FAQ

Our clinic specializes in musculoskeletal treatments of the entire body. We can treat head to toe and have various training and certifications to properly diagnose and treat many injuries and conditions. We regularly manage strains and sprains, disc injuries, extremity or spinal joint issues, nerve pain, headaches, jaw issues, pain in your shoulder, wrist, ankle, knee, hip, hand, and of course, back and neck pain! Our full-service treatment plans can treat your injuries from start to finish. We are more than an adjustment!

Our clinic is interdisciplinary and conservatively minded in managing conditions. Our collaborative team will gather medical history before providing any treatment and can work with almost anyone to improve how they move and feel. Our team will offer effective treatments and provide relief while being safe for your body. We are selective with what treatments we use and have a wide range of tools to help you with. Oregon Sports and Family Chiropractic is confident in meeting every patient where they are and offering practical and helpful advice and treatment. We use chiropractic adjustments to create freedom of movement and decrease pain. They are a helpful tool, but we use them selectively and when adjusting is deemed safe for your condition.

We’ll comprehensively assess your needs and condition and explain personalized solutions. Generally, a blend of relief with some post-treatment soreness is anticipated, but results will vary depending on your condition. As you progress, treatment and exercise will produce less post-treatment soreness and faster recovery. We sometimes can create mild soreness or sensitivity with soft tissue work, but so anticipate better movement and no more than a day of soreness, for example. Treatment varies between patients depending on medical necessity, comfort level, and patient safety. We generally perform a rehab assessment with one of our trainers and develop an achievable exercise program tailored to your mobility and movement goals and needs.

Our Chiropractic providers offer soft tissue, adjustment and mobilization techniques, exercise therapy, and Class IV laser therapy. We don’t have to use adjustments to have improvement, especially if the patient does not prefer to be adjusted with their treatment plan. We offer traditional Oriental Acupuncture with an orthopedic and sports medicine focus that can manage a wide range of conditions and overlaps well with chiropractic care. Our rehab specialists provide high level rehabilitation and exercise therapy and are able to meet anyone where they are with their movement abilities. Massage therapy is provided by Licensed Massage Therapists who are also Licensed Chiropractic Assistants. All of our providers take multiple continuing education courses throughout the year and are passionate about offering the best techniques to help your recovery.

Depending on the issue, acute cases generally take 1-3 weeks to resolve, while more chronic issues will take longer to peel back the layers. Our treatment plans are based on your goals, your condition, and our assessment. We are here to help you as much or as little as you need, and we can easily roll up our sleeves to tackle long-standing issues or serve as quick relaxation treatment and everything in between. We are fine with one or two treatments if that is all that you need, or we can roll up our sleeves and tackle long standing issues.

We offer full service rehabilitation for prehab and rehab treatment plans for surgery. We feel that the stronger you can be before surgery, the stronger you will be after surgery. If you are seeing us after surgery, we will take a functional approach, gearing your exercise program to restore your capacity and meet the needs your life demands. Our treatment plans will fit safely with your physician’s recommendations, and we are very comfortable collaborating with your physician’s office regarding your treatment.

Chiropractic, acupuncture, massage, and exercise therapy are safe for pregnant and postpartum patients. We will take a cautious but effective approach with all treatment provided to pregnant and postpartum patients and strive to increase strength, maintain, regain movement and ability, and support pregnancy and recovery for the mother. Our tables are specialized to adapt to a pregnant abdomen and can provide gentle traction to relieve lower back pain and pressure, especially during the last trimester. We have specialized pillows to allow an expecting mother to still lay face down during massage therapy or acupuncture. Our rehab team is well versed in core and pelvic floor strengthening, along with restoring functional movement after delivery.

Yes! We take a functional (real world) movement approach, with developmental kinesiology as the backbone of our rehab protocols. Our training looks at how you move as a whole and then works with safe and practical exercises to raise your floor and cause upstream improvement to your condition.

We use the Certified Functional Strength Coach (CFSC) and Pain-Free Performance Strength Coach (PPSC) programs, which teach patients the fundamentals of coaching, movement, and programming. We also utilize Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), which teaches developmental kinesiology, in other words, the study of how the body moves from years 0-2.

Combined with additional training, our rehab specialists are well-versed in teaching you how to exercise safely. In addition, they are all board-certified chiropractic assistants (CA). In addition to these certifications, our trainers are continually taking new classes to bring the best training techniques and methods to our office. We can also co-manage your case with physical therapy, as we tend to approach movement and loading of the body slightly differently, and may provide a different lens to benefit your treatment and improvement.
