Advanced Chiropractic Care in Chicago for Running Injuries, Runner's Knee Pain & Back Pain

Chicago Chiropractic Treatment Services for Knee Injures & Knee Pain

Chiropractic care can help runners run longer and more efficiently by addressing musculoskeletal issues prior to the onset of injury and/or chronic conditions. Chiropractic can prevent running injuries because it emphasizes proper alignment and body mechanics. One of the most common ailments that bring runners into a chiropractic office would be a pelvic misalignment. Misalignment of the spine and pelvis puts unnecessary pressure and tension on one particular body part rather than an equal distribution of pressure. There are several causes of improper alignment. These include: running in the same direction on the same course every day, running often on slanted services, such as a beach, and not replacing shoes every few hundred miles.
