Sports Injury Rehabilitation Treatment
Whitmire Chiropractic in Salem, OR

Sports Injury Treatment in Salem ORChiropractor in Salem, OR:  Athletes understand the numerous demands of participating in a sport. Putting the body through rigorous activities, such as running, jumping or tackling, can result in painful tears, sprains and strains. Seeing a Dr. Whitmire can help patients to heal faster when they have suffered sports injuries and can also help patients to prevent them.

Sports injuries can limit performance and cause pain:

The main reasons athletes suffer sports injuries include forceful impacts, repetitive motions, over-training and failure to warm up properly. This can happen in countless ways, depending on what activity they are doing or what sport they are playing in. As an active person, it is important for the athlete to take precautionary measures, however, sometimes injuries happen and they are often the result of injuries suffered years or even decades ago that did not heal properly.

Dr. Whitmire sees a lot of children and teens that tend to ignore what seem to be small injuries when they are active. But if these injuries are left untreated, they can lead to chronic pain in other areas, that may not even be directly related to the focal point of the injury, such the knees, hips, back and neck. Many sports injuries are insufficiently treated and allowed to rest and heal, increasing the odds that they will cause chronic pain later in life. This can lead to pain, frustration and decrease in athletic abilities.

  • Swelling
  • Burning, dull pain
  • Headaches

At Whitmire Chiropractic, our trained staff will perform a full evaluation. We will construct a treatment plan to get each patient feeling their best and back to doing what they love.

Although many people think that chiropractic is solely limited to the spine, Dr. Whtmire can help with the care and prevention of injuries to the neck, back, shoulders, knees and ankles.

Dr. Whitmire has a first rate staff and has always been very attentive to the needs of my family.  I really appreciate the full service he offers including massage therapists and physical therapy on site!  His staff has been flexible with scheduling, and worked my daughter in on the same day when she was in an accident.  In all, they have my trust!

40 yrs of MIGRAINES have taught me that if I start with a ‘aura’ then a massive headache will follow and nothing but medication and time will take it away. However, I was in Salem the other day and started with an aura and I did not have my imitrex medication with me. I asked Dr. Whitmire if he could try to do something. He worked with me, doing a few different things. Then I took 10 minutes laying down with a hotpack….and AMAZINGLY …I avoided a full-blown migraine. Dr. Whitmire taught me a certain point to press and how to rotate my head…..and so far, I’ve stopped the progression of ‘aura to migraine’ 3 more times. Love this place!!! If you suffer from migraines I highly recommend that you try it out.

Always a seamless and thorough experience when I go in. Dr. Whitmire is thorough, good at educating his patient, and gets things fixed every time! I feel an inch taller, more mobility, more knowledge on how to take care of my injury. Thanks Doc! Great staff too!

I’ve been so skeptical of chiropractic work until I talked with Dr. Whitmore. He has may years of education, practice, experience, and most of all he has people skills. He offers his patients information about what the treatment is, how it’s applied, what benefits there are, and an open mind. His knowledge of sports medicine really takes his work to the next level for patients with severe injuries. I would recommend his office to everyone.

I’ve had physical therapy many times in the past, and visited chiropractors and massage therapists, but the fact that this place combines all three into one location and appointment system is brilliant. The chiropractor himself is very gentle and understanding about my fibromyalgia, which not all chiropractors really understand.

This is the best experience I have had with a chiropractor. The doctor explained everything he was doing very thoroughly and professionally and helped me to understand why I was experiencing certain aches and pains and how I could alleviate those using massage and stretching techniques on my own. I felt comfortable and safe in this clean and friendly environment and will definitely be back for weekly follow up! I already feel so much better after my first appointment today. Highly recommend Dr. Whitmire and is team at the clinic!
