Union City, GA Chiropractor

What to Expect During Your First Visit

Gentle, Safe and Always Natural

Chiropractic pain management at our Riverdale office is well suited for victims of a car accident.

Our approach to care is gentle, safe and always all-natural.

Our goal is to help restore your body to its natural flexibility and mobility while alleviating soreness, stiffness, and aches and pains.

The results our patients see:

• Drastic reduction in acute pain symptoms and inflammation

  • Increased back and neck ranges of motion

  • Better sleep throughout the night

  • Elevated mental clarity

We achieve these results with spinal decompression therapy that uses intermittent spinal traction to take stress off injured vertebral joints while hydrating the discs. Chiropractic Adjustments  help facilitate proper motion in the joints. 

Our Riverdale clinic is specifically designed to treat victims of car accident. Do not hesitate to call us today to see how we can best assist with your recovery.

Common Soft Tissue Injuries and Symptoms

The most common delayed injuries after being involved in a car crash are soft tissue injuries. One of the most common soft tissue injuries is Whiplash.

Whiplash is commonly described as pain in the neck, but can affect any neural network, including the extremities and down the spine.

Other common symptoms of whiplash:

• Numbness or weakness in afflicted areas

• Slowed reflexes

• Muscle spasms

• Stiffness in arms and shoulders

• Headaches 

• Difficulty moving or reduced mobility

With these symptoms your quality of life and every day tasks could become very difficult. The chiropractic care can quickly 

relieve the tension and pain, allowing  you to return to a normal life style.

All treatments given by our chiropractic doctors are natural and safe and preferred by injury victims over costly surgeries and addicting medications that only mask the pain.

Riverdale Chiropractic Exam

In preparation for your Free Chiropractic Consultation, you will be asked to complete forms that provide detailed background information about your medical history, condition, and symptoms you are currently experiencing.

Some typical questions include:

• Where is your pain located? 

• When and how did the pain begin?

• Did the pain start because of an injury? 

• What activities or circumstances make it better or worse?

• Describe your pain

Once we know more about your medical history, the Chiropractor will conduct a precise exam, including comprehensive tests such as pulse,  blood pressure, reflexes, and respiration, as well as specific orthopedic and neurological tests to assess:

• Muscle tone

• Neurological integrity

• Postural stability

• Muscle strength

• Range of motion of the affected part

The Benefits of Diagnostic Studies

Based on the results of your exam and previous medical history, diagnostic studies will be helpful when identifying structural abnormalities to accurately diagnose your condition.

• • Short-term goals will include relieving pain and restoring normal joint function and muscle balance.

  • Long-term goals are about reacquiring functional independence and tolerance to normal activities of daily living.
