Chiropractic Care for Sports injuries
Back pain, including lower back pain, is a common issue affecting many individuals. It can range from a constant, dull ache to sudden, sharp pain that radiates down the leg. This discomfort can arise unexpectedly due to accidents, falls, or heavy lifting, or it may develop gradually due to age-related changes in the spine. Conditions like inflammatory arthritis and other medical issues can also contribute to back pain.
At Epic Life Chiropractic, we specialize in providing comprehensive care for all types of back pain. Dr. Jeff Grosskopf, our experienced chiropractor, utilizes the highly effective Torque Release Technique (TRT) to target and address the root causes of pain. By focusing on spinal alignment and nervous system function, we work to reduce pain and prevent it from becoming a chronic issue, helping you regain mobility and improve your overall well-being.



Our Sports injuries Treatment Approach
Epic Life Chiropractic is known for a care model built on precision, comfort, and results. We specialize in identifying hidden spinal injuries that often go overlooked and treating them through non-invasive methods that promote true healing. Our most commonly used technique is the Torque Release Technique, supported by MyoVision scanning and digital motion X-rays.
Torque Release Technique (TRT)
Accurate and Gentle
TRT uses the Integrator, a handheld instrument that delivers a controlled adjustment with pinpoint accuracy. It allows for comfortable care without twisting or cracking the spine.
Targets Nervous System Function
The nervous system controls nearly every function in the body. TRT supports nerve communication by correcting spinal subluxations and improving spinal alignment, which reduces stress and helps the body heal.
Safe for All Ages
This technique is ideal for those who want safe and gentle care. Patients of all ages, including student athletes and weekend warriors, benefit from its precision and light touch.
Effective for Sports Injuries
TRT is especially effective for joint strain, muscle imbalance, nerve irritation, and recurring pain caused by repetitive movement or impact injuries.
MyoVision Scanning
MyoVision scanning is one of the most important tools we use to find what other providers often overlook. It works by measuring the electrical activity of spinal muscles. When your body is compensating for a spinal ligament injury or misalignment, the surrounding muscles react by tensing or fatiguing. MyoVision helps us document these patterns and see the effects of nerve interference in real time.
This scan gives us a baseline for your spinal health and shows how your body responds to chiropractic care over time. It is non-invasive, safe for all ages, and often provides answers when traditional tests come up short.
Common Sports Injuries We Treat
Joint and Ligament Sprains
Overuse or acute injuries can strain ligaments in the shoulders, knees, ankles, or spine. We use precise adjustments to support alignment and improve healing.
Muscle Strain and Fatigue
Misalignments in the spine can contribute to muscle tension and imbalances. Chiropractic care improves coordination and reduces the risk of further strain.
Postural Imbalances
Athletes often develop asymmetries that lead to pain or reduced performance. We focus on correcting these patterns to improve movement efficiency.
Nerve Irritation
Nerve interference caused by spinal subluxations can reduce reaction time, coordination, and strength. Our care relieves nerve tension and restores proper function.
Recovery After Impact
Falls, collisions, or high-impact movements can cause joint restriction and inflammation. We restore proper joint movement and promote recovery through gentle care.
Activities Benefiting from Our Treatment
Our chiropractic care supports athletes of all levels—from weekend joggers and gym enthusiasts to high-level competitors. Whether you lift weights, run marathons, or play team sports, our care helps improve flexibility, speed up recovery, and reduce the risk of future injury.
