If you’ve recently been in an auto accident, you may be dealing with pain and injuries that aren’t always visible right away. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), car accidents are a leading cause of injury in the United States, often resulting in musculoskeletal issues such as whiplash, back pain, and joint discomfort. Chiropractic care is an effective treatment option to help you recover and restore your body’s mobility.
If you live in the Houston or Spring, Texas area and are struggling with pain from an auto accident, Drs. Billy Cheong, Kesia Broome, Elias Madrid, Tabotha Green, Francis Jopanda and the experienced team at Elite Spine and Health Center are here to help.
Common Injuries After Auto Accidents
Auto accidents can cause a variety of injuries, some of which may not show symptoms immediately. It’s essential to seek care early to avoid complications. Some common injuries include:
- Whiplash (neck strain from sudden impact)
- Back pain and herniated discs
- Shoulder and joint pain
- Headaches or migraines
- Soft tissue injuries and muscle strains
Without proper treatment, these injuries can lead to chronic pain and reduced mobility over time.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
Chiropractic care focuses on aligning the musculoskeletal system to alleviate pain and improve mobility. After an auto accident, here’s how chiropractic care can aid recovery:
- Whiplash Treatment: Restores neck mobility and relieves pain.
- Spinal Adjustments: Correct misalignments in the spine caused by impact.
- Pain Relief: Reduces muscle tension and nerve compression.
- Improved Mobility: Restores movement in injured areas.
Chiropractic care can also help prevent long-term complications by addressing injuries early. Research shows that spinal adjustments and rehabilitation can effectively manage pain and promote recovery.
