Our office is available for auto accident injury and personal injuries treatments.
What Is Personal Injury?
Personal injury is a legal reference to any injury to a person rather than their property. Personal injury law seeks to compensate the victim for the offender’s actions that have caused harm to the injured person.
Auto accidents are known to cause a variety of injuries that may not be readily apparent directly after the collision. These injuries can include sprains and strains, herniated discs and whiplash. The good news is that we provide auto accident injury treatments for individuals who have recently or not so recently been in a collision.
Common Injuries Experienced in a Car Accident
When you are in a car accident, your body ricochets between the seatbelt and seat, which can cause whiplash. If you have your hands on the steering wheel or stick-shift, your wrist may experience sprains and strains, and your knees may impact the dash, causing bruising and injuries to the knees. You may also experience shoulder injuries from being held back by the seatbelt and herniated discs in your lower back and neck.
- Whiplash
- Shoulder injuries
- Herniated discs
- Knee trauma
- Muscle strain
- Neuropathy
- Ligament damage
- And more
We understand that a car accident is traumatic, and we want to help you heal as fast as possible to put the incident behind you.
Signs You Have a Car Accident Injury that Needs Chiropractic Treatment
Depending on your auto accident injury, you may experience a wide range of symptoms. If you have whiplash, you may experience an increase in headaches, a stiff or sore neck and sensitivity to light and sound. In severe instances, you may also experience pain and soreness in your upper back and tingling down one or both arms.
If you have a joint injury in your knees, wrists or shoulders, you may experience pain, inflammation, and loss of range of motion. If you experience a herniated disc during your accident, you may have pain in the area of the disc herniation as well as pain that radiates into the legs.
Auto Accident Injury Treatments
Our auto accident injury team provides treatments for whiplash, shoulder, wrist and knee injuries and herniated discs that are the result of a car accident.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP).We offer PRP therapy that uses your own blood to enhance the healing process. We extract a small amount of your blood and synthesize an injection with a high amount of your platelets. Platelets have healing proteins and growth factors. So, when injecting a higher concentration of platelets into the area affected by an accident, your body receives an added supply of healing agents to the affected area.
Spinal Manipulation & Adjustment
Chiropractic adjustments and our chiropractic care modalities are used to treat joint misalignments in the back, neck and extremity joints. These treatments help decrease healing times, reduce inflammation and improve the range of motion of the joints.
Electrical Stimulation Therapy
Targeted Electrical Stimulation therapy is used to help relax muscles and tendons in order to help reduce pain and inflammation while improving localized circulation. Electrical Stimulation therapy can be utilized before or after chiropractic adjustments.
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy is used for treating herniated discs in the back and neck and unpinching compressed nerves. The treatment involves applying a targeted force to the specific area of the back or neck with the disc herniation in order to increase the spaces between the vertebrae. This gives the disc room to retract and heal.
And many more Advance Therapies that will work to heal the body as quick as possible and get you back to the life you deserve!
