When sports injuries happen, the last thing you want is for it to take forever to recover. You might have heard about one pro athlete or another recovering way faster than expected. Are they superhuman? Considering some of the feats they pull off, it sure seems like it, but when it comes to recovering from injury, there’s no magic to it. It’s all science. Our sports therapy chiropractor, Dr. Abdollah Nejad, can help you speed up sports injury recovery through various proven, effective, and powerful treatments available at ChiroSports USA in Union City and Pleasanton.

LightForce Laser Therapy for Injury Recovery

Laser therapy is a non-invasive and painless way to help your body recover from injury. It utilizes laser light at specific wavelengths backed by research to stimulate mitochondria and trigger the healing process all the way down to the cellular level. 

Laser therapy can provide both immediate and long-term pain relief and excels at helping your body recover from strains and sprains. It’s also used for joint swelling and myofascial pain.

Treatment will involve multiple sessions spaced out at intervals over the course of weeks to months, depending on your injury and how bad it is.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation for Injury Recovery

Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is the practice of stimulating muscle activity with a measured dose of electricity. Devices can be tuned for both slow twitch and fast twitch muscles, and treatment sessions can be tailored to meet individual needs. EMS can speed up injury recovery by reducing pain signals and boosting the release of endorphins.

Our team utilizes the Compex brand of EMS because they’re shown to be the best at pain reduction, speeding up recovery time, and helping your muscles get stronger faster. This brand has been paving the way for muscle stimulator technology for over 30 years and our athlete patients love the results.
