Sports Injury Treatment in Frisco
Whether you’re a student-athlete at Wakeland High or training at The Star, sports can take a toll on the body. Even golfers at The Trails of Frisco Golf Club know that injuries and fatigue can get in the way of peak performance.
Dr. Mark Taylor, Frisco chiropractor, has more than 20 years of experience helping athletes recover, improve performance, and stay active. As a board-certified sports chiropractor, he has cared for players on 3 separate Super Bowl winning teams, one of the world’s most elite ultramarathoners, Olympic gold medal winners, UFC fighters, several of the top Puma Hyrox competitors, and high level military operators/veterans….all with a 90% success rate. Just as important is the local athlete pushing their own physical limits on a day to day basis. We believe you deserve the same premiere level of care and as a result, Taylor Family Chiropractic has become a trusted partner in our city’s dynamic athletic community.
Common Injuries We See
Sports injuries come in many forms, and we see them all the time in our practice. Some of the most common include:
- Sprains, strains, and ligament injuries such as ACL or MCL tears
- Shoulder pain and rotator cuff problems
- Tennis and golfer’s elbow
- Runner’s knee, shin splints, and other overuse issues
- Sports-related concussions
These injuries don’t just keep you off the field or court; they can affect your daily life if left unaddressed.
Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore
If you’re noticing persistent pain, swelling, joint instability, or reduced range of motion, it’s best to seek care right away. Many athletes also come in when their sport just “doesn’t feel right” anymore—maybe their swing feels restricted, or their stride feels uneven. These early signs can point to problems that are easier to correct when caught early.
Our Approach to Care
Every athlete is unique, which is why Dr. Mark Taylor begins with a comprehensive evaluation and a plan tailored to your sport and goals. Chiropractic adjustments help restore mobility and balance, while soft tissue therapy and bracing support healing. We also guide athletes through sport-specific rehab and return-to-play strategies so they can get back in the game with confidence.
For more stubborn or chronic injuries, we may recommend The Matrix by NeuroMed, an advanced, non-invasive therapy that many athletes use to manage knee, shoulder, and elbow pain. It’s designed to ease inflammation, speed recovery, and keep you moving toward peak performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon should I seek treatment after a sports injury?
The sooner the better. Even small injuries can become bigger problems if you push through the pain. We recommend getting checked within 24-48 hours to protect your long-term performance.
Can chiropractic care actually help prevent sports injuries?
Imagine having a brand new Ferrari. You would make sure that it was in alignment before you took out on the track right? YES!! Your body is just the same. Regular chiropractic care keeps your joints aligned, improves mobility, and balances your muscles. Many athletes find this reduces stress on their bodies and helps prevent overuse injuries.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring any X-rays, MRIs, or medical records you already have, plus a list of medications. We also recommend wearing comfortable clothes that let you move easily.
Do you work with chronic or recurring sports injuries?
Absolutely. Many athletes come to us with old injuries that never fully healed. We combine chiropractic care, targeted rehab, and advanced therapies like The Matrix by NeuroMed to help manage pain and improve performance.
Will you guide me back to playing safely?
Definitely. We’ll not only help you recover but also give you return-to-play coaching, strengthening exercises, and prevention strategies designed for your sport.
