Sports injury treatment in Nashua.
Whether it’s a weekend-league tweak or an overuse injury that’s been building for months, sports injuries respond best when the whole chain is treated, not just the sore spot. Dr. Herner’s own path into chiropractic began with a sports injury, and his approach is built around getting you back to what you love doing.
Common injuries we see.
From new sprains to nagging overuse, these are everyday visits here.
Sprains and strains
Ankles, knees, shoulders, and backs pushed past their limit, painful, swollen, or unstable.
Overuse injuries
Tendonitis, shin splints, and joint irritation from repetition without recovery.
Recurring tightness
The pull or pinch that comes back every time you ramp up training.
How Dr. Herner treats sports injuries.
Treat the injury, then fix the mechanics that caused it, so it stays fixed.
Joint adjustments
Restoring proper motion so the injured area stops compensating and re-irritating.
Graston & taping
Instrument-assisted soft-tissue work for scar tissue, plus Kinesio taping that supports you while you keep moving.
Recovery modalities
Ultrasound and electric stimulation to calm pain and support tissue healing between sessions.
Common questions.
Can I keep training while I recover?
Often yes, modified. Kinesio taping and a plan that works around your sport usually beat total rest. Dr. Herner will tell you honestly what to pause and what is safe to continue.
Do you only treat back injuries?
No. Chiropractic care here covers extremity joints too, shoulders, knees, wrists, ankles, and feet, along with the spine.
