Sports Injury Patients Manage Back Pain without Medication

Dr. Thompson is a certified chiropractic sports physician, which means he uses manual adjustment and sports rehabilitation therapy to help patients recover from sports injury, including knee pain and shoulder pain.

If you are new to our practice, we invite you to explore our website to learn more about the difference chiropractic care can make for your life. Back pain, neck pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, headaches and migraines can make it difficult for you to perform well at work and enjoy life to the fullest. Whether you are recovering from a personal injury or a sports injury, spinal adjustment and sports rehabilitation can naturally relieve pain and restore a full range of movement, flexibility and motion to your body.

We believe in a whole body approach to wellness. This means that we do not use prescription painkillers to cover up back pain, neck pain, headaches, migraines, or fibromyalgia pain. Instead, Dr. Thompson treats the underlying cause for this pain. By correcting the musculoskeletal problem underlying a personal injury, we help patients live active, pain-free lives.

Dr. Thompson’s approach to treating sciatica is a great example of how chiropractic really makes a difference. Sciatica is caused by a slipped disc in the lower back, which compresses the sciatic nerve. While prescription painkillers can temporarily relieve pain from sciatica, medication cannot correct the underlying cause. Dr. Thompson uses spinal adjustment to restore alignment, relieving pressure on the sciatic nerve. Thanks to spinal adjustment, our patients can live a pain-free life without dependency on prescription painkillers.

Following auto accidents, one of the most common injuries is whiplash, characterized by neck pain, headaches, migraines, dizziness, and difficulty concentrating. Dr. Thompson has helped hundreds of Iowa City patients safely recover from whiplash following auto accidents through non-invasive adjustment. While auto accidents can cause traumatic damage to your musculoskeletal system, the side effects of whiplash may not become evident for weeks or even months. It is essential that you seek treatment immediately from a chiropractor. The faster we can diagnose the damage done to your cervical spine and soft tissue, the faster we can begin the healing process, and help you avoid unnecessary, debilitating pain.
