Whether you’re a runner, high school baseball, basketball or football player, or die-hard CrossFitter, you want to perform at your athletic best. Chiropractic care is the secret weapon athletes of all levels use to stay off the sidelines and at the top of their game.
We usually have athletes come into the practice with an injury, and then we let them know they can perform better by getting chiropractic care. That’s because if the joints and spine are aligned properly, not only will a neurological function work better but also the orientation of the muscles is at the proper angle, so those muscles can fire quicker. An athlete will have more explosiveness and adapt better to their surroundings,” said Dr. Kelch.
A Focus on Extremity Adjustments
One of the primary things that we focus on in our office is the extremity adjustment (e.g. knee, ankle, shoulder, wrist, etc.). Absolute Wellness is one of the few offices in the Peoria area with a Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioner (CCEP). Naturally, we also focus on the spine, because that’s where all the neurological function begins.
Trainer-Provided Stretches & Exercises
Another benefit athletes can enjoy as a patient here is the services of a local trainer who comes to the practice a few days a week. The trainer can help strengthen or stretch those areas in need of care.
