Chiropractic Care for Accidents

After an auto accident, your car is not the only thing that suffers damage. Your body can suffer from many different injuries. Most people brush off slight personal injuries they might suffer following an accident. What they don't know is that this can cause chronic issues in the future.

At Canyon View Chiropractic in Salt Lake City, UT, we offer chiropractic care for injuries sustained in an accident.

Types of Injuries 

Auto, sports, and workplace accidents may lead to the following personal injuries:

• Back, neck, and shoulder injuries
• Broken bones
• Whiplash
• Pinched nerves
• Subluxation
• Sciatica
• Soft tissue injuries

When Should I Visit a Chiropractor?

The answer depends solely on how severe your symptoms are after the accident. Ideally, the first step you should take after an accident is to visit our chiropractor. Even when injuries aren't physically visible, it's still wise to get treatment. Some accident-related injuries, like whiplash, might show up days or even weeks after an accident. But when you visit our chiropractor, he can pinpoint both visible and hidden injuries.

Delaying treatment after an accident can lead to longer-lasting pain and even permanent injuries. We can relieve your pain and prevent your condition from worsening.

How We Can Help

The main goal of chiropractic care is to allow your body to heal naturally. Unlike surgeries and drugs, our specialists treat your pain's root cause to offer a lasting solution instead of masking symptoms.

One of the most common methods that we use to treat injuries is spinal adjustments. Realigning your spine will relieve nerve pressure, alleviating pain. Other methods we may use include massage therapies, which improve blood circulation and reduce muscle tension, or physical exercises, which may be recommended to speed up recovery and improve your full range of motion.
