Care after an Auto Accident
Car Accidents + Chiropractic
Car accidents, also known as motor vehicle accidents (MVAs), are a prevalent trigger for various musculoskeletal complaints and issues. Even a minor fender bender occurring at just 5 mph can cause the small muscles, ligaments, and tendons in the body to sprain or strain, resulting in discomfort. If these injuries are not treated promptly, especially within a timely fashion, they can lead to long-term complications that may significantly impact your quality of life for years to come. Did you know that having personal injury protection (PIP) included in your car insurance policy provides you with a minimum of $10,000 to cover the necessary care following an accident? This means you can avoid out-of-pocket costs entirely!
Car accidents can cause:
Whiplash
Concussion
Nerve compression causing pain, numbness, tingling, and even loss of muscle strength
Post-traumatic arthritis
Muscle, ligament, or tendon tears (sprains or strains)
And more!
