When most people think of chiropractic care, they picture quick spinal adjustments to relieve back or neck pain. But for athletes and active individuals, a performance-focused chiropractor offers so much more. From improving mobility and strength to accelerating recovery and preventing injuries, performance-focused chiropractic care is a game-changer.
Dr. Maring at The Training Room in Blaine, MN brings elite-level experience, having worked with professional athletes in the NFL, MLS, MLB, and NHL, along with countless athletes across all levels and sports. His approach combines hands-on treatment, cutting-edge recovery techniques, and individualized rehab plans to help you move better, recover faster, and perform at your peak. That's why our standard appointment times are an hour vs. just a few minutes with the doctor. Our goal is to get you better faster and keep you injury-free long term while also improving performance.
How Is a Performance Chiropractor Different?
A traditional chiropractor primarily focuses on spinal adjustments to relieve pain and improve function. While this approach can be beneficial, performance chiropractors take it a step further by addressing the entire musculoskeletal system and how the body moves during sport-specific activities.
Key Differences:
Focus on Movement & Performance – Instead of just treating symptoms, we assess how the body moves, identifying weaknesses and imbalances that could lead to injury.
Sport-Specific Rehab & Recovery – Tailored treatment plans include mobility drills, strength work, and recovery tools designed for you.
Hands-On Manual Therapy – Techniques like dry needling, myofascial release, and joint mobilization address soft tissue restrictions that limit performance.
Proactive Injury Prevention – Instead of waiting for pain to occur, we identify and correct movement dysfunctions before they lead to injuries.
Dr. Maring’s Experience: From the Pros to You
Dr. Maring’s extensive experience working with professional athletes has given him a deep understanding of high-performance demands. Whether treating a professional football player recovering from a hamstring strain or a casual tennis player dealing with shoulder pain, his approach is the same: deliver elite-level care tailored to each individual’s needs.
His work with professional teams and competitive athletes has allowed him to refine treatment strategies that are just as effective for youth athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone looking to move and feel better.
