Try Chiropractic Care.
The best way to learn about chiropractic is to try it.
Many people have been involved in a car accident some time ago and never received treatment. Often when they come to see me months later they are surprised to learn that their pain is most likely related to the trauma from their accident.
It is very important to get checked out by a chiropractor after any falls or accidents. Pain is not a good indicator that something is wrong. The body uses pain as a warning signal but like any warning device the body will find someway to cope or it will send you to the emergency room.
Most people think if they can walk and take pain killers then the problem will eventually go away. This is dangerous. The body will adapt by turning off information to certain areas and making other areas adapt to do their job. This is how we form trigger points that eventually can turn into fibromyalgia.
The body will also add bone to weakened joints causing osteoarthritis. Our posture also changes which eventually leads to more pain.
Being in an accident even if it is minor is like driving on unbalanced tires. I didn’t know I was supposed to rotate my tires every 6000 miles and recently I had to replace them sooner than normal.
You can’t replace your spine.
