Ascend Family Chiropractic, located in Graham, Washington, is highlighting its sports chiropractic care services for athletes in Pierce County. The clinic, founded by Dr. Chaz Curtis, offers a specialized approach to supporting athletes of all levels in recovery, mobility, and consistent performance.
Sports Chiropractic Care
The clinic’s sports chiropractic care is designed to address the physical stresses of training, practices, games, and competitions. Care examines how different parts of the body work together rather than isolating individual injuries. Gentle chiropractic adjustments realign the spine to reduce nerve pressure, improve joint function, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
Corrective exercises form another key element when appropriate. These exercises address imbalances, improve flexibility, and support recovery between sessions. Specialized therapies complement the adjustments and exercises, while posture and movement awareness education helps athletes understand how daily habits influence performance and recovery.
Personalized Approach
Athletes of all levels receive support, from student athletes to weekend warriors and more experienced competitors. Care adapts to the individual’s comfort level and specific sport demands. Many athletes seek this approach for restrictions in movement, joint stiffness, accumulated muscle tension, and the physical stress that builds during intense training periods.
Dr. Chaz Curtis, DC, Founder of Ascend Family Chiropractic, stated, “Athletes place unique demands on their bodies through repeated training and competition. Sports chiropractic care focuses on understanding movement patterns, supporting recovery between sessions, and helping the body adapt more efficiently so athletes can stay active with less unnecessary strain.”
The clinic’s team supports the delivery of sports care alongside other family services. Marilyn Curtis serves as Office Manager and HR. Caitlyn, Evelyn, and Tina contribute as chiropractic assistants. Together they maintain a calm, respectful environment where athletes and their families receive clear communication at every step.
