Every MLB Team Has a Chiropractor on Staff | Sports Chiropractor in West Omaha, NE
Hey there, Dr. Jeremiah Sample from Family First Chiropractic. I’m here today to talk to you about why every MLB team has a chiropractor on staff. Let’s get into how chiropractic can help keep your athlete playing longer with less injuries.
How Chiropractic Care Helps Youth Athletes
Now, according to the American Family Physician Journal, up to 36% of all child hospital visits involve sports and recreational activities. So it’s a big reason why kids are having to see a doctor. Now, with chiropractic care what we can do is look for misalignments in the spine that are causing nervous system pressure. This pressure is reducing your ability to heal, causing less range of motion, and restricting your capabilities on the field. Chiropractic care has been shown to increase proprioception and balance by up to 20%. So when it’s for baseball, there’s a lot of throwing, running and catching. Hand eye coordination can be the difference between hitting that home run or catching that strikeout. Now, if your child is experiencing injuries or you want to learn how to perform better yourself, be it on the baseball field, the softball field or in a sport in general, please contact us!
So just like the big leaguers, chiropractic care is critical in the healing process to get athletes of all kinds back to the sport they love!
