Foot and ankle adjustments for athletic performance

Today Dr. Smith from The Joint in Sugar House and Dr. Lloyd from Cottonwood Heights presented chiropractic care for foot and ankle biomechanics to the Westminster College track team.

Chiropractic care is a very important part of a training regimen for any serious athlete. With chiropractic care, an athlete enjoys three main benefits:
  1. You perform with more symmetry from one side to the next under chiropractic care. 
  2. You have less drag when you perform at your sport. 
  3. Your body enjoys better proprioception under chiropractic care.
With a chiropractic adjustment of the feet and ankles, you enjoy an immediate sense of better range of motion. This palpable feeling of having the joints better lubricated makes you appreciate the increased feedback that you feel when the nerve signals from your feet are sending information back to the brain. You feel more sure of where you plant your feet. You take each step with confidence.

This form of chiropractic care can be found in our two The Joint clinic locations. Ours is in Cottonwood Heights, just off of the 2000 East exit on the I215 freeway. The other clinic is in the heart of Sugar House, and is perhaps the most popular chiropractic clinic in Salt Lake City.
