SHOULD I SEE A CHIROPRACTOR AFTER AN ACCIDENT?
Short answer, ABSOLUTELY but here is why...
A chiropractor can help you in many ways and help you avoid pain, lifelong discomfort and allow you normality that allows you to live your life comfortably again.
Why is a chiropractor so beneficial? One major reason is that unlike a lot of traditional medical treatments after a car accident, a chiropractor offers solutions that are non-invasive and also drug-free.
You have suffered enough pain after a car accident and if there is a way to avoid invasive and painful treatments post-accident, then they should be explored.
A chiropractor can also help you to diagnose your pain and injuries, even when you do not feel pain right away.
Sometimes after an accident, you will feel 100% fine. This does not mean that you are not injured, but rather, it means that due to the adrenaline hormone flowing through your body, you are numb to the pain.
A chiropractor can help to diagnose the inside injuries to your muscles, tendons, ligaments, and even skeletal system that maybe you do not feel as of yet, and also let you know if you can benefit from the treatment of a chiropractor.
The chiropractor can give you a physical exam, order x-rays, review your medical history and create a total plan that works for you.
A chiropractor has many other benefits and therefore many reasons that you should see one after an accident including:
♦ Creating a treatment plan that reduce inflammation
♦ Helps to reduce pain in the here and now, and also chronic pain in the future
♦ Ensures you can avoid relying on a drug regimen to deal with pain
♦ Reduces your chances of needing more invasive surgical treatments
Overall, the answer is YES, you should see a chiropractor after a car accident, especially if you feel pain or have injuries in your neck, back, shoulders or head.
