Key Sports Injury Treatments We Offer

Target Frequency Therapy

One of the most innovative treatments we offer at SportsDocs Family Chiro is Target Frequency Therapy (TFT). This cutting-edge therapy is unique to Dr. Porman and SportsDocs because he is the founder of it’s utilization.  It entails using specific electrical, sound and light frequencies to modulate the body’s natural processes. Here is how TFT works:

  • Determine the Frequency of Tissue Involved:  Every tissue in the human body resonates/ vibrates at specific frequencies. For example, the cartilage, ligaments and tendons all have their own specific frequencies.
  • Determine the Most Appropriate Frequency for Treatment:  Every frequency provides a specific effect upon the body.  For example, is the tissue torn, broken, inflamed, etc.
  • Precise Stimulation: TFT targets injured tissues with carefully calibrated frequencies, reducing inflammation and promoting cellular repair.
  • Pain Relief: By addressing the source of pain at a cellular level, TFT most often can provide effective relief without the need for medication.
  • Faster Recovery: This therapy accelerates the healing process naturally, helping you get back to your sport sooner.

Target Frequency Therapy is particularly effective for chronic pain and most injuries that have been slow to heal with traditional treatments. It is a game-changer for athletes looking for advanced, non-invasive care.  Not to mention how well TFT can improve an athlete’s performance because it addresses neurological dysfunction.

Soft Tissue Therapy

Soft tissue injuries, such as muscle/tendon strains and ligament sprains, are common in athletes. Our soft tissue therapy techniques, including Microcurrent, SoundWave, High Powered Laser, Dry Needling and Frequency Discs can offer the athlete/client relief by: decreasing swelling and edema, as well as decreasing pain in the joints by decreasing inflammation, and getting the muscles to begin to fire correctly again:

  • Improve blood flow to and from the injured area
  • Decrease pain signals sent to the brain from injured tissue
  • Break up scar tissue
  • Accelerate the natural healing process

These therapies are gentle yet highly effective in promoting recovery and reducing pain.

Rehabilitation Exercises

Rehabilitation is a critical component of sports injury recovery. After we get your nervous system back to firing correctly, we will guide you through targeted exercises to strengthen weakened muscles, improve flexibility, and restore overall muscle balance/symmetry. These exercises not only aid in recovery but also help prevent future injuries by addressing imbalances or overfiring of the nervous system that may have contributed to the initial problem.

Chiropractic Adjustments

Chiropractic care is what we do, IF it is necessary and the athlete wants to be treated utilizing this technology. Dysfunction in the spine and extremity joints can lead to pain, reduced mobility, and even increase your risk of future injuries. Our precise chiropractic adjustments help:

  • Improve range of motion
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Reduce pressure on nerves

Chiropractic adjustments are safe, effective, and suitable for a wide range of sports injuries, from back pain to joint discomfort and even disc injuries. Dr. Porman’s thorough evaluation will determine whether it is even recommended.

Performance Optimization

Recovery does not stop when the pain subsides. Dr. Porman provides guidance on lifestyle changes and performance optimization to help you stay injury-free. This includes:

  • Nutrition Advice: Recommendations for foods and supplements that reduce inflammation and support healing.
  • Training Adjustments: Advice on modifying your workouts to prevent injuries.
  • Posture and Ergonomics: Tips for maintaining proper joint function during daily activities.

Our goal is to help you build a strong foundation for long-term health and peak athletic performance.
