yelp review for sports chiropractic in Wilmington

I started seeing Dr. Cowan in February 2024, at the referral of my primary care physician. I was pleased to speak with Dr. Cowan about my pain levels, the onset of pain, and what may or may not exacerbate the pain. (He doesn't know it, but he cured me of my fear of getting my back cracked. He's amazing!) Dr. Cowan and his staff are great listeners and accommodating, and they make you feel like you didn't go to a doctor's office. In the past year, I have made strides in my rehabilitation journey and I have this office to thank for it.

Dr. Cowan is great! He explained to me the problem and fixed it. He also gave me exercises which really helped. If you are ever in an auto accident I would recommend him. The staff was very polite and professional as well.

How Sports Injury Care Works

Chiropractors have taken on a more advanced role in sports science since understanding the neuromusculoskeletal system can help increase performance and prevent the breakdown of an athlete's body. Any physical trauma, on or off the field, can produce physical stress and shift the spine's vertebra. These shifts are called subluxations and significantly impact pain, fatigue, recovery, performance, and overall health. If left untreated, a misaligned spine, even the slightest kink, or a postural issue can cause aches, low energy, and other severe conditions throughout your body.
