Performance-Focused Sports Chiropractic Care in Lake Travis

Dr. Matt Centofonti treats athletes as athletes — integrating manual therapy, movement assessment, and corrective exercise to get you back in the game and performing better than before.

Sports Chiropractic Is More Than Pain Management

Sports chiropractic care is a specialized discipline focused on the biomechanical demands of athletic performance. Where general chiropractic addresses pain at the site of complaint, sports chiropractic works upstream — identifying why the pain developed in the first place.

At Kinetix, every visit is built around three priorities: find the root cause, restore optimal movement, and keep you training. We don’t take you out of the game unnecessarily. We work around your schedule, your sport, and your goals.

  • Performance optimization — improve biomechanics, not just reduce symptoms
  • Injury prevention — identify movement dysfunctions before they become injuries
  • Rapid recovery — get back to full training faster between sessions
  • Sport-specific treatment — every plan is built around your activity demands

How Every Appointment Works

Dr. Matt’s approach is built on a repeatable clinical framework — systematic, efficient, and always athlete-first.

Step 01

Movement Screen (SFMA)

Selective Functional Movement Assessment to identify the root cause of dysfunction — not just the symptom location.

Step 02

Soft Tissue Release (ART)

Full Body Active Release Techniques to address fascial restrictions, scar tissue, and tissue quality limiting motion.

Step 03

Joint Treatment

Chiropractic manipulation or mobilization targeted to joints identified in the movement screen — where motion is actually restricted.

Step 04

Corrective Exercise

Progressive exercise prescription sent via app with video tutorials — building strength around the areas we’ve just released.

Sports Chiropractic — Common Questions

How is sports chiropractic different from general chiropractic care?

Sports chiropractic prioritizes performance and biomechanical function alongside pain relief. Dr. Matt uses SFMA movement assessment, Full Body ART, and corrective exercise in an integrated session — not just spinal manipulation. The focus is on why your body broke down, not just where it hurts.

Can I continue training while receiving sports chiropractic care?

In most cases, yes. Dr. Matt’s philosophy is to keep athletes training whenever safely possible, modifying load and movement rather than prescribing rest. Unnecessary downtime is avoided — the corrective exercise program is designed to reinforce treatment between sessions.

How many visits will I need?

It depends on the complexity of the issue. Acute injuries with a clear mechanism typically resolve in 4–8 visits. Chronic compensation patterns that have developed over months or years require more time. Dr. Matt establishes a clear treatment timeline at your first visit and reassesses regularly.

Do you accept insurance?

Kinetix Sport + Spine operates as an out-of-network provider. We focus on delivering the highest-quality, most efficient care possible — without the treatment limitations insurance networks often impose. Many patients use HSA/FSA funds. We can provide a superbill for potential out-of-network reimbursement upon request.
