Auto Accident Injury Treatment

A car accident can create a variety of problems for the people involved. Far above any damage caused to property, physical injuries sustained as a result of the accident should take precedence over anything else. Unfortunately, many people walk away from what they view as minor accidents and don’t get checked for any underlying issues. The professional team here at Lakewood Ranch Chiropractic urges anyone who has been in an accident to make sure they are seen by a healthcare practitioner even if they feel okay.

Auto Accident Injury Treatment


Sneaky Symptoms

One of the things people need to be aware of is, many of the symptoms associated with automobile accidents do not appear at the time of the accident. It can take 24 to 48 hours before the injuries sustained from a vehicle crash appear. Generally, neck pain, back pain and the pain associated with whiplash appear the morning after an accident. People may experience a slight headache at the time of their injury; they may also feel lightheaded or dizzy.

Your Spine Is the Key to Pain Relief

The average person doesn't think much about the health or the functionality of their spine until they have been injured, but they should. Spinal health is extremely important to the overall health of the body. This is why our Lakewood Ranch Chiropractor stresses the importance of people seeking the services of a health professional following an accident. Here is something to consider, the spine can shift out of alignment when people engage in the normal activities of daily life, so it is far from unreasonable to think that the spine is shifted greatly when the body is jolted or met with unexpected force. Vertebral Subluxations interfere with the signals the brain sends through the body. This can cause a whole host of medical complications. These misalignments are responsible for joint congestion and dysfunction, which causes nerve irritation and muscle sensitivity. These issues are compounded by swelling.

How We Help

Here in our office, our number one priority is to provide our patient's pain relief. After conducting a thorough evaluation, our doctor will develop a plan of treatment to address the findings of the exam. One of the first things addressed in all treatment plans is swelling. Edema is the number one enemy of pain relief, this is why all patients receive an adjustment their first day for treatment. Realignment of the spinal column relieves pressure off of the affected discs and joints and allows the body to begin the process of healing. This process helps reduce swelling. Some treatment modalities used in our clinic include electromagnetic therapy, cryotherapy, heat therapy, cold laser therapy, and ultrasound therapy.
