If you were involved in an auto accident and suffered injuries, we can help you.
Chiropractic treatment can help alleviate pain and inflammation and can even help you recover faster. These effective, gentle, safe, and natural treatments focus on helping the body to heal itself. Scar tissue can develop on the muscles inside the body after a car accident injury occurs. This tissue will cause the victim to feel uncomfortable and stiff. Dr. Poe, with appropriate treatment, can specifically target the damaged areas, breaking up the scar tissue faster than just letting it heal on its own.
The most common injury sustained in a Motor Vehicle Accident is Whiplash. When an accident occurs, and causes whiplash, this action stretches the tendons, ligaments, and muscles around the sensitive neck area, and you'll experience the symptoms of whiplash. Whiplash symptoms can vary from none to severe, and might show up right after the injury or after several hours or days.
These are the most common symptoms of whiplash:
- Neck pain
- Headaches
- Blurry Vision
- Neck stiffness
- Shoulder pain
- Tinnitus, ringing in the ear
- Dizziness
- Pain in your arm or hand
- Numbness in your arm or hand
- Irritability
- Sleeplessness
- Tiredness
- Trouble turning your head
Chiropractic care is a particularly effective treatment for whiplash because it is able to reduce inflammation surrounding the affected muscles and ligaments. Additionally, it restores neck and shoulder mobility.
