SPORTS CHIROPRACTIC IN WEST OMAHA

Sports Chiropractor in Omaha

Care that helps you keep moving.

Sports injuries and repetitive training can affect how you move on the course, field, mat, or in the gym. At Life Source Chiropractic, Dr. Jason Wiese listens to your goals, evaluates your movement, and builds a care plan around your sport and your everyday life.

Dr. Wiese has worked with USA Wrestling and USA Weightlifting and served as one of the chiropractors at the 2012 and 2013 CrossFit Regionals in Chicago. He brings that experience to Omaha athletes of all ages and activity levels—from youth athletes and golfers to pickleball players, lifters, and people who simply want to stay fit.

Sports care tailored to your goals

WHY ATHLETES REACH OUT

Move better in the sport you love.

Golf swings, heavy lifts, runs, and practices place different demands on your body. We start with the movement or pain that is limiting you, then discuss practical options that fit your activity and goals.

01

Pain that interrupts play

Back, neck, hip, or shoulder discomfort can make training and competition harder. We look at when symptoms started, which movements bring them on, and what you want to return to.

02

Recovery after a setback

After an injury or a demanding training block, you may need a plan for comfortable movement and a gradual return to activity. Your examination helps guide the next step.

03

Mobility and performance goals

Restricted movement can affect your swing, lift, or stride. We discuss movement, strength, and activity habits alongside hands-on care when appropriate.

ATHLETIC EXPERIENCE

High-Level Sports Experience, Focused on Your Long Game

Performance today. Staying active for years.

Dr. Wiese has worked with USA Wrestling and USA Weightlifting and was one of the chiropractors serving on the medical team at the 2012 and 2013 CrossFit Regionals in Chicago.

High-level athletes want to perform at their best and keep doing it for years. That goal matters whether you compete, play golf or pickleball, lift weights, or simply want to stay fit. Dr. Wiese considers how you move, what your activity demands, and what may be limiting you, then tailors care to your goals. You do not have to wait until pain takes you out of the game to make your movement a priority.

SPORTS INJURIES & RECOVERY

Understanding sports injuries and recovery

Sports injuries do not all start the same way. Some happen in one moment; others develop as the same movement is repeated without enough recovery. Understanding which pattern fits your symptoms helps guide the next step.

SUDDEN INJURY

Sprains and strains

A sprain affects a ligament, which connects bones at a joint. A strain affects a muscle or tendon. An ankle twist, knee pivot, heavy lift, or awkward landing can cause immediate pain, swelling, or loss of motion. We assess the injured area and how the surrounding joints move before recommending care.

BUILDS OVER TIME

Overuse and recurring pain

Repeated swings, throws, runs, and lifts can irritate a tendon or bursa when training load outpaces recovery. Tendonitis or tendinopathy, bursitis, and recurring back or joint pain may develop gradually. Arthritis and disc degeneration can also influence how comfortably an athlete moves.

Areas we commonly work with

Back and neck: stiffness, muscle strain, and some disc-related pain. Shoulder: discomfort with throwing, lifting, or overhead motion. Hip and knee: pain with running, squatting, and changing direction. Ankle: sprains, stiffness, and difficulty returning to activity.

At our West Omaha office, Dr. Wiese considers where the pain started, what movements aggravate it, and what your sport asks of you.

Care matched to your sport and goals

Your evaluation helps us choose options that fit your sport, symptoms, stage of recovery, and goals. Care may combine the following:

Chiropractic adjustments

Joint-focused care is central to our approach. Adjustments may help restore motion in the spine or extremities when restriction contributes to pain or altered movement.

Corrective exercises

Targeted mobility, balance, and strengthening work helps you rebuild control and tolerate the demands of your sport. Your plan can progress as symptoms and function improve.

SoftWave therapy

For selected soft tissue and joint concerns, including persistent tendon or muscle pain, SoftWave therapy may be part of the plan.

Spinal decompression

For some people with disc-related back or neck pain, including degenerative disc changes or arthritis-related spinal discomfort, we may consider spinal decompression after evaluation.

NormaTec compression

NormaTec compression can support a recovery routine between demanding training sessions. It is an add-on to an injury plan, not a substitute for diagnosis or rehabilitation.
