What Are Common Car Accident Injuries?

  • Whiplash: whiplash is the most common injury sustained during a car accident. The sudden stopping of forwarding motion causes your head to ‘whip’ forward and then backward and this jolt can tear the tiny muscles in the neck resulting in major pain. We offer whiplash treatment that doesn’t involve painful surgical procedures or prescription medication. Our whiplash treatment uses the power of chiropractic care to heal you holistically.
  • Disc Herniations: another common condition we see are disc herniations in the spine. These are small bulges that put pressure on the nerves in the spine and cause chronic and acute pain if left untreated.
  • Sciatica: numbness and tingling in related nerve endings can be a side effect of disc issues from car accidents. Chiropractor treatments for auto accident recovery quickly and gently realign the spine to relieve this pressure and pain.
