Understanding Sprains and Strains
Sprains and strains are common musculoskeletal injuries that can occur due to sudden twists, falls, overuse, or repetitive motions.
Sprains involve the stretching or tearing of ligaments, while strains involve the stretching or tearing of muscles or tendons.
According to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), sprains and strains account for millions of visits to healthcare providers each year.
Most Common Causes of Sprains and Strains:
Sports Injuries: Participation in sports activities that involve sudden stops, changes in direction, or high-impact movements can increase the risk of sprains and strains.
Accidents or Falls: Traumatic events such as falls, collisions, or accidents can result in sprains and strains, particularly if the body is subjected to sudden forces or awkward movements.
Overexertion or Overuse: Repeated stress or overuse of muscles, tendons, or ligaments without adequate rest or recovery can lead to sprains and strains, especially in individuals who engage in repetitive tasks or manual labor.

I highly recommend Balance for all your health and longevity goals. I had damaged muscle from a trauma injury that had not healed in three years and through Shockwave and Balance’s comprehensive treatment approach, healed the damaged region. They are extremely customized in their care and it is always a wonderful overall experience.
I was recommended to Balance medical from a local friend here in Colorado as we are visiting from Costa Rica. It was suggested that it may help to have a session in the hyperbaric chamber to help adjust to the altitude.
The entire experience was educational and professional with both Dr Jesi and her husband Dr Jason explaining the process step by step and not only the benefits of what to expect but how your body functions and why this process would help me to climatize to the altitude.
A great experience and can say it really worked for me I was experiencing a slight headache and just kind of worn out. After the one-hour session I was revitalized and had renewed energy and my headache was gone. I have been hiking and climbing since here in the mountains and feel great.
Thank you very much Dr. Jesi and Dr. Jason for your help and professionalism what a great team!
I recently had Dr Jess treat my plantar fasciitis with shock wave therapy. The results are amazing! I had 4-5 treatments about 2 weeks apart. The results are not immediate, but within a few days I had so much relief and after a few treatments the difference is incredible! SO worth it!
10 years ago I broke my leg in two places and had 14 pins, two plates and bone graphed into my tib/fib/ankle, and was told I would deal with arthritis for the rest of my life. Being extremely active in sports, weight lifting, and with my profession I found that movement helped but was almost counter intuitive. I lost nearly 75% range of motion in the joint and became limited in certain abilities in addition to consistent discomfort. I'm now 4 months out from receiving PRP and cellular therapy from Jason, and i have seen a significant improvement in my ability to not only move the joint with gained ROM, but pain and discomfort is nearly non existent after strenuous activities. I used to wake up and find it hard to take the first few steps, which is no longer an issue. I highly recommend considering this treatment to anyone looking to either gain an advantage on maintaining a active lifestyle or simply live day to day with less pain.

Integrated Therapies for Sprains and Strains:
Shockwave Therapy:
Clinical studies have shown that shockwave therapy can effectively reduce pain and promote healing in patients with sprains and strains. Research in The American Journal of Sports Medicine highlights its effectiveness in aiding recovery for soft tissue injuries, including sprains and strains.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar utilize advanced shockwave therapy techniques to target injured soft tissues, stimulate tissue regeneration, and accelerate recovery from sprains and strains.
Chiropractic Care:
Gentle spinal and joint manipulations reduce strain, alleviate pain, and restore function. Studies in The Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics emphasize its role in improving recovery.
Our skilled chiropractors employ gentle, targeted adjustments to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function in individuals recovering from sprains and strains.
Soft TIssue Mobilization:
Soft tissue mobilization techniques, including massage therapy and myofascial release, are effective methods for alleviating pain and supporting the healing of injured muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Research published in The Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy has shown that soft tissue mobilization significantly reduces pain and improves function in patients
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar customize soft tissue mobilization treatments to address muscle imbalances, decrease scar tissue formation, and enhance recovery for individuals with sprains and strains.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy treats sprains and strains by injecting a concentrated sample of the patient’s own blood platelets into the injured area. This helps activate the body’s natural healing process, promoting tissue regeneration, reducing pain, and alleviating inflammation. PRP therapy can accelerate recovery time and is especially effective for chronic or persistent injuries that haven't responded to other treatments.
Our PRP therapy treatments utilize concentrated platelets from your own blood to promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and enhance recovery from sprains and strains.
Stem Cell Injections:
Stem cell therapy can effectively treat sprains and strains by injecting the patient’s own stem cells into the injured area. This process helps stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and speed up the body’s natural healing response. As a result, recovery may be faster and function may improve more quickly compared to traditional treatments. This approach is especially beneficial for sports-related injuries, such as ankle sprains and muscle strains.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer advanced stem cell therapy options to support tissue healing and accelerate recovery in individuals with sprains and strains.
