Sports Chiropractic in Port Macquarie
Whether you’re an occasional runner or a competitive athlete, you want to stay active and be at your competitive best. Dr Neil Hecimovic (Chiropractor) provides experienced chiropractic care to support athletes of all levels. His goal? To help your body move freely, recover faster, and perform at its best.
Why Athletes Choose Chiropractic
Sport repeatedly strains specific muscles, joints, and ligaments. Over time, this can lead to wear and tear, tightness, and misalignments, particularly in the spine and pelvis. Chiropractic care targets these areas to restore joint movement, ease muscular tension, and help the body better adapt to physical stress.
Whether it’s lower back stiffness after weight training, shoulder strain from swimming, or a twisted knee from footy, Dr Neil focuses on the underlying issues so you can return to doing what you love.
Nervous System Function & Peak Performance
Your brain communicates with every muscle, joint, and organ through your nervous system, which runs through your spine. When spinal function is compromised, it can impact balance, coordination, and reaction time. Chiropractic adjustments are designed to help keep the nervous system functioning efficiently by improving spinal motion and alignment.
This approach supports whole-body awareness, which is key to staying agile, stable, and strong, on and off the field.
How Chiropractic Differs From Physio or Osteo
Physiotherapists often focus on soft tissue rehab and muscle strengthening. Osteopaths tend to treat the whole body with broader techniques. Chiropractors, like Dr. Neil, focus on spinal health and nervous system function, making them a fantastic fit for athletes seeking long-term structural support and faster recovery between sessions.
Many athletes find combining different modalities works best. But when it comes to spinal alignment, chiropractic can offer a focused and valuable approach.
Train Smarter. Recover Better. Move Freely.
