Having an active lifestyle is important for overall health. However, activity comes with its own wear and tear on the body. Aches, pains, misalignments, and injuries can result from physical activity. Sports, working out, and being active can all turn into issues that you want to stay on top of so you can stay at peak performance.
Athletes that want a competitive edge and be at the top of their game are seeing our Chiropractic team, and you should too.
All Sports
All sports can be hard on the body in different ways. Seeing a chiropractor can help you heal and keep going strong.
All Ages
From young kids, to high school athletes, to retirees, all bodies feel the impact of playing sports and can benefit from chiropractic care.
All Levels
Regardless if you’re in little league or a professional athlete, chiropractic care can help take care of your body from sports.
While participating in sports has many health benefits, there are also many risks. Sports Chiropractic Care can help prevent and heal sports-related injuries as well as optimize your body for improved performance.

Common Sports Injuries in South Lake Tahoe
Physical activity can be hard on the body. The more active you are, the more wear and tear you put on your body, which increases the likelihood you’ll experience aches, pains, and even an injury. You can of course experience issues when you participate in traditional sports like Basketball, Football, Soccer, etc. But here in South Lake Tahoe, we also see a wide variety of injuries that result from outdoor recreational activities:
Skiing injuries
Snowboarding injuries
Mountain biking injuries
Hiking injuries
Water sports like wakeboarding or foiling
and more…
Whether it’s a hard fall, twisting your body in an odd way, or just from over exerting yourself, your body takes the toll.
Anytime you experience an injury, it’s highly recommended to get help. You want to make sure that your body heals properly and quickly. Failing to guide your body to heal correctly could result in long term problems and could even prevent you from being as active as you once where. The last thing you want is a minor injury to develop into something more serious.
Stay on top of your injuries and let us help you get back to full strength!
Benefits of Sports Chiropractic Care
Why should athletes see a Chiropractor? Active lifestyles take a toll on the body. All the additional movement and activity can prevent your body from recovering properly. To stay at peak performance, you want your body to be well aligned, increase mobility, be pain-free, and recover quickly from your workouts. Chiropractic care can help.
As you exercise, your joints and spine can take on wear and tear. Misalignments happen all the time. This puts pressure on your muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves. This pressure can cause pain and decreased performance. Chiropractic care helps to restore proper alignment of your spine, decrease muscle tension, and improve your range of motion.
Chiropractors are specifically trained to help with sports injuries. We can help you recover quickly from strains, sprains, and other injuries. We will also work to prevent future injuries from occurring.
If you’re an athlete or physically active person, don’t wait until you’re injured to see a chiropractor. Make an appointment today and start feeling better tomorrow. You’ll be amazed at the difference chiropractic care can make in your overall health and performance!
How Chiropractors Treat Athletes
Dr. Langan in South Lake Tahoe performs full evaluations on your spine, joints, ligaments, and muscles, to find any potential issues holding you back from peak performance. We treat those areas through spinal adjustments.
An adjustment is a manual maneuver used to correct misalignments and restore proper alignment of the spine. Chiropractors use their hands to apply a gentle force to the joint, which helps to improve mobility and decrease pain.
Adjustments are safe and effective for all athletes, from weekend warriors to Olympians. We have helped countless athletes achieve their personal best by correcting misalignments and helping them recover quickly from injuries.
Chiropractors are specially trained in sports medicine and can help prevent injuries as well as assist in recording from rigorous training and performance.

Dr. Tim Langan is the most amazing and professional chiropractor I have ever been too.

He is really the best in this profession and each visit is alleviating the stiffness and pain I've been enduring.
Dr. Langan is a great chiropracter! With his knowledge, he effectively evaluates the problems & treats in a timely manner for quick appointments with good results!

