Sports Chiropractic for Runners, Golfers & Active Adults in Plymouth
When your body is the tool you rely on — whether you’re training for a race, trying to keep your golf swing consistent, or just staying active — small problems turn into big limitations fast.
I’ve been there myself. As a competitive triathlete, mountain biker, sailor, paddleboarder, and lifelong athlete, I understand how frustrating it is when pain or restricted movement keeps you from doing what you love.
That’s why care at Active Family Chiropractic is practical and performance-minded: restore motion, calm the irritation, and get you back to training without a pile of therapies you don’t need.
New patient exam: $89
Regular adjustment: $60
We accept cash, credit cards, Venmo, HSA, and FSA. Packages available.
How we approach sports chiropractic
We look at how your spine and joints are actually moving, then restore proper function so you can train and recover better. The focus is performance and durability — not passive treatment for its own sake.
In practice that means:
-
An exam tied to your sport and where you are in the season
-
Specific adjustments where restricted joints are limiting motion or loading other tissues
-
Simple guidance that fits training weeks, not a complicated homework list
-
Walk-in access for regulars so care can follow hard sessions or race blocks
Sports chiropractic uses the same core skills as regular chiropractic. The difference is the lens: return to run, return to swing, stay consistent through a training cycle, and keep small tweaks from becoming time off.
Who this helps
-
Athletes and active people in and around Plymouth who want to keep going:
-
Runners with recurring back, hip, or neck issues
-
Golfers with low-back or mid-back pain during or after rounds
-
Cyclists with neck pain or hand numbness from time in the saddle
-
Triathletes and multi-sport athletes managing load across disciplines
-
Pickleball, lifting, and weekend-warrior athletes who keep “tweaking” the same area
-
Active adults who train hard and recover slower than they used to
-
You don’t need to be elite. You need a body that cooperates with the sport you care about.
What to Expect
-
Sport-focused conversation — What you do, how often, what’s limiting you, and what “better” means for your next race, season, or week of training.
-
Exam — Joint motion, related areas that feed the problem (hips, pelvis, mid-back, neck), and patterns that show up under load.
-
Clear plan — What I found, how often to come in while things settle, and how to use walk-in hours once you’re established.
-
Care that fits training — Many athletes continue care through training cycles; we adjust intensity and timing based on where you are in the season.
New patients book the first exam. After that, walk-in windows make it realistic to get in after a hard week without rearranging your whole calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can chiropractic help me recover faster from sports injuries?
In many cases, yes. Restoring normal joint motion and reducing protective muscle tension often helps athletes return to training more comfortably. We still start with an exam — not every injury is the same problem.
Do you work with golfers who have back pain?
Yes. Low-back and mid-back pain during or after the golf swing is one of the more common issues we see. Specific adjustments frequently make a noticeable difference when restricted segments are part of the problem.
I’m training for a race — is it safe to get adjusted?
Yes. Many of our patients continue care throughout training cycles. We adjust the approach based on where you are in your season, including harder training blocks and recovery weeks.
How is sports chiropractic different from regular chiropractic?
The techniques are similar. The focus is performance, recovery, and keeping you doing the activities that matter to you — with timing and plans that respect training load.
Can I walk in around my training schedule?
New patients need a scheduled first exam. Once you’re established, published walk-in hours are designed for people whose weeks don’t fit neat appointment slots.
What does it cost?
New patient exam is $89. Regular adjustments are $60.
We accept cash, credit cards, Venmo, HSA, and FSA. Itemized statements are available if you want to submit to insurance for possible reimbursement.
If sport or training is part of how you live — not just something you’ll “get back to someday” — your care should match that. Straightforward exam, specific adjustments, clear pricing, and hours that respect training life.
