Preventing Pain From Becoming Chronic

The rapid deceleration of auto accidents often causes whiplash, muscle tightness, herniations, and subluxations (misalignments) in the spine. Even if you didn’t break a bone, you may feel the pain of sprains or strains, and your joints might be out of balance.

If left unaddressed, these issues can develop into degeneration. When injuries don’t heal correctly, the body sends calcium deposits that cause joints to fuse together. With time, the pain and dysfunction become increasingly worse, and may even become untreatable.


If you've been injured as a result of an auto accident or other incident, we encourage you to begin by scheduling an appointment in our office. The sooner you come in, the sooner we can determine the cause of your pain and help you find relief. Many of the patients who come into our office have suffered from pain as a result of a car accident, or slip-and-fall, but we have the skill and experience to help regardless of the cause of your injury.

Furthermore, for those who have suffered from back injuries as a result of an accident, we also provide spinal adjustments, massage therapy, and other chiropractic services that can help relieve your pain.


WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR APPOINTMENT WITH OUR INJURY SPECIALISTS TEAM

When you schedule an appointment with our injury specialists, we'll begin by discussing the specifics of your injury and how it occurred, along with the symptoms you've been experiencing. This will help us get a better idea of what to expect in terms of your injuries. From there, we can propose a customized treatment plan and timeline to help you return to your normal way of life as soon as possible and to the extent possible.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Chiropractic care utilizes manual manipulation of the spine to restore the normal movement and position of the spinal vertebrae. It is by far the single-most effective treatment for minimizing the long-term impact of car accident injuries, especially when coupled with massage therapy, trigger point therapy, and other soft tissue rehabilitation modalities.


Many times, individuals who have been injured in a car accident experience such intense muscle pain and stiffness that they simply cannot function normally. When left untreated, this discomfort can be a serious issue. Some individuals experience indicators right away, such as blurred vision, headaches, shoulder pain, dizziness, reduced range of motion and arm pain. Symptoms left untreated can have long term effects and may result in chronic neck or back pain, muscle weakness, ligament problems, and disc damage. 

Whiplash

Whiplash is a common injury for people involved in car collisions. When a car is struck from behind or collides with another object, it causes the neck to snap back and forth violently. This causes the muscles and ligaments to overextend, leading to strains and/or tears. This is referred to as soft tissue damage, and can cause stiffness and soreness. Whiplash can also cause structural damage such as misaligned vertebrae, herniated, bulging or ruptured discs, or nerve damage due to the overextension from the violent movement.

Chiropractic care can help with both types of injuries. Adjustments and alignments can be performed specifically for those who have been in car accidents and suffered from whiplash. The pressure on the discs and nerves is released when the spine is returned to its proper alignment. Chiropractic massage can be used to help relieve the pain and discomfort from soft tissue injuries. If you have been in a car accident, schedule an appointment with us before relying on pain medications and surgery.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MANUAL THERAPY IN THE RECOVERY PROCESS

Manual Therapy can be crucial to your healing process after an accident or if you have developed scar tissue from an accident.


Manual Therapy Increases strength, flexibility, range of motion, aids in reducing soft tissue inflammation through the use of joint mobilization and soft tissue therapy techniques which help to encourage blood flow to the area and can reduce pain from inflammation.
