Alexander Chiropractic in Pleasanton Supports Swimmers to Stay Strong and Move Freely

Swimming is a popular way to stay active in Pleasanton, whether you’re training competitively or simply enjoying the water at places like the Dolores Bengtson Aquatic Center or Shadow Cliffs Regional Recreation Area. But every stroke, dive, and kick relies on a body that can move well, breathe deeply, and stay balanced. That’s where Alexander Chiropractic and Wellness comes in.

Why Swimmers Need Support for the Shoulders, Spine, and More

The repetitive nature of swimming takes a toll on the muscles of the body, especially on the shoulders, spine, hips, and knees. Without proper alignment and muscle balance, it’s easy to end up with overuse injuries like swimmer’s shoulder, lower back tension, or knee strain. These issues aren’t just annoying—they can slow you down in the pool.

Personalized Chiropractic Care With a Competitive Edge

Dr Powell’s own experiences as an athlete give him extra insight into the challenges swimmers face. With clinic director Dr. Simon Kuang, he provides tailored chiropractic care that includes precise adjustments, Active Release Technique® (ART®), Graston® soft tissue therapy, and customized at-home care. Their goal? Support spinal alignment, shoulder function, and muscular balance—all key to helping swimmers perform at their best.