Annie and Tim were fantastic. My wife and I own Tahoe Hyperbaric Wellness in Truckee, and we came down to check out their Soft Wave therapy for my broken toe and my wife's planter fasciitis. We were also looking to get a Softwave unit for our practice in Truckee. Annie and Tim were very knowledgeable, and I can honestly say that after 48 hours my foot feels better as does my wife's. We enjoyed our experience and would highly recommend it!
Dr.Langan is very thorough and detailed to exactly what is going on with your body, before him I never had a good experience with chiropractors but he has definitely changed my mind about that.. they make you feel like you are family.. highly recommend.. when my wife was pregnant and couldn’t get in to see him we ran into him at the store and he did a quick adjustment to her right there.. that’s just awesome..
I love dr. langan and all of the staff. dr langan is a good listener and had many techniques to address all issues that one may have. his bedside manners are the best. he has alot of experience from all his years of practice in texas. he gives helpful recommendations regarding activities and exercises.<br>Jamo the office mascot is the best and cutest pooch anyone could have. the environment is comfortable and welcoming. I give tahoe chiropractic 5 stars. they are awesome.
Dr. Tim and Angie are remarkable professionals and a great help to orient new patients into treatment care and the community. I’m really grateful to have started treatment with them, after moving to SLT from Monterey, CA.<br>Excellent care, manners and intentionality. It really emoted me to tears, as I was in great pain for a chronic condition.
Dr Langdon is the best. If you have back pain he will do everything he can to help you. The best in South Lake Tahoe. He has helped me many times. Him and his wife are very sweet. They also have a very sweet family. Very very nice.
Dr. Tim Langan, DC is BEST. CHIROPRACTOR. EVER. Initially helped me with a severe case of TMJ. Two months later, I had severe muscular pain in my shoulder. He was able to fit me in right away and take care of it. His office staff is also wonderful.
I had less 10 days to run a marathon and my whole body was hurting. Tim worked on my neck and knee. It was incredible! I was so impressed how well I felt. I was able to run my race. Thank you
Visiting Tahoe for the week and needed an adjustment for relief from travel, and to support enjoying some long hikes. So grateful to get scheduled within 24 hours. Dr. Langan and Angi were both so personable, knowledgeable, and thorough. I left with great relief, none of the pain I came in with, and exercises to support the adjustment. Definitely returning on the next trip!
Dr. Langan and his wife are an asset to our community. I’ve been going for about 2 years with very positive results. They both are knowledgeable, professional and conscientious. We need more businesses run like their operation. Highly recommended!
Great first experience, came in with no expectations and left with knowledge along with feeling flexible. I will be coming back when I can. They make you feel comfortable while juggling multiple people at once
I was in pain on my lower back when we arrived to South Lake Tahoe from Las Vegas. I started to look for a chiropractor near the area. I called a couple of places but I needed an appointment unfortunately. But when I called Tahoe Chiropractic Clinic, Angy was able to take me in the next hour from my call. I couldn't be any happier than that. I met with Dr Tim and he really took care of my situation. He was so polite and compassionate. Cracked my back and did an adjustment. I walked out feeling much better. I would definitely recommend this clinic if you are in the area and need of a chiropractic while visiting beautiful Tahoe. Thank you Dr. Tim and Angy, you are so awesome!
Great service and very friendly staff. I feel better every time I go. Tim and Angie are very accommodating when it comes to getting me in at the last minute.
I hadn't seen Dr. Langan in a couple years. He helped me with some chronic pain today, feeling better finally. He explained clearly what he was doing, and provided a flexible treatment plan. Angela gave me a heads up about a minor issue with my insurance account numbering, and I appreciate her courtesy in taking the time to explain a potential headache in the future. Great doctor, great manager. 👍
I have loved coming here from day one. My massage therapist Recommended Tim. Tim cares for his patients and will always listen, give any needed advice for extra issues that may arise that he can treat and show you how to do on your own to get relief. Besides getting put in proper alignment, the office is welcoming and inviting and Angi is always super friendly and helpful. Wonderful family practice who cares!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Tim for nearly six years now, and even after moving out of town and off the mountain, I remain a loyal client. He’s an essential part of my team of alternative care providers, and I’m deeply grateful for his knowledge, experience, and the genuine care he offers—not just for my body, but for my overall well-being.<br><br>Whether I’ve injured myself doing something careless or simply need to maintain alignment, Dr. Tim is always ready to help. His treatments consistently restore my body’s mechanics and provide lasting relief. One example: I used to struggle with tingling in my hands and fingers from prior nerve damage—his adjustments resolve it immediately.<br><br>If you’re serious about your health and wellness, do yourself a favor and make Dr. Tim a part of your ongoing care. You’ll be better for it.

I was happy to have found someone that could help me while I was on vacation in Tahoe. DR. Tim Langan was professional and personable. He was able to help me with the pain I was experiencing and gave me undivided attention and guidance.
This place is awesome! I through my back out 3 weeks ago. I had been trying to fix it myself , didn’t work . I started searching for a new chiropractor after my old one moved his business off the hill . I called and spoke with Angie , she must have heard the pain in my voice and squeezed me in that afternoon. What a life saver ! They put me on 2 different machines to loosen up my locked lower back . WOW ! I’m still sore and going back this week to readjust it . However after my visit , I felt a ton better . Looking forward to my next treatment. It seems like this doc can get me on the right track of feeling less pain soon. Thank you Dr. Langan & Angie 🤙🤙☕️
Tahoe chiropractic South Lake Tahoe is the the best chiropractic place I have been to. Finding a chiropractor that you can trust is very hard. Dr Timothy Langan listens to his patients needs while doing what ia required to heal. His staff is amazing. My husband threw his back out and they went above and beyond to get ya in to be seen. He went from crawling on the floor to walking and returning to every day activities the next day. Can’t say enough about them
Came in last minute with some back and shoulder pain and Tim and his wife Angie were great! Made me feel right at home and took care of the problem right away.<br>Thank you so much.
My favorite chiropractor! An amazing environment, super kind and supportive, and takes the time to explain a bit of what’s going on which is so helpful. Dr. Langan is the best chiropractor out there
