Sports injuries occur from a combination of sudden incidents and gradual factors.

  • Overuse and repetitive movements
  • Incorrect form or biomechanics
  • Inadequate warm-up or stretching
  • Sudden impacts or trauma
  • Muscle imbalances or weakness
  • Fatigue and overtraining

Chiropractic Adjustments for Pain Relief

Targeted chiropractic adjustments address sports injuries by restoring spinal and joint alignment, reducing strain, and enhancing athletic function. These gentle techniques alleviate pain and nerve compression, facilitating a faster return to training.

Soft Tissue Therapy

We use manual therapies like myofascial release and deep tissue massage to reduce muscle tension and scar tissue from sports injuries, which are vital for recovery. These techniques improve blood flow and release trigger points, enhancing overall performance.

Corrective Exercises & Rehabilitation

Strengthening and stability training prevents reinjury by enhancing neck support and range of motion. Our stretching, strengthening, and balance exercises for active individuals improve posture and stability, reducing stiffness and recurring pain.

Spinal Decompression Therapy

Our spinal decompression therapy gently stretches the spine, relieving pressure on discs and nerves to address sports-related spinal injuries. This process facilitates the flow of nutrients, reducing pain and promoting faster healing.

Sports-Specific Care for Safe Return to Play

Your sport is unique, and so is your recovery. That's why we emphasize individualized recovery programs specifically tailored to your sport, facilitating a swift and safe return to play while minimizing reinjury risk.

Read and Review Our Testimonials

"I sought treatment at NorthEast Chiropractic Center for my low back and leg pains. After a very thorough examination, Dr. Osenga developed a treatment plan that combined chiropractic adjustments, therapy and massage. I am no longer in pain and I'm feeling so much better. I am eating healthier, walking/exercising again AND have lost 30 pounds! I wish I had tried chiropractic care sooner."

"I was having trouble with my lower back and shoulder. I was stiff and sore a lot. I would try to stretch and take medications to ease the discomfort. They did not fix the problem. The care I have received at NorthEast Chiropractic Center has helped a lot. My discomfort level went way down and I now am sleeping better as well. I think that being shown the proper ways to stretch has helped a lot. Dr. Osenga showed a lot of interest in my care. I would say chiropractic care has a lot to offer. Dr. "

​Jim C.

"I came in with very extreme shoulder and neck pain and stiffness. I had not tried any treatment before receiving chiropractic care at NorthEast Chiropractic Center. My pain has gone from a 10+ down to 1 or 2. It feels almost 100% better. Dr. Osenga suggested that I receive massage therapy and adjustments. The combination of those two was very effective for my case. The care team were all every helpful and friendly at NorthEast Chiropractic Center."

Amanda A.

"Originally I came into NorthEast Chiropractic Center due to numbness and tingling in both my legs, back pain in my lower to mid back, and pain in my hips. I had already tried physical therapy, steroid injection, and several at home remedies. A couple of the treatments provided temporary relief. I had never had a chiropractor prior to Dr. Osenga. I didn't believe that it actually could work. Dr. Osenga and is staff are very professional and provide excellent care! I actually have improved energy "

Davanna S.

"Thinking about my experience at Dr. Adam Osenga' s office has been excellent. I started out with severe neck pain due to four car accidents. My motion from side to side was extremely restricted. Upon movement it sounded like gravel and he even mentioned "concrete". It was so true and felt that bed. The computer usage has taken its toll on my neck and shoulders. I started with adjustments and it has been amazing to see and actually feel the progress. I really noticed that the heat and electrodes after the adjustment, completed the adjustment. As we moved forward I also worked with getting neck massages prior, and that was amazing. I feel like I am no longer seizing up! The staff at NorthEast Chiropractic Center is outstanding to work with for Payments (Insurance), scheduling and are all so wonderful.

Please let Dr. Adam Osenga help you to feel amazing too!

Thank you Dr. Adam!"

"I won a trip to see the chiropractor at the Fort Wayne Women's Expo. I've never been to one before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. From others I just knew they could 'crack' your neck and back and make you feel better if you had pain. I am glad I came. Dr. Osenga was very nice and explained 'chiropractic' in a whole. He went over therapy in a way I understood and made me feel comfortable. The Roller Table was awesome too!"

Chantelle D.

"I have been coming to see Dr. Osenga for almost a year. He is a very caring and understanding doctor. My pain has decreased greatly by coming there. The medical massage is also very beneficial. All the staff is welcoming and kind. They go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. Thank you!"
