Sports Chiro for Crossfit Athletes

I've come in for several different things from my achilles, to a thumb, to my back. So all different, very different body parts. All of those were treated in the office, but also I was given exercises that I could do to continue to work on those areas. If these injuries ever come up again, like if my back kind of flares up and gives me problems, I know exactly what exercises to go back to, to start working on it before I even come back to the office. So I have those tools now because of that. Which is really empowering for me.

Fixing Athlete Problems

We took the opportunity to bring Nick aboard in order to allow us to give more access to him for our athletes so when they did get injured he was around. We have a plethora of injuries with people that have come to the gym. Everything from calf injuries to shoulder injuries, and Nick has helped them rehab those injuries to the point where they've come back to the gym and been at a hundred percent or even 110%. When we come into the office for an office visit, we would see him and he would address specific injuries with whatever he thought was fit for us as athletes. It could be an adjustment, some exercises in the office and at home, and much more. 

 Really whatever we needed to address the area of concern and help us rebuild the area and get back to doing what we enjoy. 

The first thing I told Dr. Nic…

when I met him is that I would never ski again. Little did I know I would ski again, but also, I would enjoy it again. Working with the folks at Summit Chiropractic and Rehab has helped me gain my strength and confidence back. I have Dr. Nic’s attention and support for the entirety of my appointment and I also have the ability to email him with questions and concerns when I’m not at the office. Summit Chiropractic and Rehab also has a huge selection of online resources in case you forget what exercises you did in office. I was convinced I wouldn’t trust another again PT but I do, and cannot say enough good things about this practice.


 

 

Matt Came to us with excruciating knee pain with skiing,

even moderates and easy runs. Through a combination of hands on therapy, as well as exercises done both in the office and at home, we were able to get him back in action on the slopes and skiing at a high level again. We checking in on him to see how he was doing one year later.

What people are saying.

  • “Best place to come for muscle and joint needs! Been coming off and on for two years, and all the doctors and staff are friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Saved me from shoulder surgery and a lot of pain.”

    — Aaron

  • “Try this office 1st! Wish I would have! I have a 10 year old lower back injury from firefighting. About 7 years ago I started bouncing around other Chiropratic and PT offices in Summit. Only short term fixes. A couple of times a year I would still get laid up in incredible pain, and have consistent pain throughout the years. Dr Ivo is a special mind and soul! He has me pain free and doing activities I wrote off years ago!.”

    — Derek

  • “I love working with Dr. Nic! As someone who works out and is a gymnastics instructor, it is great to have someone so open minded with different techniques and exercises to try to help you recover quickly, but also give me the help to make sure it doesnt happen again. SCR3 was also able to get me quickly after I had an injury coaching gymnastics that left me in severe pain. Dr. Nic was able to work with me that day to minimize the pain, for which I was very thankful for. I highly recommend SCR3!

    — Danelle

  • After months of PT, seeing several different "specialists" and having all kinds of tests, it was Dr Nic who figured out how to fix my arm that had been numb for almost a year. And he also figured out how to relieve pain my daughter was experiencing in her shoulders from competitive Nordic training and racing. He took time to coordinate with her coaches and strength coach to help her reach her goals. Thank you Dr Nic!

    Melissa

  • I’ve been a patient at SCR for nearly 7 years. Dr. John has gotten me through 2 pregnancies and several injuries, and Dr. Nick is helping me gain strength back after a long absence from regular workouts. These guys are amazing and everyone in the practice feels like family. I’m so thankful for all their guidance and help, and would recommend them to anyone.

  • These guys are fantastic! Dr. Hedges worked with my shoulder issues and found out it originated from neck problems from previous crashes on skis. After working with me, not only are my shoulder issues gone, but I’m experiencing much fewer upper body issues in general. My daily pain is so much lower and life quality so much higher after working with them for 6 months. Amazing team!!

    -Olof

  • Super helpful, knowledgeable staff. Treatment was above and beyond. Highly recommend this practice for any chiropractic or rehab needed - they do it all! Dr. John Asthalter is an exceptional healer.

    -Jan

  • This is a great place when you need help with hip impingement/labrum damage!! So glad Dr. Nic offered online consultations! He gave me advise on ADL modifications, exercise instructions and a practical "action plan" to return to running. It took longer than expected, but I always felt like I was on the right track following Nic's plan & in the end I am able to run 100% pain free again without surgery. Actually I would say I run more efficient than before, using/activating the right muscles, helping to prevent other injuries. Thanks a lot!

  • Best rehabilitation clinic I have personally been to. I served in the Army 12.5 years and been to all kinds of different type of rehabilitation clinics and this one is the best. They treat you so well. Nic was amazing, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. I am absolutely blown away with the service and their approach to healing. Thank you!!!
