Unfortunately car accidents happen every day.  People typically don’t know what to do or where to go.  Well I’m here to help you out as much as possible.  If you’ve been in a car accident and you are in pain, first seek medical attention.  The next thing you must do after seeking medical attention is to see a chiropractic physician!  Pain medication and muscle relaxers aren’t enough to actually heal damaged joints and or soft tissue after a motor vehicle collision.  Many people don’t know that after car accidents they can possibly have serious injuries to the ligaments, tendons, muscle, discs, nerve roots, or extremities.  Without the proper treatment, these tissues that are injured from a car accident will not heal properly.  Even worse these tissues may not heal at all.  Chiropractic care can help reduce inflammation of joints and soft tissue.  Chiropractic can also increase range of motion in joints that are restricted due to soft tissue and joint trauma, thus improving the injured victims quality of life.  Proper diagnosis of injuries is very key to helping you get better and living a normal life again as well as determining what the short and long term prognosis is of your body.  Another case for getting chiropractic care is figuring out the extent of injuries sustained in a motor vehicle collision.  By finding the cause of your pain and dysfunction, your chiropractic can take the necessary steps to insure you get the care you deserve.  These steps are paramount to recovery and living a pain free life.
