Sports Injury Treatment in Colorado & Arizona

We treat sprains, strains, tendon problems and overuse injuries, including the ones that built quietly until one session made them obvious. At Mountain View Pain Center, Chiropractic, Physical Therapy, Pain Management and Acupuncture work from one chart in the same clinic, so your plan can change week to week without anyone waiting on records.

Same-week appointments are typically available.

Who treats a sports injury?

Begin with someone who treats musculoskeletal injury: a chiropractor, a physical therapist or a Pain Management provider. The first visit is an examination and a history, not a treatment plan handed to you at the door. What happens next depends on what that finds.

Sport and training injuries are mostly a Physical Therapy problem, sometimes with dry needling for the muscle that will not release. Chiropractic care and Acupuncture join the plan when joint mechanics or muscle guarding are holding you back.

Go to the ER or call 911 for sudden severe pain after trauma, an obvious deformity, or inability to move the joint.

Injuries we see

  • Sprains and strains
  • Tendon problems: tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow and plantar fasciitis
  • Shoulder pain: rotator cuff, labrum and impingement
  • Knee pain: patellofemoral pain syndrome (“runner’s knee”), meniscus, tendon problems and ligament sprains
  • Neck pain and whiplash from contact sports
  • Hip pain

How a sports injury gets treated here

The first visit is an examination and a history, not a treatment plan handed to you at the door.

  • Physical Therapy. Restoring the movement the injury took away, then rebuilding the strength that protects it. This is the backbone of most injury recovery.
  • Chiropractic care. Joints that have stopped moving properly and the muscle guarding around them.
  • Pain Management. When pain is too high for rehabilitation to be possible, or when imaging shows something an injection can address. Joint injections and trigger point injections are available at every clinic.
  • Acupuncture. For pain that is widespread, or that arrives with poor sleep and tension the rest of the plan is not reaching. Treatments are done in private rooms.
  • Imaging referral when it changes the plan, and a straight answer about when it does not.

All four run in the same clinic and work from one chart, which matters more with an injury than with anything else: the plan changes week to week, and it changes faster when nobody has to wait for records.

Why the first weeks count

Tissue that is not moved properly heals short and stiff, and pain that is not addressed early is more likely to still be there months later. Neither of those is a reason to panic. Both are reasons to be evaluated, not to wait and see. An evaluation gives you a baseline with no commitment to treatment, and if nothing is wrong we will tell you that.

A sudden increase in training volume or intensity, weakness in the muscles that support the joint and poor mechanics during lifting or sport swings are common contributors.

Paying for it

Cost is the reason most people wait, so here it is plainly.

Health insurance. We accept most major plans in both states: see insurance we accept, and verify your benefits before your first visit, not after.

Workers' compensation. Handled directly at every clinic in Colorado and Arizona, for every service line, with the documentation the claim needs.
