Powering through pain does more harm than good because our brains perceive pain as a threat. Our body is constantly working to keep us safe and healthy, so pain tells us we are doing too much or working too hard. Assessing your body’s range of motion means you are listening to your body and protecting yourself!
The professional chiropractic team at Upstate Spine & Sport explains why athletes need to listen to their bodies. Learn more here to help prevent injuries.

Chiropractic care is a gentle, natural way to help children with CP improve mobility, reduce muscle tightness, and enhance overall well-being. By addressing misalignments in the spine and nervous system, we can support better movement, ease tension, and help your child feel more at ease in their body.
We’ve had the privilege of working with incredible families who have seen their children gain strength, improve posture, and experience a better quality of life. We don’t just treat symptoms—we focus on the whole child, providing care that supports their growth, development, and happiness.
If you’re looking for a caring, holistic approach to help your child with cerebral palsy, we’re here for you. Let’s work together to create more comfort, more movement, and more joy for your family. 💙

Many traditional chiropractic clinics focus on long-term treatments that require extensive in-office appointments, costing patients both time and money. Disability caused by spine-related pain is currently a major health problem, with approximately $600 billion spent annually in the United States for spine care (1). That is outrageous!
At Upstate Spine & Sport we provide a cost-effective alternative. We quickly identify what’s causing your discomfort, treat it, and teach you how to minimize any reoccurrence through specific exercises and principles. Our mission is to get you back to what you love as quickly as possible. If we can’t provide relief here in our clinic, we don’t waste your time -
we get you to the Upstate clinician who can find you the solution you deserve.
To achieve rapid results, our team takes an integrated approach to quickly solve problems, combining chiropractic physical medicine, sports rehabilitation & physical therapy, acupuncture & dry needling, massage therapy, fascial stretch therapy, nutrition, and more. Each patient is unique, requiring equally distinctive treatment programs. No patient will ever be sold a lifetime cookie cutter, 3X a week “treatment plan” based on proper “alignment”. Instead we get you out of our office and back to what you enjoy ASAP with the tools to help yourself. Here is what a patient had to say, chef Matt Mayo:
“Dr. Jolson is by far the best specialist I have ever been to for my back. I hesitate to say chiropractor because he is different than every one that I have been to before. Each appointment is a combination of physical therapy plus chiropractic care to where I have felt better and better each trip without feeling helpless in between visits due to the exercises I am shown how to do on my own. I can feel myself getting stronger and know that personally he has given me the tools to keep my problems in check on my own. I enjoy the personal accountability that he gives his patients because it puts you on a path to healing and not just a series of band-aid fixes where you become dependent on constant adjustments.”
While our focus is treating musculoskeletal injuries, we have many other services like acupuncture, nutritional advice & supplementation, and cupping. These techniques can help with a variety of other conditions from stress and anxiety, to fertility or digestive issues.
We are proud to be part of the official healthcare team for the Greenville Triumph, Greenville Drive, Furman University Paladins, Hincapie Racing Team, and for many local PGA Tour pros like Bill Haas, Ben Martin, and Jay Haas. Although we enjoy treating athletes, we love working with all of our patients: whether active or inactive, conditioned or deconditioned, old or young, you will be given the best possible care at Upstate Spine & Sport. If you have any questions or are curious if we can help, visit our website for more details, send us a message on facebook, or call us at 864.400.8005.
