Athletes push their bodies to perform at a high level, and sometimes that comes with pain, stiffness, or injury. Whether it’s a pulled muscle, sore back, or nagging shoulder that won’t fully recover, these issues can limit performance and make training frustrating.
​
At Restorative Health and Performance in Dallas, chiropractor Dr. Mary Davis helps athletes and active adults recover from sports injuries, move better, and stay strong. Her goal is not only to relieve pain but also to restore proper movement patterns so you can perform your best.
​
Chiropractic Care Designed For Athletes
​
As a Dallas sports chiropractor, Dr. Mary understands the unique physical demands of training and competition. She combines precise chiropractic adjustments with soft tissue therapy, dry needling, cupping, and active rehab to help the body heal and move efficiently.
​
Each treatment plan is built around your sport, your injury, and your goals. Whether you’re preparing for a season, recovering from a setback, or just want to move without pain, care is always personalized and results-driven.
​
Common Sports Injuries Dr. Mary Treats
​
Dr. Mary regularly helps athletes and active adults with:
​
-
Neck and back pain from lifting, twisting, or contact
-
Shoulder pain from throwing, swimming, or overhead movement
-
Hip and groin strain from running, cutting, or jumping
-
Knee pain related to alignment or overuse
-
Ankle sprains and foot pain from repetitive stress
-
Muscle tightness or limited mobility after intense training
-
Recurrent injuries that never seem to fully heal
Even small movement restrictions can affect performance. By improving mobility, balance, and muscle activation, chiropractic care helps your body move the way it was designed to.
​
How Chiropractic Helps With Sports Injury Recovery
​
Sports chiropractic focuses on restoring joint alignment and improving how the body functions as a unit. When one area is tight or restricted, it can create stress elsewhere and lead to compensation injuries.
​
Dr. Mary’s approach helps by:
​
-
Reducing inflammation and pain
-
Restoring normal range of motion
-
Improving muscle balance and coordination
-
Supporting faster recovery and return to play
-
Preventing future injuries through better movement patterns
Her combination of manual therapy and active rehab gives athletes the tools they need to stay healthy and perform with confidence.
​
Performance And Prevention
​
Dr. Mary’s work goes beyond injury recovery. Many athletes visit her regularly to keep their bodies moving well and to avoid setbacks before they happen.
​
Performance-based chiropractic care can help you:
​
-
Improve flexibility and strength
-
Enhance balance and stability
-
Increase joint efficiency and control
-
Recover faster between training sessions
-
Maintain consistent, pain-free movement throughout the season
For many athletes, chiropractic care becomes part of their long-term performance plan.
​
What To Expect During Your Visit
​
Your first appointment at Restorative Health and Performance starts with a detailed conversation about your sport, goals, and current limitations. Dr. Mary will evaluate your movement, test strength and mobility, and identify the areas that need attention.
​
From there, she’ll explain what she finds, create a customized plan, and often begin treatment the same day. Each visit is one-on-one, combining chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue work with corrective exercises designed to support your recovery and performance.
​
Chiropractic For All Levels Of Athletes
​
Dr. Mary works with competitive athletes, weekend warriors, and anyone who enjoys an active lifestyle. Her care is tailored to meet you where you are — whether that means returning to sport after injury, improving movement quality, or maintaining your edge during training.
​
You do not have to be a professional athlete to benefit from performance-based chiropractic care. If you train, move, and want to feel your best, this approach can help.
