A burning in the shoulders, numbness in the arms and hands, and tightness in the neck are very common sensations for cyclists. These things might be easy to ignore at first, but if they come back over and over they can seriously interfere with both enjoyment and training. Upper and lower back problems are a common consequence of regular cycling. Can a Bellevue chiropractor like myself help with these problems?
The answer is absolutely! In addition, chiropractors can help prevent injuries, enhance speed, strength, and even efficiency for healthy cyclists. Athletes of all kinds and ages can find help with rehabilitation, maintenance, prevention, and treatment in the hands of a chiropractor.
Chiropractors expertise to help cyclists is in the musculoskeletal system. As you know as a cyclist, everything is very interconnected; from the ankle to the shoulder. The key is to look at each link of the chain and make sure that the body is working as a fluid system. In fact if you are under care of any kind and they are not addressing your entire body you are most likely going to continue having the same issues you are now. As a Bellevue chiropractor I daily work with other professionals such as medical doctors, PT's, massage therapists, and trainers to help my patients heal in the best way possible.
Solutions to problems that most cyclists experience usually requires a multi-dimensional treatment regimen. Chiropractic adjustments, massage, exercises, and stretches are a vital part of the healing process in most cases.
It is absolutely vital that patients do their part to help their recovery from cycling injuries or pain. I can help bring proper alignment back to the joints, but if there is nothing there to hold them there they will go right back, and you will not see the results you are looking for.
The last step in the process of working with any of my cyclist patients is to make sure that their bicycle is ergonomically fit for your body. Is the seat in the right place? Is it the right size? Are the handlebars properly fit? All of these play a huge part in reducing strain and preventing injury's while you cycle. I have people that I can refer you to, to help with this.
