Elite Care Chiropractic Center in Encinitas applies sports-focused chiropractic care on North El Camino Real, anchored by Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician credentialing and Applied Kinesiology certification. The practice combines Active Release Technique, PNF stretching, and computerized gait analysis to prevent and treat sports injuries—a multi-modality sports-medicine scope that intersects with the acupuncture-based recovery protocols at Chong Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine. Custom orthotic fitting begins with gait analysis mapping arch collapse, pronation angles, and stride asymmetry before fabricating corrective insoles for runners and triathletes. Both practitioners are competitive endurance athletes with multiple Ironman triathlon and marathon finishes, applying direct biomechanical experience to return-to-sport treatment timelines similar to the functional rehab programming at Ecore Wellness. Advanced sports protocols include Active Release Technique soft-tissue mobilization targeting the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and subscapularis rotator cuff muscles to restore overhead throwing and swimming mechanics.
