Do you know how Chiropractic can help running injuries? Most runners will experience some form of injury at some point in their running careers.
This is unfortunately true for all runners, from the elite athletes training for a marathon to those doing a simple run around the block. The answer is never to try train through the pain, hoping it will simply heal on its own. Fortunately, there are effective treatments available to you.
