Auto Accident Treatment at Spinal Solutions Restorative Chiropractic & Stretch Therapy
What Happens to Your Body in a Car Accident?
Did you know you can be injured even in a low-speed car accident? When you consider the weight of the vehicles, even going as slow as five miles per hour, your body absorbs tremendous force from the impact. MRIs show significant whiplash injury in slow speed fender benders, in addition to higher speed collisions.
It’s important to get your spine and extremities checked after any trauma, especially a car accident. Whiplash and strain/sprain injuries are extremely common, and if these injuries don’t heal properly, layering of scar tissue eventually leads to lack of range of motion and significant issues later on, including chronic pain, early degeneration of the spine and other types of dysfunction. Unfortunately, when you’ve been in a car accident, you can’t just “walk it off.”
Your chiropractic care and physical therapy depends on the type and severity of your injuries, and usually includes some manual therapies and therapeutic exercises in addition to your adjustments.
