Why Your Injury Keeps Coming Back

If you’re like most people we see, this isn’t the first thing you’ve tried. You rested. You followed YouTube rehab videos. You went to physical therapy where you were rushed through generic exercises.

Maybe you even tried injections or pain meds. And yet… the same issue keeps showing up. That’s because most approaches focus on where it hurts, not why it’s happening.

Pain is usually the symptom—not the problem.

Until you identify what’s actually driving the issue (how you move, load, recover, and train), the pain may calm down temporarily—but it almost always returns once you get back to normal life or training. That’s the injury–reinjury cycle.

Our approach starts by finding the root cause and building a clear, outcome-based plan to fix it—so you’re not stuck managing the same issue year after year.

How To Eliminate Pain With Shooting Your Bow Without Medications, Surgery, Or Skipping Your Shooting Sessions

One day you’re out on the archery range shooting your bow when all of a sudden you get hit with what feels like a lightning bolt of pain. You think to yourself “Oh man, this really hurts, but I’m sure it’ll feel better by tomorrow.”

You wake up hopeful the next morning, but the pain when shooting your bow is still there. It continues to bug you for several weeks, and now you can barely shoot your bow without terrible pain.

Naturally, you go to the doctor’s office and they tell you to ice it and rest, and to stop shooting your bow because it’s “bad for your body,” and they might even give you some anti-inflammatories or pain medication. Even though you don’t want to stop shooting, you do it because it’s what they recommended.

Eventually you start to feel a little better, so you feel like you’re ready to start training for archery season again. Unfortunately, once you start to get back into it, the pain with shooting your bow  starts again, and you’re left frustrated and unsure of what to do.

This Is The Vicious Cycle That Many Archers Find Themselves In.

You’re in a lot of pain so you see a healthcare provider and take their advice to rest it and stop training, and you start to feel better. Unfortunately, you may have lost some strength, muscle mass, conditioning etc., and you haven’t done anything to truly resolve what’s going on in your body. Once it starts to feel better, you try to start working through your shot sequence again, only for the pain to return, and the cycle starts all over again. This is something that so many of our clients have experienced before they have come to see us.

How Are We Different?

What our clients find is that when they come to see us, they actually get a customized plan that helps get them feeling better and stronger at the same time. Because of this, when their pain is resolved and they return to their normal training, they are able to do so without their pain coming back.

If You’re Currently Living With An Archery Injury, Here’s 7 More Reasons Why It Could Be Lasting Longer Than It Should:

  1. You thought it would go away on it’s own – but it didn’t.
  2. You went to the doctor who told you to rest and take painkillers – but the pills did nothing to help you, and as soon as they wore off, the pain struck again.
  3. A family member, or friend, told you that everybody gets pain with shooting their bow at some point, and that you’re just going to have to deal with it or dial down your poundage.
  4. You tried other Healthcare Professionals, or a physical therapist in the past, but nothing they said or did seemed to help.
  5. You tried YouTube exercises but they either didn’t do a thing, or made your pain worse.
  6. You thought it would be a good idea to rest because your pain was so bad, but all that did was make you feel even more stiff and tight with shooting your bow the next time you went to the range.
  7. You decided to get a few “massages and adjustments” hoping that would fix the pain, but all they did was feel nice and relaxing, and didn’t do anything to fix it long term.
