How A SE Portland Chiropractor Helps Car Accident Pain

By Lonnie Hahne


There is no difference for someone who has been in a car accident between a minor case and a major accident. An injury is an injury and even a seemingly small one has the potential to become a serious, life-altering injury very quickly. A good SE Portland Chiropractor will acknowledge this and they will realize even the smallest injury can be devastating to the victim as well as their family. Their team of skilled and experienced professionals can help you find relief from all of your injuries. Auto accidents can happen anytime, anywhere, to anyone.

Here are some of the most common auto related injuries that are seen in most chiropractor offices:

- Catastrophic injuries - Car accidents that have a serious impact on the well-being and health of those who where involved. Accidents such as these can lead to lengthy stays in the hospital, lasting physical harm and side effects that are life-altering.

- Brain injuries - when auto accidents occur, injuries of this type are typically caused by impact trauma or insufficient safety precautions such as when no seat belt is being worn. Slamming the head into the windshield or dash are very common examples of events like these.

- Spinal Cord Injury- these injuries are often classified as impact injuries and in auto accidents they often are the result of the spine compressing due to impact or from sudden movements as what is seen with whip-lash.

- Chronic Pain - although some injuries appear to have healed or limited overall harm may have been done, the related pain can be lasting and other, secondary issues may develop

If you or a loved one has suffered from injuries as the result of an auto accident you need to be seen by a chiropractor as soon as possible. Head, neck, and spin injuries sometimes are hard to detect at first but the damage has been done and if they are left unresolved they can worsen and lead to much more severe problems down the road. Don't take a chance with your health!
