Hello.  Let's journey together!

Auto Accident: Time for Chiropractic!

Did you know that nearly 3 million Americans are injured in car accidents each year? Of those hurt in a serious crash, more than half end up facing lifelong injuries. It’s true that even smaller incidents, such as fender bender taps, can cause long-term pain and suffering throughout the body as well.
Guest post by Ashley Nave of The Advocates Injury Attorneys
One of the biggest problems with being in a smaller crash is that even acute injuries go unnoticed within the first few weeks, months or even years from impact. Accident victims may often feel as if they’ve walked away from their crash unharmed, only to later experience a gnawing pain in the back, neck or spine. Injuries like these can be persistent and refuse to get better without proper care.

The best option to help treat persisting aches and pains after an accident is to see a chiropractic doctor from our clinic. Here at McCann Family Chiropractic, we focus on helping all of our clients achieve whole body wellness. Dr. Matt works with accident victims regularly to help realign their spines, relieve chronic pain and make sure they get the recovery they deserve. 

Why Do Accidents Affect the Neck and Back

While car companies have made huge strides toward implementing modern safety features, with or without a seatbelt, the head, neck and back are still heavily impacted by accidents. Unfortunately, there are little to no accident safety devices in a car that actually stop the neck or back from plunging back and forth during impact. Even seatbelts and airbags can jerk the vertebrae out of place and force the spine into abnormal positions.

If you’re experiencing neck or back pain after your collision, there’s a good chance that you’ve experienced something called whiplash. Whiplash is the rapid back-and-forth motion of the neck that occurs when a vehicle suddenly stops or collides with another object. This quick jerking motion is often unavoidable and can cause serious damage to the neck and spine. Which is why it’s crucial to see a chiropractic doctor immediately after your crash.

Common Types of Car Accident Back Injuries ​

Back and neck injuries can be some of the most debilitating types of injuries the body experiences. If you’re having any neck or back pain since your accident, consider seeing a chiropractor for the following injuries:
  • Back strains
  • Back sprains
  • Herniated discs
  • Compression fractures
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Torn muscles and tendons​
​​If you’re suffering from any of the injuries above, you should schedule an appointment with McCann Family Chiropractic as soon as possible. Chiropractic care can effectively change your life and offer the pain relief you’ve been looking for. ​

What Can Chiropractic Treatment Do for Me?

Regular visits to a chiropractor can greatly reduce the amount of physical and emotional pain you’ve been suffering from your crash.

  1. Your pain isn’t always obvious at first
  2. We will help you restore your range of motion
  3. We will help reduce inflammation
  4. We will focus on relieving overall pain on the body
  5. We do not prescribe addictive pain medication
  6. We will not perform invasive surgical procedures
  7. Chiropractic treatment is an all-natural pain reliever!
