Most of the time when you go to the doctor (PCP or urgent care) with an ankle sprain, you’re told to RICE (rest, ice, compression with ace bandage and elevation), take ibuprofen, and follow up in 4-6 weeks. At Spark Performance and Wellness, our Sprained Ankle Protocol allows athletes to get back up and running in 1 week. If you have issues with an acute or recurrent ankle sprain, why wait? Come check us out TODAY! #sportsmedicine #sportsinjury #sportsinjuries #anklesprain #injuryrecovery #injuryrehab #ssasoccer #soccerinjury #atlantaunited #footballinjury #basketballinjury

Today we saw a baseball player with pain in his throwing arm. Treatment consisted of "The SPARK Arm Care Solution", with cupping and RockTaping, for accelerated recovery. Entering pain and discomfort 7/10, exiting pain and discomfort 2/10 with mild soreness. We love to see our athletes walkout the door with immediate improvement and function. #sportsmedicine #sportsinjury #sportsprevention #baseball #cobbcounty #armcare #georgiabaseball #injuryprevention #drnortonknowsbest #northcobbchristianschool #nccseagles #nccseagles

How much water do you drink per day? We often don’t know when our body is properly hydrated. But we need water before and after training for proper function, recovery and restoration. The likelihood of getting fatigued, being unable to complete your workout or feeling drained afterwards is much higher when you’re dehydrated. Dehydration also makes you more prone to injuries. A good rule of thumb to get through your workout is to hydrate 1-3 days before your intended workout and avoid binge drinking water right before. #sportsdoctor #sportsmedicine #sportsinjury #sportschiropractor #fitnessjourney #injuryprevention #diseaseprevention #injuryrecovery #exerciserecovery #gotmovement #fitnesstips #fitnesslifestyle #obesityawareness

13 year old baseball player came in with arm pain for 2 weeks and decreased range of motion. His goal is to get back to pitching. He had been using BioFreeze, band work and ice without improvement.

Imagine playing a sport and not knowing how close you are to being injured or re-injuring something else. In today's day and age, many athletes have taken on a work load thats probably three times that of athletes from the past. At an alarming rate they are also getting injured just as rapidly. ⁣ ⁣ At SPARK Performance, we've introduced the 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐱 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 (𝐏𝐈𝐍). ⁣ ⁣ 𝗪𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈𝐒 𝐏𝐈𝐍? ⁣ It’s a number that goes from 0-100, that is specifically determined by how well your body is moving at a basic level. Like a test grade, the higher your number, the better (i.e the less likelihood of an injury); and well the lower the number, the more likely an injury will occur.⁣ ⁣ 𝐇𝐎𝗪 𝐈𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐏𝐈𝐍 𝐃𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐃?⁣ By a very specific set of exams that capture 63 different movement patterns. After the exam is done the number is calculated. ⁣ ⁣ 𝗪𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝗪𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐅𝐎𝐑? ⁣ M3 - Motion, Mobility and Movement. ⁣ ⁣ Find out 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 PIN and zone! ⁣ RED ZONE-0-49⁣ YELLOW ZONE-50-74⁣ GREEN ZONE 75-100

Are you at risk of re-injury?⁣ ⁣ Studies show that 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐨 𝟒𝟎% of athletes at all levels are at risk of re-injury or chronic injuries if they are not properly rehabilitated*⁣ ⁣ Most athletic/sports-related injuries are multifaceted and require a global approach.⁣ ⁣ Would you rather go to a mechanic that changes your oil but doesn’t mention or fix your malfunctioning engine? Of course not! Keeping that thought process in mind, treatment of injuries deserve an evaluation and treatment plan of not only the affected area, but also the joints above, below and other surrounding structures. Rehabilitating the right knee without considering the left knee, ankles, hips, or back can lead to reoccurrence of the same injury or second injury to the knee 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐦𝐚𝐲 𝐛𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭. ⁣ ⁣ How do you know if your injury has not been properly rehabilitated?⁣ ⁣ -You have been using a stability device (e.g. braces) for months-years after initial injury⁣ ⁣ -You have been using home devices (e.g. foam rollers, massage devices, and tens units) for pain and not recovery⁣ ⁣ -Inefficient home stretches⁣ ⁣ -You use ice/heat for months to years after initial injury to help with recurrent pain, swelling or reduced range of motion⁣ ⁣ 𝐀𝐭 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐛, 𝐰𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐚 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

What's the point of playing a sport or being and athlete if you're going to spend half the time being injured. Most non-contact injuries are preventable in nature and can be avoided.

