Taking the Pain Out of Competing with Myofascial Release
May 1, 2020
If you’ve ever developed shin splints, damaged or torn your rotator cuff, or overstretched your Achilles tendon, most likely you have needed or been treated with myofascial release or sports therapy. Not limited to athletes alone, injuries often attributed to sporting activities can happen to literally anyone. At Chattanooga Integrated Medicine Center, Dr. Hall specializes in clinical Kinesiology (study of body movement) and has treated many athletes and non-athletes alike, helping them avoid surgery and get back into the game.
Stephanie, here on staff at CIMC is a perfect example. Nearly a year ago, Stephanie suffered a traumatic break in her upper arm, shattering the bones. It was a long road to recovery. But with the help of Regenerative Therapy and laser therapy, she has made a full and complete comeback, now taking to the ski slopes again- and she avoided surgery! With the help of integrated medicine, Stephanie, and many like her are getting their lives back as well as their favorite activities.
Our approach to Myofascial Release which is essentially a branch of orthopedics, concentrates on the treatment of various injuries either from collision, overuse of the joints, or other strains and sprains. The concentration is often focused on knees, hips, shoulders, wrists and ankles. With the correct series of treatments, designed for the individual, we can treat chronic and acute injuries.
Whether you are an athlete trying to stay ahead of your game with preventative therapies, or you’ve suffered an injury of some sort, call us for an appointment and a complete evaluation.
