When most people think of chiropractic care, they think of the spine. But athletes and active adults know that performance depends on how every joint in the body moves. At Restorative Health and Performance in Dallas, chiropractor Dr. Mary Davis provides precise extremity adjustments to improve mobility, restore balance, and reduce pain in the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles.
​
What Are Extremity Adjustments?
​
Extremity adjustments focus on the joints of the arms and legs rather than the spine. These joints can become restricted or misaligned from repetitive movements, training, or everyday strain. When that happens, muscles have to work harder to compensate, which can lead to pain, tightness, or poor mechanics.
​
Dr. Mary uses gentle, controlled adjustments to restore proper motion to these joints. By improving joint alignment and function, the body can move more efficiently and recover more effectively.
​
Why Athletes Benefit From Extremity Adjustments
​
As a Dallas sports chiropractor, Dr. Mary often works with athletes who rely on full-body movement for performance. From throwers and lifters to runners and weekend warriors, extremity adjustments can make a noticeable difference in comfort and control.
​
These adjustments can help with:
​
-
Shoulder tightness or impingement
-
Elbow or wrist pain from repetitive use
-
Hip stiffness or clicking
-
Knee pain or instability
-
Ankle mobility or balance issues
-
Overuse injuries from training or competition
Improving joint motion in the arms and legs can also reduce stress on the spine and other areas, leading to better overall movement and performance.
​
What To Expect
​
Your visit begins with a focused movement assessment to identify which joints are restricted or not moving correctly. Dr. Mary will explain what she finds and use gentle adjustments to restore motion.
​
Treatment may be combined with soft tissue therapy, dry needling, cupping, or rehab exercises to support strength and stability around the joint. Every plan is tailored to your specific goals, sport, and activity level.
​
Get Back To Moving Comfortably
​
If pain or stiffness in your arms, legs, or joints is holding you back, extremity adjustments can help you move freely again. Dr. Mary Davis provides precise, effective care for athletes and active adults throughout Dallas.
