    Sports Injuries/ Joint Injuries

    Today’s minor injury is tommorow’s major injury waiting to happen!

    Flexibility could be considered one of the main indicators of our health. At birth and in our youth we are extremely flexible. As we age we tend to gradually lose flexibility. Any loss of motion is a loss of function and is therefore accompanied by a loss of health.  This may occur on a very small level at first but typically continues to spread and intensify, gradually adding up to further restriction of the joint. Injury frequently occurs when we are pushing the newly restricted limit of muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints. Suddenly we notice we can’t do what we used to be able to do and we don’t know how that happened.

    These restrictions can be a result of repetitive motions done hundreds or even thousands of times a day like typing, kicking a ball, running or even walking - especially when we have flattened arches. The other most common method is traumatic injury like a deep muscle bruise or a strain of a joint. Typically a truly healthy joint does not have restrictions and as such can absorb some abnormal movement before becoming injured however most joint injuries occur to previously “tweaked” joints. A small, minor injury creates a minor malfunction and an environment that is susceptible to injury which in turn leads to a more significant strain/sprain type of injury.  By utilizing a combination of  the following techniques Dr. Coonrad is able to aid your body in healing quickly - getting you back on the field as soon as possible.

  • SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION TECHNIQUE  Neuro-muscular re-education and Graston Technique are effective methods of releasing adhesions and scar tissue which develop as a result of strain/sprain injuries.Residual pain, swelling and loss of motion are signs that you are developing adhesions and scar tissue.These lesions must be reconditioned so that the joint will function as close to normal as possible.

    MANIPULATION When a joint is sprained/strained or injured the alignment of the joint can be altered.  For normal joint function to be restored the bones of the joint must be aligned properly. This can be accomplished easily and painlessly by utilizing gentle and effective spinal and extremity adjusting techniques.

    REHABILITATION Once a joint is injured the muscles, ligaments and tendons that support the joint must be rehabilitated so that joint function is restored as fully as possible. Frequently, simple at home exercise programs will be effective at restoring the integrity of the joint.


  • Corrective Exercises
    We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%.

  • Lifestyle Advice
    We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most.
  • Classical Homeopathy                                                                                       
  • Tamar Laderman and Linda Schefers Coonrad provide classical homeopathic care which enhances your bodies ability to heal itself.  Homeopathy is a centuries old healing method that utilizes diluted herbs, minerals and other substances to stimulate the body to heal itself.  Over 200 years of outstanding results give homeopathy a significant place in natural health care.
