Auto Accident & On The Job Injury Chiropractic
at Handly Chiropractic Clinic
Your immediate medical evaluation at the the scene or ER looks for injuries that need immediate attention & provide that care or refer you to a medical specialist. It is very common to tell you if your symptoms persist see your MD but rarely a chiropractor. It may surprise you most medical doctors have either no idea or a wrong understanding of what a DC doctor of chiropractic does.
If you do not undergo a chiropractic assessment after any traumatic incident you risk missing subtle spinal injuries affecting the functional integrity of all the components of your skull, spinal column & nervous system. If not corrected you may heal misaligned & not function properly for the rest of your life.
After any traumatic event symptoms can take sometimes a week or longer to appear. You might feel fine at first, thanks to an adrenaline rush, but ignoring problems now can lead to chronic issues.
You may experience headache, neck, mid, lower back, hip, shoulder pains, as well as visual, mental confusion & memory problems from brain injury.
Any type of physical trauma, whether on the job or a car accident, may cause serious long term damage to your bones, discs, joints, muscles, ligaments & nervous system.
Your ligaments hold your spinal bones & joints together. When they become damaged it is vital to seek chiropractic care, to maintain the integrity & function of the spine minimizing scar damage & joint degeneration.
