerve pathways. This can inhibit communication within your central nervous system and suppress muscle function. Such subluxations can result from spinal compression, injury, muscle tension, or even just sitting improperly for long hours of the day. A visit to a chiropractor can help you ensure your workouts and other routines aren’t leading to poor mechanical function of the spine and other parts of your musculo-skeletal system.
Fascia Damage and Muscle Strains
Dr. Doyle has successfully treated many patients with sports-related and sports-type conditions, such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, muscle strains, and more. Fascia damage tends to respond well to myofascial release therapy and other integrative therapies. Acupuncture can also be helpful with musculo-skeletal problems and muscle spasms, as it is known to improve circulatory and nerve function.
