Chiropractic Sports Performance
Running & Triathlon Performance
We have been involved in both the running and triathlon communities for decades. Dr. Abelson competed in Ironman triathlons, and marathons himself for over 30 years. In addition, we have provided our services to competitive athletes at both the amateur and right up to the Olympic level. We can not only help you prevent and resolve your injuries, but we can help you to substantially improve your performance.
Below are some of the articles Dr. Abelson has written. If you would like to read some of the articles on specific injuries go to our section on conditions.
Designed to Run - The Human Gait Cycle
- Dr. Brian Abelson DC.
Human beings are amazing running machines! As human beings we are designed to run, and even take flight for short periods of time! The synergistic actions of a runner’s body provide stability, balance, shock absorption, and propulsion. Much of our running ability has to do with our body’s capacity to store and release elastic energy.
Strong Glutes = Your Functional Advantage!
- Dr. Brian Abelson DC.
In today’s increasingly sedentary world, bio-mechanical specialists talk about ‘gluteal amnesia’! Gluteal amnesia is what occurs when we spend too much time sitting down.
Golf Performance
We have been involved in the golfing community for decades. Dr. Abelson has provided services to both amateur and PGA golfers. The practitioners at Kinetic Health have a long history of not only preventing and treating injuries but also improving performance.
Below are some of the articles Dr. Abelson has written about the game of golf.
The Golfing Body 1 - Powering Your Swing
- Dr. Brian Abelson DC.
An efficient golf swing involves more than just technique. If golfers want to achieve optimal results in the shortest possible time they must first address the quality of their musculoskeletal structures.
The Golfing Body 2 - Swing Phase Muscle Connection
- Dr. Brian Abelson DC.
In this edition of the "Golfer's Body" we will cover "The Swing Phase Muscle Connection". We will review the specific anatomical structures that are involved in each phase of a golf swing. With this knowledge, we can focus our treatments on removing the functional limitations that often have a substantial impact on both swing performance and injury prevention.
The Golfing Body 3 - Releasing Your Swing
- Dr. Brian Abelson DC.
In Part 3 of "The Golfer's Body" we will go over the specific strategies we use to address inefficiencies in your golf swing. We will give you examples of manual therapy recommendations to remove restrictions and provide you with specific exercises (for mobility and strengthening) to improve your game.
