Sports Injuries and Joint Injuries

Sports Injuries

Denver Chiropractic office of Dr. Randy EldridgeFrom professional athletes to weekend warriors, from young to old, and for all those active baby boomers in between, Eldridge Chiropractic specializes in treating sports injuries including repetitive stress sports injuries such as tennis elbow, shin splints, shoulder problems from repetitive golf swings, hamstring injuries, rotator cuff problems, plantar fasciitis and the myriad of physical problems faced by runners, swimmers, skaters, skiers, boarders, etc.

In addition to chiropractic and a number of supportive therapies, such as acupuncture, massage, and spinal distraction, we find that we get particularly excellent sports injury results with Active Release Technique, a non-invasive treatment that not only mitigates pain, but corrects underlying problems and adhesions, and — most importantly — can help avoid the need for surgery.

"Active Release Technique saved me from knee surgery! The doctors were telling me I couldn't play again, but I proved then wrong. I recommend my teammates as well as my students to Active Release for a quick recovery from any injury."
- Tommy Lips- Professional Soccer Player

ART can also improve sports performance from golfing to tennis to running.  Restoring proper muscle function and movement enables the body to perform at its most efficient level. Improved muscle function also means improved reaction times. ART allows the body to do what you ask of it when you need it!

Thanks to Dr. Eldridge’s Active Release treatment, I went from being barely able to run, to placing #23 out of 206 in my age category in the San Francisco Half Marathon! I had been seeing an orthopedic doctor and had done 15 physical therapy sessions with no success.  After only 8 ART treatments, I was back to running and training for the half marathon.  I think this treatment procedure is incredibly beneficial.  Truly “right on” for an athlete’s recovery.

One of the longest practitioners of Active Release Technique (ART) in Denver, Dr. Eldridge was privileged to work at the Iron Man Triathlon in Kona, Hawaii, providing ART therapy with Dr. Leahy, the founder of ART.

Eldridge Chiropractic is also one of the few Denver chiropractic offices to have a medical doctor on staff.  Allison M. Fall, M.D. is affiliated with the American College of Sports medicine, has done research in joint and knee rehabilitation, and has published works on rehab medicine.

Joint Injuries

Knees, hips, shoulders, ankles, wrists, elbows – are all wonders of nature in their intricate constructions and amazing functioning, but they are also subject to pain and dysfunction from sports injury, repetitive stress, falls, aging, etc.

Many times, in addition to the joint problem itself, the muscles surrounding the joints get adhesions or scar tissue building up on the overused muscles.  This affects the “balance” of the joint and leads to greater problems. 

However, joint pain and restricted range of motion are not a “normal” part of aging. And no one has to live with them. It is possible to not only relieve pain, but to restore use of the affected area.

There are many ways of alleviating pain and restoring function in addition to chiropractic adjustments. 

Active Release Technique (ART) is particularly good for joint pain from sports injuries or joint injuries.  ART restores mobility and function to the joint by balancing the muscles.  Acupuncture and Cold Laser healing therapies are also excellent. 

If you are experiencing pain or restricted movement from a sports injury or joint problem, Eldridge Chiropractic can help.

"Thanks for taking care of me. My leg is feeling way better!"
- Len Dale White, Former USC touchdown record holder and now professional football player with the Tennessee Titans

"As an active person, injury is not an option. However, unforeseeable circumstances arise. When I dislocated my shoulder lifting weights, I was determined to find a treatment that would allow me to continue my training while rehabilitating the problem. I would not have recovered so quickly had it not been for the Active Release Treatments provided by Dr. Eldridge and his staff."
 - Christa VandeZande Rost

I want to thank Dr. Eldridge so much for how he has helped me. My knee hurt for over three years. After three treatments by Dr. Eldridge I was amazed that my knee is virtually pain free. I had forgotten how good it felt to be able to walk without constant pain
