Knox County Chiropractor Helps Relieve Auto Accident Injury Pain Safely Without Surgery

By April Madrid


When suffering the after effects of a car accident, many victims find relief through the therapy provided by a Knox County chiropractic doctor. Vehicular accidents can cause injuries to one's muscles, joints, nerves and ligaments. The neurological and musculoskeletal injuries often cause pain in one's shoulder, back or neck.

There is a common myth that the injuries sustained in a vehicular accident are in proportion to the damage to one's car. In other words, minor accidents do not cause serious injuries. However, scientific studies show the opposite to be true. If the metal does not crumple on a vehicle in the crash, the more of the forces are transferred to the passenger's body. As a result, one may encounter serious injuries such as whiplash that can lead to long term pain without proper therapy.

The pain from injuries often becomes more intense in a few days. However, certain injuries may not become apparent for weeks after the accident. Victims often take a break immediately after the crash. Once they resume normal activities, they notice new aches and pains that were not there before the crash but affect the quality of life.

Chiropractors consider many factors in developing a plan for therapy. They do not rely on pills or surgery. They use noninvasive therapy to restore balance to a patient's body, allowing natural healing to take place.

While the therapy is most beneficial in the months following the accident, victims that were involved in crashes years ago can also benefit. Restoring balance to the spine allows the body to function correctly. Correcting old injuries can often help to relieve pain and headaches.

Chiropractors approach therapy from a holistic viewpoint. The spine is essential in protecting the central nervous system. Car crashes, along with other accidents may damage many parts of a patient's body. When these imbalances are corrected the nerves heal correctly, allowing the body to function correctly and the pain one experiences after the crash to subside.
