Chiropractic Care for Runners

Newburyport is an incredible place to run, with scenic routes that inspire both casual joggers and marathoners. If you’re a runner, you already know the repetitive stress injuries that can come from logging long miles. That’s why chiropractic care for runners is so valuable—it supports proper alignment so you can train harder and recover faster.

During our initial examination, we perform a comprehensive Balance Assessment. Many runners are surprised to learn they’re unknowingly leaning 20 or 30 pounds to one side. Now imagine running 20 miles a week with that imbalance. Over time, it places tremendous stress on your lower back, pelvis, hips, knees, and ankles.

Having the correct underlying structure allows your body to distribute weight, absorb impact, and handle the force of gravity evenly through every joint. When a structural shift occurs, these forces concentrate on certain areas, increasing the risk of pain and injury. For dedicated runners, this imbalance can silently undermine performance and cause chronic issues—making professional chiropractic care for runners an essential part of a long, healthy running career.
