Injury Care

IF YOU HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN AN INJURY, WHETHER IT IS A WORK RELATED INJURY, SLIP AND FALL, OR A CAR ACCIDENT, IT IS BEST TO SCHEDULE AN EXAMINATION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

DELAYING RECEIVING TREATMENT FOR ACUTE INJURIES USUALLY RESULTS IN LONGER TREATMENT TIMES AND SLOWER RESULTS WHICH CAN DECREASE YOUR CHANCES OF RETURNING TO HOW YOU FELT BEFORE YOU INJURY.

WITH INJURIES, OFTEN THERE MAY NOT BE IMMEDIATE SYMPTOMS, BUT SOME MAY OCCUR A FEW DAYS OR WEEKS AFTER AN INJURY. THE PAIN AND SEVERITY OF THE INJURY MAY INCREASE IF YOU WAIT TOO LONG TO RECEIVE TREATMENT.

IN OUR OFFICE, WE SPECIALIZE IN EXAMS TO FIND YOUR INJURIES AND DEVELOP A CARE PLAN WITH MEDICATIONS, HOLISTIC OPTIONS, AT HOME REMEDIES, AND POSSIBLE REFERRALS TO SPECIALIZED DOCTORS TO GET YOU ON THE PATH TO RECOVERY.

Whiplash

Whiplash from a car accident is one of the most common auto injuries and causes damage to the soft tissues of the neck and back. Many people think whiplash only occurs in high speed or potentially fatal accidents, but whiplash can occur from accidents as slow as 5 mph.

If you are having any of these symptoms from a car accident, you likely have some form of whiplash:

Neck stiffness or pain
Upper or lower back stiffness or pain
Sharp muscle pains or spasms
Severe headaches or head pressure
Arm pains or tingling/numbness
Leg pains or tingling/numbness
Depression or post trauma stress
Insomnia or difficulty sleeping/nightmares

The quicker you get and exam and receive treatment for your injuries, the easier your full recovery will be.
