Dr. Bone’s own background as a former college baseball player gives him a firsthand understanding of what it actually takes to return to sport with confidence rather than lingering hesitation. Whether it’s a fresh strain or a nagging issue that keeps resurfacing during training, our team treats the injury with your specific sport and goals in mind.

Common Symptoms
How Align Evaluates Sports Injuries
We assess the injured area itself alongside your broader movement patterns and biomechanics, since sports injuries often have as much to do with how you move as with the specific tissue that’s hurting. That means looking at strength, flexibility, and movement quality in the surrounding joints, not just the site of pain. Understanding why the injury happened, not only what’s currently hurting, is what allows us to help prevent it from recurring.
Our Approach to Care
Care commonly combines chiropractic adjustments to restore proper joint mechanics with Class IV laser therapy to help speed tissue healing and reduce inflammation. Corrective exercise and motion therapy are central to the plan as well, rebuilding strength, mobility, and movement patterns specific to your sport so you return stronger rather than just pain-free. We stage your return to activity based on how the injury is actually responding, not an arbitrary calendar.
Every Type of Care, Under One Roof
From chiropractic adjustments to laser therapy, massage, and corrective exercise, our team coordinates your entire care plan in one place instead of sending you elsewhere for each piece.

When to Seek Care
Minor soreness after a hard workout or game is a normal part of training and typically resolves within a couple of days. An injury deserves prompt evaluation when it causes noticeable swelling, limits your range of motion, or keeps you from performing at your normal level during activity. Pushing through pain without addressing its cause often turns a minor issue into a recurring one, so earlier evaluation tends to mean a faster, more complete return to your sport. If an injury has sidelined you more than once this season, that pattern alone is worth having assessed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you treat weekend athletes, or just competitive ones?
We treat athletes at every level, from casual weekend activity to competitive training, along with active adults dealing with injuries from everyday exercise. Your goals and activity level shape how we approach your care either way.
How quickly can I get back to my sport?
Timelines vary depending on the injury and its severity, but our goal is always to get you back to what you love as safely and efficiently as possible. We’ll give you realistic milestones once we understand the specifics of your injury.
Can you help prevent an injury from happening again, not just treat the current one?
Yes, that’s a core part of our approach. By identifying the movement patterns or weaknesses that contributed to the injury, we can build corrective exercise into your plan specifically aimed at reducing the odds of it recurring.
