Sports injury Myths You’ve Been Told By Doctors, Friends, And Social Media – That keep you in pain
Myth #1 - Play through the pain
We’ve all heard the shout from the side-line “you’re fine just walk it off” before. And I’m sure nine times out of ten you have got up and continued on the field, court or track.
But in the coming days and weeks, you’re still in pain and it won’t go away. That’s because by playing through the injury, not only was your performance drastically decreased on that day, but it has been since.
Through playing on you have also aggravated the injury and made it worse. What might have been just a small strain has now become a tear and could lead to you going under the surgeon’s knife.
That why I am here. As the leading sports injury expert in Rockland County, NY, I have countless experience in helping you avoid a trip to the hospital and getting you back to performing at your best with natural, non-evasive, and fast working methods.
Myth #2 - Sports injuries are contact related
This myth can be a bit of a double edged sword. Obviously some sporting injuries are going to be from a heavy contact or impact with the ground or someone else. But as the leading sports injury expert in Rockland County, NY, Some of the worst ACL tears I have seen have been from no contact at all!
In fact they have come from the athlete just stopping in a weird position! Normally I hear that after the injury happened the injured area didn’t feel that bad and they continued to play through it. But by the time they come to see me and my expert team they have made it far worse.
Just because you haven’t been hit doesn’t mean you are ok. That’s why I am the leading sports injury expert in Rockland county. I can help identify and rehabilitate that injury naturally and effectively. I want you to avoid the surgeons knife and a lengthy time on the side-lines.
Myth #3 - Athletes that train in the gym know what they're doing
You’ve probably seen people in the gym between sets looking like athletes so you assume they know what they are doing. You think they are more likely to avoid injury.
Well you could be wrong. As the leading sports injury expert in Rockland County, NY, I have seen hundreds of athletes that are regular gym goes who you would think know what they are doing. But the truth is they only work out the big muscles and not the ones that would actually have prevented their injury in the first place!
With my natural and non evasive approach I can help fix those niggling injuries and show you the correct way to train so that you can prevent them in the future.
