Why are these injuries occurring in each Sport?
Most injuries come from collisions with contact sports, such as football and soccer. Whether with fellow competitors or the ground, this is a traumatic blow to our bodies, almost on par with a motor vehicle accident and whiplash.
With non-contact sports, such as running, golf, or tennis, most injuries come from either overuse or misuse of our bodies.

Chiropractic Treatment at Coy Chiropractic in Kingwood
Every person and every injury is different, so there is truly no way to give specifics due to our personal variations.
Taking all of that into consideration Dr. Coy will give you personalized care specific to your condition and to your tolerance.
Although, he will begin by addressing the tight muscles and getting them to relax or at least be more relaxed. He will address both the muscles and then the vertebra or the top level and the deeper level.
Dr. Coy has found that when the muscles, and the person, are more relaxed the treatments are more effective and that “correction” can come on much quicker and longer lasting.
He, may, end the session with stretches and ensure that you know how to do these stretches, at home.
Dr. Coy will perform a mechanical massage and then will adjust the involved vertebra, on everyone who comes in for care.
When should I see Kingwood Chiropractor Dr. Jeff Coy?
There are a couple of answers to this question, one is for corrective care and maybe the most important answer is for preventative care.
Corrective care is when you have just injured yourself.
Please make an exerted effort to get in as quickly as possible. When injuries occur to the muscles and in turn the joints/vertebra beginning corrective care will result in the quickest and most efficient recovery possible.
The thinking of “I will wait until the pain goes away” is not effective and can be very detrimental to your health and your recovery.
Preventive care is just what it sounds like: care to prevent major injuries.
All professional and college teams have access to Chiropractic care and use both before and after competition.
Over the years, Kingwood Chiropractor Dr. Coy has treated lots of athletes and have been able to either keep them in action or been able to return them to competition well before their team’s “trainers” predicted.
Plus keep the weekend warriors “playing” on the weekends and working during the week.
Why should I go to Coy Chiropractic? I was told I just needed to get a massage.
Dr. Coy has many years of experience treating lots of sports injuries and keeping athletes doing what they like to do; play their specific sport.
Although, Dr. Coy will utilize a form of massage and muscle work to help relax the muscles, or the over lying soft tissue to aid in the needed re-alignment of the structure underneath, or the spinal vertebra.
Which is where the specialized and specific Chiropractic manipulation/adjustment comes into play
The main problem comes from the deeper structures: the spinal vertebra.
When they are not functioning properly motion, both spinal and our pelvis and legs can’t move as free and smooth as they should and we begin to move in a more stressful motion. Which will lead to tightness, soreness, and eventually pain
With the specific Chiropractic manipulation helping the vertebra and their joints reposition back to where they should be, their function and in turn your function will be more efficient and pain-free.
With personalized care designed to address the cause of your injury, Dr Coy with specific Chiropractic care can:
- relieve pain
- promote healing
- improve your strength
- improve your flexibility
- lessen the chance of serious future injuries.
Dr. Coy can help get you back to performing your favorite sport.
