Frequently Asked Questions

We know choosing a chiropractor is an important decision, and many of our Dunwoody patients come to us with the same questions before starting care. To help you feel confident and informed, we’ve answered some of the most common concerns we hear.

How do I know if I have an acute or chronic sports injury?

Acute injuries happen suddenly, typically with immediate pain, bruising, or restricted movement. Chronic injuries develop over time and may involve increasing pain, inflammation, or weakness in the affected area.

Can chiropractic care treat sports injuries after the initial RICE period?

Yes, while Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation (RICE) is effective in the first 24–48 hours, ongoing pain or loss of motion after that window should prompt a visit to a sports injury chiropractor for deeper treatment.

Can chiropractors treat both recent and long-standing (chronic) sports injuries?

Absolutely. Chiropractic care is effective for both recent injuries and long-standing conditions by addressing alignment, mobility, and structural imbalances.

What makes sports chiropractic different from traditional chiropractic care?

Sports chiropractic is specialized for athletic performance. It includes techniques like muscle alignment, rehabilitation exercises, and personalized injury prevention strategies, rather than generic adjustments alone.

Is corrective sports chiropractic only for athletes?

Not at all. While athletes benefit greatly, corrective chiropractic is ideal for anyone struggling with posture issues, chronic pain, or limited mobility.

How is corrective sports chiropractic different from regular chiropractic care?

Traditional chiropractic often focuses on immediate pain relief, while corrective sports chiropractic identifies and treats the root causes of dysfunction, helping prevent future injuries.

How long does it take to see results?

Many patients feel relief after their first session, but long-term correction and performance improvements often require a structured care plan.

Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor?

No referral is needed. You can schedule directly with our Dunwoody chiropractic clinic.
