A ligament sprain occurs when the tough, fibrous tissues connecting bones are stretched or turn due to excessive force, such as sudden twisting, falling, or impact. Sprains commonly affect the ankles, knees, wrists, and shoulders, leading to symptoms such as pain, swelling bruising, and restricted movement. Depending on the severity, ligament sprains range from mild overstretching to complete tears that may require medical intervention. Chiropractic care can be a beneficial treatment for ligament sprains, focusing on reducing inflammation, restoring joint mobility, and supporting the body’s natural healing process. Chiropractors use gentle adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitative exercises to stabilize the affected area. They may also recommend cold therapy, bracing, or proprioceptive training to enhance recovery and prevent future injuries.
Chiropractic care provides proven pain relief from a wide range of common sport injuries, from ligament sprains to tennis elbow to groin pain. It’s not just injured athletes who visit chiropractors. An estimated 90 percent of all world-class athletes routinely use chiropractic care to prevent injuries and boost performance. To schedule an appointment, please call the Raya Clinic at 860-621-2225.
