Reasons to See a Chiropractor After a Car Accident

May 20, 2022 By Dr. Sara Edwards, D.C.

Car accidents are extremely common and so too are injuries that occur as a result of being involved in a road traffic collision.

Estimates suggest that as many as 3 million people in the U.S are injured in car accidents every year.

On a daily average, there are at least 205 accidents, 82 injuries in Minnesota

Fortunately, many of the injuries sustained are fairly minor. Although you may be left with some ongoing issues, your health and wellbeing are largely left intact.

Due to adrenaline, people often initially feel fine after a car accident. However, anywhere between one and 30 days, sometimes more, pain and aches from a variety of issues can occur.

Chiropractic care is a well-documented method for pain management and treatment.

Whether or not pain is present, it’s a good idea to seek treatment from a chiropractor within three to seven days of an accident.

The sooner the better.

While a negligent act leading to a minor accident might not warrant a trip to the emergency room, it can lead to unseen injuries.

Pain and injuries can surface within hours, days or, in some cases, months after an accident.

Failing to seek care can result in a number of chronic conditions that may take months or years to fully heal.

Without a quick and accurate assessment of your potential injuries, you could end up paying thousands of dollars in medical treatment.

You might find out at your appointment with a chiropractor that you have no injuries that require treatment. If so, you can at least stop worrying about residual symptoms of an accident that could show up suddenly at a bad time, such as in the middle of a workday. Having a professional carefully examine your neck and back can give you some peace of mind, whether any issues are found or not.

If you want to reap these benefits of being seen by a chiropractor soon after the accident, you should schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Sara Edwards..

This will allow us to take a look at your specific circumstances to determine if you need treatment at our office after a car accident. We invite you to call us to get started on your treatment plan!
