Dealing with a sprain injury can be really painful and inconvenient. A sprain is an injury where your ligaments are stretched beyond their normal range, sometimes even causing a tear in the ligament itself. The result can be intense and sharp pains in the affected area. Many times this can include swelling and bruising of the area as well.
If you sustain a sprain or strain injury, it’s time to ice and elevate. Then, of course, to come see our chiropractic team in Oakland for an evaluation. We want to help get you on the quickest path to recovery.

There are a number of different ways that our team can help you heal from your sprain or strain injury. We will develop a personalized treatment plan based on the severity and location of your injury as well as your unique needs and preferences.
One of the most common ways we treat sprains and strains is with chiropractic adjustments. These gentle yet effective adjustments can help to reduce pain, inflammation, and stiffness while also promoting healing. On top of that, depending on your injury, we may help with certain stretching exercises to help with your healing process as well as strengthen the injured ligaments and surrounding tissue.
Sprained Ankle Treatment in Oakland
The most common type of sprain is with your ankle. This is because the ankle is constantly in motion and supports a lot of weight, making it more susceptible to injury. As you walk, run, exercise, or play sports, there is the risk of your ankle bending incorrectly causing the ligaments to stretch too far or even tear.
If you sustain a sprained ankle, our team can help. We will start by doing a thorough evaluation to determine the severity of your ankle injury and develop a treatment plan that’s right for you. This may include chiropractic adjustments, stretches, and exercises. We will also provide guidance on how to best care for your sprained ankle at home between visits. This commonly includes a combination of ice/heat applications as well as elevation to help reduce swelling.
If you have sustained a sprain or strain injury, don’t wait to seek treatment. The sooner you can start your treatments and care for your ankle, the faster and easier recovery can be.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Sprains & Strains
There are many benefits of chiropractic care when it comes to sprains and strains. Chiropractic adjustments are a safe and gentle way to promote healing while also reducing pain, inflammation, and stiffness.

One of the other major benefits of seeing a chiropractor for a sprain injury is that is a natural way to promote healing. That means there are no invasive surgeries or pain medications involved in your care plan.

I’ve been a regular here for nearly 10 years after one of my good friends referred me to Dr. Verma and I’m so grateful he did! It’s the highlight of the week for me; from the great dad jokes to the immediate pain relief after each visit! When Dr. Verma goes on vacation Dr. Mylo has also treated me and they’re both very skilled at what they do and provide helpful guidance for decreasing my chronic back pain issues, which I’m very grateful for. Highly recommend them to anyone who’s looking for some holistic pain relief!
Dr. Mylo has been a miracle worker over several years and injuries! He’s gentle, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I always feel better after an adjustment!
I couldn’t recommend Oakbay Chiropractic enough. From the front desk and clerical team to Dr. Mylo Magtoto, everyone is kind, patient, and genuinely there to care for you. I don’t feel rushed or like I’m just another number cycling through.
They helped check my insurance coverage (they take lots of insurance plans), and their out-of-pocket costs are very reasonable. They offer massage too!
Mostly though, Dr. Magtoto really knows what he is doing. He is very knowledgeable and approached my issues in a holistic way without me even having to prompt him to. He’s also just very kind. I’ve been receiving chiropractic care for 15 years now, so I choose my chiropractors wisely, and this place is a gem.
I've been seeing Dr. Roverso for the past month to help me with some postural issues and frankly, too much time in front of a computer working. I've had chronic upper back pain and I had enough. I walked away after my treatments with a less pain. Dr. Roverso has helped me work through the chronic issues and I will say, I do feel a lot better through the adjustments and tissue work. It's been a game changer!
The location is convenient to access and parking is easy.
I highly recommend coming here if you have any pain or stiffness that you want to work through.
I love going to see Dr. Verma at Oakbay Chiropractic. My husband and I have been going to him ever since we moved to the area 4 years ago. And our son has been going to see him for over 15 years. Dr. Verma is really fun. He gets us laughing over his jokes, which I'm sure is part of the whole healing experience. He is a great listener, and really cares about his patients. Especially nice is that he is so mindful of the exact treatment methods that will best suit each individual client's needs. I feel very safe there and very well taken care of. In my particular case he doesn't do any of the loud "cracking" of the bones (the way chiropractors have treated me in the past), because that isn't what I wanted and he actually listened to me and took my requests seriously. The whole staff are super friendly and efficient. We are almost always in and out exactly on time, and there is virtually no waiting. We have never had trouble finding parking on the street. All the trees and flowers around the building make it feel like a little oasis in the city. I love having the option to make or reschedule our own appointments online, and he takes our insurance, which makes our actual out of pocket cost amazingly low! As a bonus, Dr.Verma has been a wealth of great information on the random topics I would ask him about, like where to get the best masala dosas, where to find the best beaches and tidal pools, where to find a good gym, or where to get a great haircut, all of which came in very handy as we were new to the area. I highly recommend Oakbay Chiropractic and Dr. Verma. On a scale of 1 to10, he's an 11.
I came in with a yearlong hamstring injury and major scar tissue buildup - Dr. Mylo is an expert in myofacial release and has completely worked out my scar tissue over a few pivotal months, which has allowed me to build back to running ultras again! Thank you Dr. Mylo!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Mylo for a few months and he’s been so helpful working on fixing my many issues. I also occasionally see Dr. Roverso and Dr. Verma who are also great!
