What Every Beach Volleyball Player Should Know About Chiropractic Care
Beach volleyball is growing in popularity! This great exercise gets you outdoors for a team activity that's lots of fun and great exercise. Whether you're on a team at Capt'n Bill's or just playing your friends at the beach, beach volleyball is a great summer sport. And chiropractic care can be your best friend in improving your beach volleyball performance.
Chiropractors Aid the AVP
The Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) was founded in 1983 to promote beach volleyball, which became an official sport of the Olympic Games in 1996. Right from the beginning, the AVP hired a chiropractor as its Director of Sports Medicine. And chiropractors accompany the AVP team each year as it tours the country.
One Olympic silver medalist, April Ross, grew up with a chiropractor father.
"It's always pleasant going in for an adjustment," Ross says. "I get a lot of whiplash diving around in the sand and as long as I get in regularly to see
[my chiropractor] I'm able to deal with it so that I can continue to compete. I don't know what I would do without her."
Beach Volleyball Packs a Lot of Impact
Even athletes who are well-conditioned subject their bodies to a lot of impact playing beach volleyball. Jumping and running barefoot in the sand stresses the neck, back, hip, feet and ankles. And the rotator cuff and other shoulder structures take a pounding, too.
A beach volleyball player covers a lot of territory in the sand. With no foot support, the chances of injury increase. And winning teams often go on to play more games without adequate rest in between. Injuries are not uncommon in the strenuous sport of beach volleyball.
Chiropractic Care Benefits Beach Volleyball Players
While sand is softer than a wooden floor, jumping and running puts strain on your back and other parts of your body. You can reduce the chance of injury and recover more quickly from any beach volleyball injury with the help of chiropractic care.
Regular chiropractic care improves overall health, giving you an edge on your game.
Chiropractic adjustments can reduce stress and realign the spine to prevent serious problems.
