Treating sports injuries and working with rehabilitation in Oregon City.

Quality movement is key to a healthy, high-functioning lifestyle, or for those who are highly active, your body is exposed to more impact and repetitive movement. If your movement is not biomechanically sound, you may be susceptible to more repetitive stress injuries. We help athletes avoid these pitfalls while improving their performance simultaneously.

For those who are more sedentary, you risk developing injury from deconditioning and small increases in activity levels often cause unnecessary injury. Don’t injure your low back on your first day out gardening! We can help prevent those unnecessary injuries as well as fix you up when they occur.

Whenever we add stress to the body, it’s important to take action to ensure the body can support us as it is intended. This is true for both our daily life and throughout our physical activities, sports, games, and workouts.

We work with all kinds of athletes:

Avid weightlifters
Everyday gym-goers
Yogis
Hikers
Runners
Cyclists
Gymnasts
Dancers
Golfers
And more

No matter your sport of choice, your talent matters. Your body is relying on you to take care of it so that it can take care of you. If you lead an active lifestyle or want to, proactive maintenance is just as essential as getting your injuries mended so your body can heal correctly.

Our team is here for your sports chiropractic care and rehabilitation. We recommend a visit to see us at the first sign of discomfort, pain, or loss of motion. By treating your injury quickly with natural, evidence-based solutions, you have less downtime, you avoid putting other areas of the body at risk, and you efficiently and quickly get back to doing what you love.

Our sports chiropractic patients trust us to get them ready for events and competitions, and you can too. We know what it takes to get your body and mind prepared, balanced, and performing at their best. No matter your current ability level or what your goal is, we will be of benefit.

Our active patients visit our Oregon City chiropractic office because they are experiencing various symptoms, including:

Hip, leg, or ankle pain
Shoulder pain
Back and low back pain
Lifting injuries
Loss of mobility, flexibility, and/or strength
Sore or stiff muscles or joints
Shin splints
Golfer’s and Tennis elbows
Hamstring and hip flexors strains
Weakened muscles
Concussions
And more

The reasons for these sports-related pains include:

Poor movement patterns with high repetition
Muscle and body fatigue
Muscle overuse
Repetitive muscle and joint use
Forceful impacts or blows (hits and tackles)
Over or under-training
Improper warm-ups and cool-downs
Insufficient time to allow the body to heal
Dehydration
And more

We are happy to help those who lead a more active lifestyle and to advise them throughout their event preparation and after. We work with people at every fitness level, and offer treatments that encourage the body’s natural healing process and allow for strengthening that maximize performance and minimizes downtime.

As active people ourselves, we understand the frustration and heartbreak that occurs when we get injured during our activities, which is why we will do whatever we can to get you back out there with a body you can rely on.

Sports chiropractic care and rehab are safe, responsible, and efficient. Our office takes most insurances, so not only are we time-effective, but also cost-effective.

Call us to learn more about how we can help enhance your performance and get your body fully functioning.

ACTIVE RELEASE TECHNIQUE (ART)
This treatment works on the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves and quickly targets scar tissue, restoring function in the affected areas and minimizing pain. We use this safe solution on many of our muscle- and joint-overuse athletes.
DIVERSIFIED CHIROPRACTIC TECHNIQUE (DCT)
A targeted low-amplitude, high-velocity, manually-provided thrust to the restricted joint. Often, the DCT will immediately restore range of motion and offer comfort to the patient.
Instrument assisted soft tissue manipulation (IASTM)
These soft tissue manipulations utilize chiropractic instruments that deliver targeted pulses to specific joints, restoring range of motion to the affected vertebra or joint. We use this solution on patients in training and after an athletic event.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a painless, non-invasive procedure that increases oxygen circulation and blood flow in the body, which helps the body to relax and heal. Our doctors use a class IV laser therapy that is the highest, most advanced level for ultimate results.
Kinesiotaping
Covering injured areas of the body with this specially designed tape, pain and inflammation are reduced, the muscles can relax, and mobility will be restored.
Rehabilitation
Athletes see us for preventative support, enhanced performance and endurance, and to remedy pain and discomfort. Using rehabilitative therapies, our team can effectively maximize the body’s healing process and get it highly functioning.
Corrective exercises and stretches
We offer our patients in-office and at-home corrective exercises that promote higher function and health, offering preventative care through strength and endurance. These exercises are designed for the individual athlete to aid in performance, longevity, and overall movement.
Functional movement assessment
This movement assessment uses seven full-body movement tests that relay irregular or improper patterns so we can determine the best, fastest course of action for treatment.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy allows the body to relax, stabilize, and rejuvenate. Our bodies take a beating, especially when we put them through tireless training and activity; we’ll help support yours through massage, which provides healing time and prepares it for its next endeavor.

I highly recommend Dr. Kyle Bangs and his team at Function Performance. I was referred to them by my trainer after experiencing a muscle spasm which caused sciatic nerve pain down my left leg. Dr. Kyle Bangs and his team did an amazing job helping me recover over a 5-week period. They focused on my mobility and flexibility, and helped me learn many different stretches and exercises that truly helped me. Their facilities are great and treatment was tailored to my needs. It was not all about just getting adjusted which is a big differentiator for them.

When I first met Dr. Ben and the team at Performance Function I was in such bad shape. I was 10 months post back surgery only to have an MRI with nearly identical results as pre-surgery. Other doctors advised my only real option was another surgery. But after a year of not being able to sit, stand, or walk - I was desperate to find a solution. After 5 weeks, not only can I sit, stand, and walk but I’m starting to incorporate strength training - completely unthinkable a few weeks ago. I cannot recommend them enough - literally changed my life!

I have only seen one chiropractor at this office so I can only speak to that experience. Dr.Ben is kind, patient, knowledgeable, and most of all effective. I have used him twice now for different issues. He never pushes for therapy’s you don’t need and there is never pressure to come back. He will give you exercises and stretches to do at home but doesn’t judge if you aren’t keeping up on your end. Although, all his advice works when implemented. The Ladies at the reception Desk are so polite and friendly. They take all the hard work out of getting the best from your appointments and insurance providers. They exemplify what all health providers should strive to be. I wish I could give more stars.

I have been seeing doctor Kyle for the last two years. At first only when I threw my back out, once a year or so. But now I go in on a monthly routine and it has helped my back tremendously. They are not like your typical chiropractor that spends 5 minutes cracking your back and sends you on your way, they take the time stretching, massaging, and focusing on the area that's giving you problems. They also provide you with stretches and exercises for long term fixes. I am very happy and highly recommend these guys!

Ben, Kyle and their staff at Function Performance are phenomenal. My entire family goes to them. I have children that are athletes, and they do amazing physical therapy, strength training exercises and adjustments. I was in an automobile accident, and have been seeing them ever since.They are professional, extremely knowledgeable and I'm so grateful that myself, and my kids have professionals like them to keep us healthy and to heal.

I have recommended this place to everyone I j one and will continue to do so! Definitely deserves more than 5 stars!!!

Dr Ben and Dr Kyle and their support staff really know there stuff! They have always been able to help me with reoccurring back issues that come up from time to time and also all of my sports related injuries. The atmosphere in the building and staff are awesome there as well. I have been going to them for the past 6 years, I highly recommend Function Performance!

Fantastic place! The staff are great! Great communication and they always greet you with a smile! And, they remember your name which seems to be a rarity these days! Dr. Bangs has magic hands and got me back to where I needed to be after a car accident in no time. In fact, my shoulder range of motion might be better than it was to begin with. If I required chiropractic treatment again, I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!
