Sports Injury Treatment from Our Pediatric Chiropractor in Kissimmee, FL

We all want our children to exercise and take part in fun sports activities. Although sports are a great way for our children to remain healthy and active, they can also be the cause of painful and debilitating injuries. According to Stanford Children's Health, over 3.5 million children are injured every year from playing sports.

At Buenaventura Lakes Chiropractic, we know just how prevalent youth sports injuries are. Our dedicated chiropractic team in Kissimmee, FL, are ready to help your children heal and get back to the sports they love in no time. Dr. Andres, our pediatric chiropractor, helps children recover from sports injuries naturally and without invasive surgery.

What Is a Common Sports Injury?

A sports injury can happen to anyone, anytime, and anywhere. Sports injuries can occur during team sports and during regular exercise such as weightlifting or track and field activities.

Some of the most common injuries that might require the help of a pediatric chiropractor include:

• Little league shoulder
• Torn rotator cuffs
• Achilles heel injuries
• Muscle strains, sprains, and ligament tears
• Shin splints
• Broken arms
• Concussions
• Tennis elbow

These injuries can happen during contact sports such as football, baseball, or soccer. Statistics show even trampolines and bicycling can lead to serious injuries.

How Can a Chiropractor in Kissimmee, FL, Help?

At Buenaventura Lakes, our chiropractor will determine the exact treatment your children need following their sports injuries by finding the root causes of their pain. 

For sports injuries, some of the treatments we might recommend include:

• Massage therapy to encourage blood flow and natural healing of the muscle and reduce inflammation
• Muscle stretches to relieve tension and spasms resulting from an injury
• Muscle exercises to increase mobility, which can be severely limited following a sports injury
• Spinal adjustments or decompression to alleviate pain from herniated or bulging discs or to correct spinal misalignments

All of these treatments can be safely done by a trained chiropractor, and can help your children heal from sports injuries in less time. In addition, our chiropractor in Kissimmee, FL, will recommend traditional healing methods for injuries including resting the injured area, cryotherapy, and compression to reduce inflammation, and elevation to encourage blood flow.
