You didn’t get hurt to sit around waiting for it to heal on its own. Whether you tweaked something on the tennis courts, overdid it at the fitness center, or pushed too hard during a weekend cycling session, you want to recover quickly and get back to doing what you love.
Chiropractic care for sports injuries in Port Liberte, NJ speeds up your body’s natural healing process by improving blood flow and reducing inflammation where it counts. Studies show athletes can see up to 6% improvement in performance after treatment—not because we’re adding anything artificial, but because we’re removing what’s blocking your body from functioning the way it should.
You’ll move better, feel stronger, and reduce your risk of the same injury happening again. That’s what happens when you treat the cause instead of numbing the symptoms. No pills. No surgery. Just your body working the way it was designed to.
Dr. Paul Roses has been practicing chiropractic care since 1981, serving Hudson County with a simple philosophy: your body already knows how to heal itself. His job is to remove the interference so it can do exactly that.
Located just minutes from Port Liberte in Bayonne, we use advanced spinal correction techniques and state-of-the-art technology like Titron Infrared Imaging to assess your injury with precision. You’re not getting cookie-cutter adjustments here—you’re getting a personalized care plan built around your specific injury, your sport, and your goals.
Port Liberte residents know what it means to stay active. With tennis courts, basketball courts, a 4,600-square-foot fitness center, and waterfront trails right in your backyard, this community thrives on movement. We understand that lifestyle, and we’ve built our practice to support it.
First, you’ll sit down for a real conversation about what happened, where it hurts, and what you’ve already tried. We don’t rush this part—we need to understand your injury and your activity level to treat you effectively.
Next comes the assessment. That includes a physical exam, range of motion testing, and if needed, x-rays or infrared imaging to see what’s going on beneath the surface. This isn’t guesswork—it’s a full picture of what’s causing your pain and limiting your movement.
Then you’ll get your first adjustment. Depending on your injury, that might include spinal manipulation, soft tissue therapy, or techniques designed to reduce inflammation and restore joint mobility. You’ll also leave with exercises or stretches to do at home, because healing doesn’t stop when you walk out the door.
Most people feel some relief after the first visit. Real recovery takes a few sessions, but the goal is always the same: get you back to full strength as quickly as possible, and keep you there.
Ready to get started?
You’re getting drug-free pain relief that works with your body, not against it. Chiropractic adjustments trigger your body’s natural endorphin production, which reduces pain without the side effects or dependency that come with medication.
You’re also getting injury prevention. We don’t just treat what’s already hurt—we identify weak spots in your musculoskeletal system that could lead to future problems. That means fewer injuries down the road, especially if you’re someone who plays hard and often.
In Port Liberte, where 20% of residents list biking, hiking, and live sports as top interests, staying injury-free isn’t a luxury—it’s part of your lifestyle. Whether you’re training for something specific or just trying to stay active without constant setbacks, this kind of proactive care makes a difference.
You’ll also see improvements in flexibility, range of motion, and overall performance. Treatments loosen tight joints and break up scar tissue that limits movement. That’s why 100% of NFL and MLB teams have chiropractors on staff, and 72% of PGA golfers get adjustments while on tour. It works.
It depends on the injury, but most people notice improvement within the first few visits. Minor strains or sprains might resolve in a week or two with consistent treatment. More serious issues like muscle tears or joint dysfunction can take several weeks.
The difference with chiropractic care is that you’re not just waiting for time to pass—you’re actively speeding up the healing process. Adjustments improve blood flow to the injured area, reduce inflammation, and restore proper movement patterns so your body can repair itself faster.
Dr. Roses will give you a realistic timeline during your first visit based on what he sees during the assessment. Recovery also depends on how well you follow the care plan, including any at-home exercises or activity modifications he recommends.
In many cases, yes. Chiropractic care is a non-invasive option that addresses the root cause of pain and dysfunction, which can eliminate the need for surgery altogether. Conditions like herniated discs, rotator cuff issues, and chronic joint pain often respond well to spinal adjustments and soft tissue therapy.
That said, some injuries do require surgical intervention, and Dr. Roses will be upfront with you if that’s the case. We’re not here to waste your time or give false hope—we’re here to give you the most effective treatment for your specific situation.
If surgery is necessary, chiropractic care can still play a role in your recovery afterward. Many patients use it to regain strength, mobility, and function once they’ve healed from the procedure.
We treat the full range of sports-related injuries, from acute trauma to overuse conditions. That includes sprains, strains, tendonitis, ligament damage, joint dysfunction, muscle tears, and nerve impingement. Common injuries we see include tennis elbow, runner’s knee, rotator cuff strains, lower back pain, and ankle sprains.
We also work with athletes dealing with chronic issues that haven’t fully healed—things like lingering shoulder pain, recurring hamstring pulls, or stiffness that won’t go away. These are often the result of incomplete healing or compensatory movement patterns that need to be corrected.
If you’re not sure whether your injury is something chiropractic can help with, just call. Dr. Roses will talk through what’s going on and let you know if we’re the right fit or if you need to see a different specialist.
Yes. Chiropractic care is one of the safest, most effective treatments for musculoskeletal injuries. It’s non-invasive, drug-free, and doesn’t put your body through additional trauma the way surgery or aggressive interventions can.
We use advanced techniques that are gentler and more precise than older adjustment methods. We also conduct a thorough assessment before any treatment begins, including imaging if necessary, to make sure we understand exactly what’s going on with your injury.
The biggest risk with chiropractic care is minor soreness after an adjustment, similar to what you’d feel after a workout. That usually goes away within a day or two. Serious complications are extremely rare, especially when you’re working with an experienced practitioner like Dr. Roses, who’s been doing this for over 40 years.
That’s up to you. Some people come in for an injury, heal up, and don’t return until something else happens. Others choose to continue with maintenance care because they notice they feel better, perform better, and stay injury-free when they get regular adjustments.
We don’t push ongoing care if you don’t want it. Our goal is to get you out of pain and back to your normal activity level as quickly as possible. If you’re happy with that and want to stop there, that’s fine.
That said, many athletes—especially those training regularly or competing—find that periodic adjustments help them stay ahead of injuries and perform at a higher level. It’s the same reason professional sports teams keep chiropractors on staff. Prevention is easier than recovery.
Yes, we work with most major insurance plans. Coverage varies depending on your specific plan, so it’s worth calling ahead to confirm what’s included and whether you’ll have a copay or deductible.
If you don’t have insurance or your plan doesn’t cover chiropractic care, we offer affordable self-pay rates. The goal is to make treatment accessible, not to create a financial barrier between you and getting better.
You can also ask about payment plans if cost is a concern. Our office staff is helpful and straightforward about pricing—they’ll walk you through your options before you commit to anything.
