What Is an Auto Accident Injury?

An auto accident injury is any injury that occurs as a result of a car crash. Symptoms of these injuries can take hours, days, even months to appear. These injuries can range from mild, to moderate, to severe, and might even require medical intervention.

Some of the most common auto accident injuries include:

  • Whiplash
  • Concussions
  • Muscle strain
  • Muscle sprain
  • Shoulder injuries
  • Rotator cuff injuries
  • Neck pain
  • Back pain
  • Wrist sprains
  • Internal injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Dislocated bones

All of these injuries can be incredibly difficult to recover from, so it's best to get the help of a chiropractor as soon as possible.

How a Chiropractor Can Help

Our chiropractor will be able to determine the extent of your injuries following a car accident. We will conduct a physical exam in addition to test such as x-rays, to get an inside look into your musculoskeletal system. Our chiropractor will get to the root cause of your pain and prescribe the best chiropractic treatment.

Treatment includes:

  • massages to increase circulation and promote healing
  • Strengthening exercises to strengthen injured muscles while promoting mobility and flexibility
  • Spinal decompression to help alleviate pain from herniated discs after an accident
  • Spinal adjustments to realign the spine, which can become misaligned after an accident
  • Trigger point therapy to target specific soft tissue injuries

Rather than masking your pain with prescription medication or performing invasive surgery, our chiropractor will identify and treat the root cause of your pain and immobility. Treatment recommendations will depend on the type, location, and severity of your injuries.
