Auto Accidents

A car accident should never be taken lightly. A variety of injuries (to any part of the body) can result from being involved in an automobile accident depending on the details of the crash and severity of the impact. Even low speed collisions, can have a severe impact on one’s health and well-being. Some of the most common physical injuries sustained in automobile accidents include those to the:

  • Head and brain
  • Neck
  • Back
  • Spinal cord
  • Limbs
  • Internal organs

When a person is involved in an automobile accident, upon impact their body undergoes rapid changes in motion and energy, which can cause the spine to be thrown out of alignment. Spinal misalignment is characterized by vertebrae that lose their natural positioning with adjacent vertebrae. Displacement of vertebrae can put pressure on the nerves and nerve roots where they join the spinal cord, leading to severe pain and discomfort. For many patients, the onset of pain is several hours to days, sometimes weeks, later. If you’ve been in an automobile accident, it is imperative to have your spine examined by a Chiropractor.

Chiropractic Treatment for Automobile Accident Patients

Often times when a person has pain, whether from an automobile accident or other activity, they reach for the pain relievers. What many do not realize is that pain relievers do not address the root cause of pain,  rather they disrupt nerve pathways and mask the pain, providing only temporary relief. Chiropractic, however, offers a real solution to healing and pain relief through precise manipulations of the spine. With regular chiropractic treatment and service we are able to heal a variety of injuries and ailments.
