Boulder's extreme sports culture demands specialized recovery solutions. Our sports therapy protocols address common issues like trail running imbalances, cycling-related lower back pain, and climbing-induced shoulder strains.
We incorporate Graston technique for fascial release and Active Release Therapy (ART) to break down scar tissue in frequently overused muscle groups. The treatment tables in our Boulder clinic feature specialized positioning options to accommodate athletes' needs during therapy.
For ski season preparation, we offer preseason biomechanical evaluations to identify potential injury risks. Post-event recovery packages help competitors at events like the Bolder Boulder 10K return to training faster with reduced soreness.
All treatments include sport-specific stretching and strengthening recommendations for Colorado's varied terrain. We coordinate with local coaches and trainers to ensure continuity of care.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon before a race should I get adjusted?
We recommend scheduling your final pre-race tune-up 2-3 days before event day. This allows time for any temporary soreness to subside while maintaining optimal alignment for peak performance.
Can chiropractic help with altitude adaptation?
Yes. By improving nervous system function and circulation, adjustments can help mitigate common altitude symptoms like headaches and fatigue. Many of our patients report easier acclimatization when receiving care before high-altitude activities.
