The Mechanical Motion Therapy treatment is ideal for treating various injuries starting from work injuries, slide and fall injuries, sport injuries, accident injuries and whiplash. But in this article we are not going to get into details of all these types of injuries. We are going to focus on sport injuries which can affect any person that engages in sport activities. They may result from poor training, flawed techniques, faulty equipments or even an accident. The main types of sport injuries include.
1.
Strains and sprains
This kind of sport injury results from virtually every
physical activity and by far is the most common one. It occurs when the
ligament tissues attaching bones to bones either tear apart or overstretch. A
sprain mostly occurs on the ankles, wrist or knees. It can also be termed as a
pulled muscle which occurs when ligament fibers are torn apart due to pressure.
A sprain can be either severe or mild depending on the extent of injury. In
order to restore the displaced fibers back to position, the Pro Adjuster
machine is used to make the adjustments.
2.
Knee injuries
About 90% of the patients with sport injuries visit
orthopedic specialists to have their knee injuries treated. They may include
runner's knee which refers to tenderness at the knee cap, iliotibial band or
tendinitis where the knee tendons inflame. Dr Maurice Pisciottano has
been addressing such knee injuries and has been able to help many patients who
have not succeeded in the physical therapy techniques.
3.
Shin splints
A shin splint technically refers to pain along the shin
bone, tibia. It mainly occurs on the front external part of the leg around the
tibia. However, it may also occur on the leg (ankle) or even at the point where
the bone meets calf muscles at the bone's inner edge.
Aside from these, there are other sport injuries that Dr
Pisciottano has been able to treat throughout his practice. These include
the fractures and knee dislocations.
