Can a Chiropractor Help You With Personal Injuries?

After an auto accident or other personal injury, you might experience injuries like whiplash, lower back pain, sciatica, leg pain, and other issues. Chiropractors can help you with many of these issues, in addition to headaches, insomnia, and numbness. Chiropractic care after an auto accident may include physical therapy in addition to stretching and adjustments.

Many people do not realize that they are suffering from injuries until weeks or months after an accident. Even if you do not experience leg pain or neck pain immediately, you should still set up an appointment with a professional.

What Conditions Do Chiropractors Treat?

Chiropractors treat a variety of conditions and types of pain related to muscles, ligaments, nerves, and joints. These conditions may stem from a variety of personal injuries, including shoveling snow, raking leaves, or falling at home. Auto accident injuries are also common issues that chiropractors can address.

Some personal injuries happen on the job. They include repetitive strain incidents and overuse injuries. Then, some issues become chronic pain triggers. They include herniated discs, sciatica, and other damaged soft tissues.
