Surf to Summit — Hingham, MA's Innovative Sports Chiropractic & Performance Clinic for Chronic Pain, CrossFit, Golf & Post‑Surgical Rehab
If you're living in Hingham and find yourself sidelined by nagging injuries or frustrated by chronic pain that just won't quit, you're likely looking for more than a quick fix. You deserve a healthcare partner who understands that your goal isn't just to stop hurting—it's to get back to the CrossFit box, the golf course, or the running trail with more resilience than before. At Surf to Summit Spine and Sport, we provide a bridge between clinical rehabilitation and peak physical performance.
Located conveniently inside Momentum Fitness Center, our practice was founded by Dr. Brent Chuma on the principle that movement is medicine. We've moved away from the traditional, high-volume chiropractic model to offer something truly innovative for the Hingham community. Whether you're recovering from surgery or managing long-term discomfort, our mission is to transform your challenges into opportunities for growth.
The Surf to Summit Difference: A Personalized Path to Lasting Results
Most traditional healthcare settings involve rushed, 15-minute visits where you barely have time to explain your symptoms before being ushered out the door. We do things differently. At Surf to Summit Spine and Sport, we prioritize comprehensive, personalized care that respects your time and your athletic goals.
Beyond the Clock: No More Rushed Visits
We believe that high-quality care requires a deep dive into your history and movement patterns. By eliminating the assembly-line approach to chiropractic care, we provide the space needed for thorough evaluations and hands-on manual therapy. This allows us to address the root cause of your pain rather than just chasing symptoms, ensuring that every session moves you closer to your specific performance targets.
Our Three-Phase Methodology: From Rehab to Performance
Our clinic utilizes a signature Rehab to Performance continuum that guides you through three distinct stages:
Performance Assessment: We start with a comprehensive movement screening and goal-setting session to create your unique roadmap.
Personalized Treatment Plan: We integrate chiropractic care, dry needling, and soft-tissue therapy to restore balance and mobility.
Train For Performance: We transition you into customized training plans that build injury resilience and elevate your physical capabilities.
Integrated Care: Your Health Journey Inside Momentum Fitness Center
Our location inside Momentum Fitness Center allows for a seamless integration of treatment and training. This environment is perfect for those seeking personal training or small group training alongside their clinical care. Because we're embedded within a premier fitness ecosystem, we can collaborate directly with trainers to ensure your gym routine supports your recovery and longevity.
Specialized Care for Hingham's Active Lifestyles
Hingham is a community that moves, and we're here to ensure nothing holds you back. From the local golfer looking to improve their drive to the CrossFitter aiming for a new personal record, our sport-specific care is designed for your lifestyle.
Conquering Chronic Pain: A Holistic Path to Lasting Relief
Chronic pain can feel like an invisible barrier to the life you want to lead. Our approach to holistic wellness goes beyond the spine to look at how your entire body functions as a unit. By combining manual therapy and traditional chiropractic care, we help patients resolve persistent issues like sciatica, recurring headaches, and joint stiffness that haven't responded to conventional treatments.
Research shows that comprehensive chiropractic care is an effective, evidence-based treatment for back pain and musculoskeletal conditions. The American College of Physicians recommends chiropractic adjustments as a first-line treatment before considering medications or surgery. At Surf to Summit, we take this approach further by integrating soft tissue therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and posture correction strategies to create lasting relief.
Optimizing Performance for Athletes: CrossFit, Golfers & Runners
Athletes require a specialized level of attention to maintain peak function. We offer:
CrossFit: Mobility work and stability training to handle high-intensity loads without injury.
Golf: Rotational power development and shoulder/hip health assessments to improve your swing.
Running: Gait analysis and lower-extremity injury prevention to keep you on the trails.
Our goal is to help you train for the "marginal decade," focusing on long-term functional health so you can stay active for life. We understand that modern athletes need more than just symptom relief—they need strategies to enhance recovery capacity and maintain consistent performance.
Accelerating Post-Surgical Recovery & Preventing Re-Injury
Post-surgical rehab often stops once you can perform basic daily tasks, but "basic" isn't enough for an athlete. We specialize in the late-stage rehab process, ensuring that your return to sport is safe and progressive. We help you rebuild the strength and confidence necessary to push your limits without the fear of re-injury.
Our comprehensive approach addresses what happens between workouts—how well you're sleeping, how quickly you're bouncing back, and whether you're showing signs of cumulative fatigue. By making recovery a strategic part of your training plan, we ensure you can absorb training stress and perform consistently.
Our Comprehensive Toolkit: Empowering Your Wellness Journey
At Surf to Summit Spine and Sport, we use evidence-based tools to accelerate your healing. Our clinical expertise includes advanced manual therapy, massage, and functional movement screens that provide a clear picture of your physical health.
We also address specific conditions like TMJ and sports-related strains using specialized techniques like dry needling and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization. This comprehensive toolkit ensures that whether you're here for traditional chiropractic care or advanced performance training, you're receiving the most effective interventions available today.
Unlike traditional chiropractic approaches that focus solely on spinal adjustments, we integrate multiple modalities to enhance your range of motion, improve flexibility, and reduce injury risk. Our care is grounded in performance—addressing movement efficiency, tissue health, and nervous system regulation to optimize your recovery capacity.
