Back Injury in Parker CO

A car accident causes stress and trauma to the entire body. While a seat belt can stop the driver and passengers from hitting the dashboard or windshield, the head and neck are not held stationary. Car accident victims are thrown violently forward into their seat belt and/or an airbag, often resulting in back injuries in Parker CO.

Because of the current seat belt design, after the head and neck move rapidly forward, a person is then ricocheted backward against the car seat and headrest. This sudden, forceful movement causes an unhealthy stretching of the soft tissues of the neck as well as misalignment in the vertebrae of the spine. This condition is also known as whiplash.

Even Seemingly Minor Accidents in Parker CO Can Cause Whiplash

While symptoms may not be felt initially, after a few days, the trauma will be felt as neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and migraines. Pain can also radiate to other areas of the body. Even if the accident occurred at a low speed or seemed to be just a fender-bender, trauma to the tissue has probably occurred.

Fortunately, there is relief. Advanced Chiropractic Clinic brings experienced auto accident injury treatment to alleviate the symptoms of whiplash and other injuries. The key is to schedule an appointment as soon as possible after the accident.

Chiropractic Adjustments for Cervical Misalignments

Whiplash from a car accident often causes misalignment of cervical (neck) vertebrae. In the worst cases, neck curvature may be profoundly altered. This kind of misalignment can lead to severe loss of range of motion as well as chronic pain. Chiropractic adjustments use smooth force to safely correct vertebrae misalignments and restore proper neck movement and functioning.

Physical Therapy for Healing

Physical therapy involves key exercises to assist the injured muscles in regaining flexibility and strength. Whiplash involves injuries to the ligaments and muscles of the neck, which can affect the upper back and shoulders as well. Customized stretches and exercises help to rebuild strength and flexibility as the affected tissues heal.