Don't fiddle around on the sidelines trying to figure out what's wrong with your body, allow us to answers those questions and help you get back to dominating your competition. . . . . #doctor #drnortonknowsbest #sportsrehabilitation #injured #play #athlete #highschoolsports #NCAA #nba #nfl #performance #staywoke #tennis #soccer #performanceenhancement #quads #elbow #joints #muscles

Let's talk about ankle injuries. . Typically, Grade 1-2 ankle sprains/injuries take about 4-6 weeks to completely heal. . However, through SPARK Performance, patients can typically see results within 1 week. Proper diagnostics and treatment protocol typically allow patients to see complete recovery in 2-3 weeks. . Do you suffer from ankle sprains, or know someone who does ask us how we can help!! . . #anklesprain #drnortonknowsbest #recovery #cobbcounty #ankle #injury #rocktape #lymphaticdrainage #hurt #injured #recovery #performance #highanklesprain #dislocatedankle #nfl #soccer #atlantaunited #pjwashington #nba #mlb #harrisonhighschool

What to know how #tombrady continues to still dominate the game? He works on his physical game off the field by allowing his muscles to have pliability and mobility. Tight muscles often leads to injuries and poor performance output. . ⭐It’s not a coincidence that the most elite athletes invest in their bodies and are hardly injured. How are you investing in your body off the field? . ⭐Life Fact: Injures don't have to be the reason you're not performing to your optimal level, make sure you're getting the small issues looked at, they only lead to bigger issues down the road. . #football #tombrady #injuryprevention #nfl #performance #elite #muscles #sports #injury #performance #mobility #coach #physical #superbowl #superbowllii

What an awesome way to kick off this Saturday @willisperformancetraining. The coaches and athletes understand that importance of keeping your body healthy and in shape for optimum performance. 💡It is imperative to surround yourself with a team of doctors and trainers that can help you reach peak performance and minimize the risk of injury. 💡If you dont already surround yourself with a staff of individuals that will help you reach the next level, this is a great time to SPARK your performance journey. #prehab #injuryprevention #performance #speed #ball #drnortonknowsbest #hamstrings #injury #rehab #performance #speed #agilitytraining #muscles #sports #control #baseball #football #lacrosse #spark #edge #athlete #athletictraining #treatment #doctor #nba #ncaa #willisperformancetraining #movement #fms9

Golfer's Elbow: typically consists of overuse injuries of the extensor muscles that connect near the elbow joint. Tennis Elbow: Consits of overuse injuries of the flexor muscles that connect near the elbow joint. With proper care and treatment of the muscles that surround the elbow these injuries can be prevented or significantly decreaed. A part of the SPARK Edge Program we check for these issues. #tenniselbow #golferselbow #tennis #golf #injuryprevention #coaches #sports #baseball #spark #elbow #highschool #athletes #speed #drnortonknowsbest #sportmedicine #personaltrainer #doctor #cobbcounty #atlanta #training #espn #pga #mlb

i n j u r y❗️p r e v e n t i o n Fact: More than 1/2 of all sports-related injuries can be prevented. One of the most common issues I see are due to muscle imbalances.

The biggest issue I see are athletes getting bigger, faster, and stronger; meanwhile, many athletes look over the importance of preventative treatment and maintenance. #ptm #preventativehealth #athletes #sportsmedicine #sportsrehabilitation #drnortonknowsbest #baseball #lacrosse #conditioning #footballseason #basketballtraining #injuryprevention #stretching #rocktape #highschool #highschoolathlete #youthathletics
