Auto Accidents
Why You Should See a Chiropractor After a Car Accident
Many injuries from auto accidents don’t appear right away. Adrenaline masks pain, and inflammation takes time to develop. Common symptoms like stiffness, headaches, dizziness, and neck or back pain may not show up for days or even weeks.
Whiplash & Neck Injuries – Caused by the rapid back-and-forth movement of the head.
Back & Spine Misalignment – Even low-speed collisions can shift vertebrae out of place.
Soft Tissue Injuries – Muscle, ligament, and tendon strains can cause lingering pain.
Concussion & Dizziness – Symptoms of a minor traumatic brain injury often go unnoticed.
The sooner you seek treatment, the better your recovery will be.
