Executive ER: Chiropractic Care Helps Sports Injuries Heal Faster


BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., July 8, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Executive ER in Beverly Hills, California is encouraging sports injury patients to add chiropractic care to their rehabilitation program. According to chiropractor and clinic director Dr. Daniel Jacobsen, chiropractic care is essential to helping restore proper alignment to the spine and relieving back pain. Executive ER provides sports injury rehab treatments for athletes. These treatments typically combine physical therapy and spinal injury rehab to provide natural back pain relief. Dr. Jacobsen also provides treatment for athletes who are training for summer races.

Beverly Hills chiropractor Dr. Daniel Jacobsen is encouraging sports injury patients to seek prompt chiropractic care to help treat their injuries. Dr. Jacobsen says that a combination of chiropractic adjustments with physical therapy provide long-lasting spinal injury rehab and natural pain relief.

Executive ER is the first chiropractic clinic to offer an urgent care emergency room for treating sport injury patients using non-invasive, drug-free treatments. "Spinal injury rehab has made a tremendous difference for my patients who sustain sports injuries," said Dr. Jacobsen. "Even casual athletes can suffer a herniated disc, a repetitive motion injury, or a strained muscle. By combining physical therapy treatments with adjustments, we can help correct the underlying cause for injuries and provide long-lasting pain relief."

According to Dr. Jacobsen, many sports injuries are repetitive motion injuries, such as tennis elbow. This injury causes small tendons in the elbow to tear, leading to pain and soreness. Dr. Jacobsen works closely to identify the underlying cause and also relieve pain.

"A misalignment of the spine may be causing an incorrect motion, which is a contributing factor for tennis elbow pain," said Dr. Jacobsen. "Physiotherapy treatments and adjustments can help patients safely recover. A change in equipment or minor adjustments to the swing can also help. My goal is to both relieve the injury's pain and also correct the underlying problem to prevent future injury."

Dr. Jacobsen also treats many runners for plantar fasciitis. Inflammation in the thick tissues along the arch of the foot causes swelling, pain and soreness. Dr. Jacobsen recommends massage therapy to release tension trapped in the fascia. A properly fitted pair of running shoes or orthotics may also make a difference for plantar fasciitis pain.

As part of the clinic's sports injury rehab services, Dr. Jacobsen encourages athletes to add chiropractic care to their training routines. According to Dr. Jacobsen, incorporating sports massage, physiotherapy and regular adjustments can enhance athletes' performance for major summer road races.

"Summer is a great time to get active in our state's major races," said Dr. Jacobsen. "Regular adjustments and physiotherapy can help prepare the body for race day, reducing the risk for injuries and enhancing overall performance."

Executive ER serves athletes in the West Hollywood, Bel Air, Westwood and Studio City communities. In addition to sports therapy, the practice also provides ADL (Activities of Daily Living) therapy for debilitating injuries.
