Chiropractic for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Sports Medicine Northwest is the official sports medicine team of Ivan Salaverry MMA in South Lake Union Seattle. We work with the fiighters and competitors during their 8 week Fight Camp leading to their competition or event. The way we use chiropractic for brazilian jiu jitsu and mma competitors is unique in our field. After working with the MMA and BJJ communities for years, we are familiar with the patterns that develop in the fighting body. BJJ players are never flat on their back. They flex their spine to protect their necks, they keep their elbows tight the body to prevent giving up an underhook. The natural result fo this defensive position resembles a curled fetal position. (See picture of the guy in black below)
Our job as a staff is to correct any biomechanical imbalances that prevent our athlete from healing quickly and building durabilty. To create balance and maintain joint stability in the brazilian jiu jitsu athlete, the practitioner must know how to passively and actively work the athlete’s shoulders through horizontal abduction, the middle back through extension. We accomplish this with chiropractic adjustments but also through decompression tables, graston technique, sports massage and corrective exercises.
Seminar: Neck Strength For Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Clinical Neck Strength: The MMA Series
hosted by Dr. Skylar Pond at Ivan Salaverry MMA
I was recently exposed to the world of brazilian jiu jitsu and like many others before me, I’ve been bitten by that bug. To prepare for my latest appearance on Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Challenge, I turned to the expertise of the staff at ISMMA. Grappling put its hooks in me.
Long after the BSR episode came and went, I kept coming back to ISMMA for more. What began as a quick crash course in techniques to successfully throttle hillbillies in the desert on the Country Music Television network has turned into its own journey.
As is my habit, I jumped into Jiu Jitsu head first and have the opportunity to test prevailing rehab concepts first hand. Through that process I’ve developed an approach to strengthening the neck and spine specific for the MMA and Jiu Jitsu athlete.
