Auto Injury
Have you been involved in an AUTO ACCIDENT?
You may need Chiropractic Care!
If you have been in an auto accident recently, there are some important decisions you have to make, and if I were you, I'd make these decisions very carefully. It is important to get checked out by the doctor first prior going to an attorney. That way the findings from your exam will allow you the information you need in order to decide if an attorney is necessary. If necessary, we can refer you to a reputable and qualified attorney.
After an automobile accident you need a Chiropractic Doctor who focuses in the treatment and diagnosis of auto accident injuries. Usually hospitals will check vital signs, make sure there are no life-threatening conditions and release the patient with pain relief medication. They normally do not treat the underlying improper musculoskeletal biomechanics that can and often do lead to future pain. If you are still having problems, you should get a second opinion.
If your Medical Doctor has given you pills, you must understand that pills may not correct structural or soft tissue damage. There are special therapies designed for that, and our we offer these modalities at our office.
Even a minor automobile accident can have major effects on your health! When one automobile is struck by another, thousands of pounds of force are exerted on the human spine. Whiplash occurs when the head and neck are thrown back and forth very quickly. The painful result is injury to the ligaments, soft tissue, and discs of the neck and spine. Whiplash also causes impingement, stretching, or irritation of the nerves and the spinal cord.
Whiplash can also cause headaches, muscle spasm, muscle tension, numbness, pins and needles in the face, chest, arms or hands, anxiety, neck pain, back pain, ear ringing, dizziness, hearing loss and/or blurred vision.
