Sprains and strains are common soft-tissue injuries that affect the muscles, tendons, or ligaments. A sprain occurs when ligaments — the tissues connecting bones — are overstretched or torn, most often in the ankles, wrists, or knees. A straininvolves overstretching or tearing of muscles or tendons, typically caused by overuse or improper lifting. Both injuries can lead to pain, swelling, and reduced mobility. Without proper treatment, they may result in chronic weakness or discomfort that limits daily activity and overall performance.

Depending on the severity of the injury, your care plan will focus on the right level of treatment intensity. Some cases may require advanced medical therapies to promote deeper tissue repair and accelerate recovery, while others may benefit more from chiropractic adjustments, rehabilitation exercises, and laser therapy to restore mobility, build strength, and improve function. Each plan is customized to reduce inflammation, enhance healing, and prevent future re-injury — ensuring complete and lasting recovery.
