Auto Accidents

We often see people for the first time after they have had an automobile accident. It is unfortunate that they have been injured, but fortunate that they have come for chiropractic treatment of their injuries. Nothing I have seen, except potentially acupuncture with massage, is as effective in alleviating pain and promoting healing.

Standard medical treatment is painkillers, muscle relaxants, rest and potentially ice. Later, physical therapy is sometimes employed. Chiropractors, on the other hand, will generally adjust someone right away, even after a fairly severe whiplash. This is done to promote mobility in the neck thus decreasing the body’s natural “splinting” reaction.

If you have been in an auto accident, call (925) 947-0188 to schedule an appointment.
