Whether you are a weekend warrior, a high school athlete, or a regular at the gym, sports injuries sideline you from the activities you love. Wheat Chiropractic treats the full range of sports injuries—sprained ankles, rotator cuff strains, runner's knee, tennis elbow, and back injuries—using a combination of chiropractic adjusting, soft-tissue work, electric stimulation, and rehabilitative exercise. The focus is not just pain relief but restoring proper biomechanics so the injury does not return. Dr. Galbraith has worked with athletes of all levels and understands the urgency of getting back in the game safely. Treatment plans include return-to-play milestones, sport-specific exercises, and guidance on training modifications, so you recover fully rather than rushing back and re-injuring yourself. Drug-free care keeps athletes off NSAIDs and avoids masking pain that signals a problem.
