Chiropractic care for accidents and injuries

Chiropractic care for accidents and injuries

Chiropractic care for accidents and injuries, simple injuries from daily activities are common and can be caused by any number of events from a minor MVA to a twisted ankle on the golf course. Too often patients may leave the Emergency Room being told they are fine but weeks later the problem persists and eventually they are told they have to live with it. They watch the quality of their life go down hill and frequently they are on pain killers long term. Eventually have to turn to surgery as a perceived last resort. In these types of cases Chiropractic care for accidents and injuries can often prove to be an effective treatment strategy. Unlike other professional disciplines the chiropractic profession focuses on subtle misalignments in the spine or joints called subluxations. This type of injury does not always show up on an X-ray but are often the result of minor trauma. Their presence can result in compromised joint mobility in the spine or an extremity such as a knee or shoulder. This can result in pain, swelling and decreased range of motion in the problem area. This is especially true of injuries to the neck area which can result in whiplash and different headache patterns which are difficult to resolve. This type of physical stress can interfere with the body’s nerves creating potential for more serious problems to develop in the muscles and organs.  By using a bio-mechanic analysis of the body’s responses to the trauma Chiropractic care for accidents and injuries can often be effective and remove these subluxations and restoring the nervous system to it’s proper function.  Chiropractic Health and Acupuncture has been serving Webster and the greater Rochester NY area since 1983.
