Treating Bicycling Aches & Pains

Biking is a great form of exercise that strengthens your muscles, joints, bones, and cardiovascular system. Unfortunately, biking can cause injuries and accidents that can be serious.

Many aches and pains are temporary and can be relieved by rest and recovering. If the pain continues for longer than a few days or becomes intense, you should consider seeing an integrated medical practice.

There are natural treatments, including acupuncture, massage therapy, trigger point injections, and chiropractic care. Part of overcoming these aches and pains is to understand the root cause of the pain.
