Shin splints, also known as Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome, is a common athletic injury that causes pain in the lower leg. This is typically caused by pulling of the tibialis anterior muscle on the tibia causing irritation at this bony insertion. Other muscles in the area such as the tibialis posterior can also be involved. Treatment can consist of soft tissue therapies such as instrument assisted soft tissue therapy, Active Release Technique and laser therapy offered by our chiropractors. Additionally, rehabilitation is often helpful for return-to-sport. Orthotics can be helpful if foot biomechanics contribute to the condition. Our chiropractors can provide an assessment and treatment options for foot or leg pain you might be experiencing.

Your body often signals when it needs a reset. Vertigo, disturbed sleep, and forgetfulness are not random; they can reflect an overwhelmed or reorganizing nervous system.
