Manhattan Chiropractor Helps Alleviates Pain From Auto Accidents

By Kurt Saniel


Significant, ongoing pain is not something a healthy person normally has to tolerate. But, if involved in an automobile crash, that can change. Numerous injuries from broken arms to misaligned vertebrae can occur. The accident victim can find relief in one of the chiropractic offices Manhattan NY has available.

It is obvious that running off the side of the road and rolling over, or crashing into a tree, can result in disabling injuries. That is not the only accident that can cause ongoing pain, however. A rear end collision, even when it happens at a low rate of speed, can cause a very painful injury called whiplash.

While a seat belt holds your body in place your head can be jerked rapidly in one direction and then another. The result is similar to what occurs in shaken baby syndrome. You may be unable to turn your head in either direction or look up at the sky without significant pain. The pain may not occur immediately. It may be hours or days later that the pain begins.

A high percentage of these victims turn to a chiropractor for pain relief. They prefer this type of care because it is medication free and non-invasive. During the first office appointment the chiropractor will question you about the accident and the severity of the pain you feel. X-rays will usually be required along with the physical exam.

The spinal column is composed of small bones called vertebrae. If these are moved out of the correct position they may press against spinal nerves. This can cause moderate to excruciating pain. Chiropractic adjustments are used to ease these bones back into place thereby alleviating both pressure and pain. Prior to this process a full evaluation of your condition is completed.

When the pressure impacting the spinal nerves is reduced, the pain will also be reduced. As you progress, the hurt is alleviated. In addition to the adjustments, massage may be used to loosen and relax the tense muscles. Soon you may be looking forward to a return to work and other activities.
