Personal Injury Chiropractor Near Me

What is a Personal Injury Chiropractor?

A personal injury chiropractor can be described as a healthcare professional who specializes in treating trauma-related injuries, such as repetitive stress or car accidents. Our chiropractors are able to diagnose, treat, and prevent imbalances throughout the body, including those in the spine and joints. Some people find that seeing a chiropractor can help them with their pain without the need to take medication or undergo expensive surgery.

DIFFERENT TYPES of TREATMENTS

Each person's needs will dictate the type of chiropractic adjustment that is used. Common adjustments can be used to treat injuries from personal accidents.

MANUAL ADJUSTMENTS

This adjustment uses force to mobilize joints. It also restores proper alignment to the muscles and musculoskeletal systems. These adjustments can be done quickly and require more force that other methods. Manual adjustments are often made to the spine, neck, or jaw.

CRANIAL SACRAL THEAPY

Manual adjustments are similar, but this therapy is gentler and focuses on the head. This therapy uses gentle manipulation, rather than deep thrusts, to locate misalignments in the pelvis and cranium to correct them.

EXTREMITY ADJUSTMENTS

These adjustments can be made to the arms, legs and wrists as well as the ankles, ankles and feet. These mobilization techniques help to restore normal joint movement to the extremities.

INSTRUMENT-ASSISTED AJUSTMENTS

Special instruments are used to adjust difficult-to-reach parts of the body such as the sacroiliac joint. These instruments can focus pressure precisely at angles that are difficult to manipulate manually.

ACTIVATOR METHODS

The Activator Method(tm), a method of instrument-assisted chiropractic adjustment, uses a low-force instrument to deliver a rapid, controlled impulse into the dysfunctional spinal segments. This allows for precise targeting and avoids tissue trauma.
