Is movement care only for athletes?

No. Movement care is for anyone whose injury or physical limitations are affecting how they move or function.

How soon after an injury should I come in?

The appropriate timing depends on the injury. An examination can help determine what is going on, and whether chiropractic or movement care is appropriate.

What if my pain is gone, but I still don’t feel like I’m moving normally?

That’s an important reason to look into movement patterns. Pain and function don’t always recover at the same rate.

Will I receive exercises?

Your care will depend on what your body needs. Recommendations may include movement or other strategies to support your recovery, along with hands-on care when appropriate.

What if I’ve had the same injury before?

Recurring injuries can sometimes be related to how the body is moving or compensating. An examination can help identify factors that may be contributing.

Help your body move better, function better, and heal itself.

Chiropractic care is about more than adjusting your back. At Red Canyon Chiropractic Care, we look at how the joints of your body–especially the spine–are moving, and how that movement affects communication between your body and brain.

By restoring proper movement and function, chiropractic care can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and give your nervous system better information with which to work.

How it works

What is injury rehab?

Injury rehab and movement care are focused on restoring function after an injury or period of physical limitation.

That may mean addressing a painful joint, restricted movement, soft-tissue dysfunction or compensations that have developed because you’ve been protecting an injured area.

It’s to help you move properly again.

Who is it for?

Movement can be helpful for people recovering from:

Sports injuries
Soft-tissue injuries
Strains and overuse
Joint or muscle pain
Restricted mobility
Recurring injuries
Work-related physical stress
Injuries that have changed the way you move

You don’t have to be a professional athlete to benefit from injury rehab.

Your “sport” might be running, golf, hiking, working with your hands, or simply keeping up with your family.

How It Works

How does it work?

Your body doesn’t move as a collection of independent parts.

When one area hurts, you naturally change how you move in order to protect it. Over time, those compensations can become their own movement patterns.

That’s why Dr. Donnelly begins with an examination rather than immediately treating the area that is experiencing pain. He will look at how you are moving, where function is limited and what may be contributing to the problem(s) you are experiencing.

Your care may incorporate chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue techniques, neurological assessment and other approaches, depending on what is discovered.

What can you expect?

Your care plan will depend on your injury as well as your particular goals.

It may be incorporated into care for:

Restore joint movement

Improve mobility

Address soft-tissue restrictions

Improve movement patterns

Reduce pain

Support recovery

Help you return to normal activity

If you are an athlete, that may mean getting back to your sport and previous level of training

Why Red Canyon?

Dr. Donnelly brings a whole-body perspective to injury care.

Rather than assuming the area(s) in which you are experiencing pain is the singular problem, he considers how the surrounding joints, muscles and nervous system are contributing to the way you move.

His approach is designed around a practical goal:

helping you heal and getting you better.

This means creating an appropriate care plan, giving your body enough support to make a meaningful change, and adjusting the plan as you improve.

What does care cost?

Red Canyon Chiropractic is a cash–based practice, so you always know what you care will cost upfront.

Initial assessment Approximately$160
Follow-up visits $65-$95
