Helping Athletes Stay in the Game – and Get Back to It

man and woman working out outdoorsWhether you’re a teen chasing a PR, an adult who hits the gym between work meetings, or just someone who lives for weekend pickup games, Dr. Chad Hedges gets it. As a chiropractor with a postdoctoral Master’s in Sports Medicine—and board-certified as a chiropractic sports physician—he knows exactly what your body goes through. More importantly, he knows how to help it bounce back.

At Peak Performance Sport & Spine, we treat athletes at every level. Some come in after a sprain or strain; others just want to stay ahead of injuries. Either way, we’ve got you. Our goal is twofold: fix what’s hurting and build resilience for whatever’s next.

What We Treat Most

Sprains, strains, tendonitis, rotator cuff problems, overuse injuries—you name it, we’ve seen it. For many athletes, recovery takes about 4 to 8 weeks, though some bounce back even faster. Appointments typically last 20 to 60 minutes, depending on what you need that day. Every treatment plan is tailored and might include:

  • IASTM (instrument-assisted soft tissue work)

Credentials You Can Trust

Dr. Hedges isn’t just certified—he’s overqualified (in the best way). He’s trained in concussion care, kinesiology taping, cupping, and more. Plus, he’s SafeSport certified and has worked with pros, so you’re in solid hands.

It’s Not Just About Injuries

We’re big believers in prevention and performance. Tools like recovery boots help flush out tired muscles. Light therapy? It works at the cellular level to promote faster healing. We also do full-body movement assessments to find small inefficiencies that could turn into big problems later.

Let’s Get You Moving Again

If you’re dealing with nagging pain—or just want to stay in top form—give Peak Performance Sport & Spine a call. We’ll get you back to feeling (and performing) like yourself again.
