In spite of seat belts and air bags, both driver and passenger often require professional care after a car crash. If a spinal misalignment is not corrected it can lead to more serious abnormalities later on. The spine and nervous system are the purview of the chiropractic profession. A leading Noblesville chiropractor sees many clients with muscle strain and stiffness caused by a road accident.

Lower back pain is a frequent complaint. When the cervical vertebrae, those in the neck, are out of place, it may prevent the victim from being able to turn his head. This whiplash injury is painful and requires rehabilitative measures.

A low speed collision can cause this type of damage, most notably in a rear end crash. As the cars collide, the head is thrust forward and back in a rough way. It affects the victim in the same way shaken baby syndrome causes the death of an infant. The person riding in the car, unlike the infant, can survive.

The person who chooses to ignore pain thinking it indicates bravery is doing himself a disservice. Symptoms such as visual blur, shoulder or arm pain and a stiff neck should receive professional attention. Pain is the body telling you there is something wrong.

Start your recovery with a visit to the chiropractor. An evaluation of your condition will determine the type of care that will be most beneficial. Your spine will be examined and range of motion will be measured. Your posture will be considered and an x-ray taken.

A series of spinal adjustments are frequently the appropriate choice for correcting a misalignment. Massage may be used conjunctively to relax tightened muscles and promote healing. A low impact exercise routine may be recommended to advance flexibility and alleviate the pain. Movement, even a daily walk is preferable to inactivity as it will aid in your recovery.
