Planning to stay active outdoors this winter? While winter sports like sledding with kids, ice skating, ice fishing, and skiing provide fun for the whole family, they also come with a risk of injury. Protect yourself this season and experience relief if you do suffer an injury with the help of Advantage Spine and Disc. Our experienced chiropractor in Boise provides customized pain relief treatments to target common injuries from winter recreational activities. Read on to learn about some of the most common injuries and how we can help you find relief.

Sledding Spills Lead to Soreness

Sledding adventures with the kids often end in spills and tumbles into the snow. This can lead to general soreness, back pain, strained muscles, whiplash injuries, and more. Our chiropractor near you offers chiropractic adjustments that can get your neck and back realigned to reduce inflammation and discomfort. Massage therapy also helps muscles heal after strains.

Skating Mishaps Cause Sprains

Rolling an ankle or falling hard on the ice is all too easy when ice skating outdoors or indoors. This often leads to sprains and stiffness. We provide gentle joint manipulation combined with electrical stimulation or ultrasound therapy to reduce swelling and help stabilize joints like ankles and wrists after sprains.

Hitting the Slopes Risks Knee Injuries

Skiing and snowboarding place a lot of repetitive stress and torque on knees and shoulders. Falls and collisions with obstacles like moguls and trees also frequently cause knee ligament injuries. We help accelerate knee healing with pain relief treatments like light therapy and can provide knee braces for extra stability.
