A chiropractor who specializes in auto injuries offers the potential to reduce inflamed tissue and the pain that it causes while restoring a patient’s flexibility and mobility using non-invasive treatment options. At The Edge Chiropractic in Ormond Beach, FL, Dr. Jason Dunlap and his staff provide noninvasive chiropractic and complementary therapies for those facing pain or loss of function caused by a car crash.
When a car mishap happens, the injuries that may be sustained by the driver, passenger(s), or pedestrian/cyclists will vary and be contingent on these important and related factors -
- The speed of the vehicles involved.
- The collision type.
- The road conditions that may have impacted the collision.
- The vehicles’ safety features.
- Your position in the vehicle upon impact, and more.
Keep in mind that sometimes auto injury symptoms will not show up for hours or sometimes days! This may happen because, at the time of the accident, a rush of adrenaline may mask/overtake newly-created injuries and the pain that follows. That is why seeking a medical assessment or exam after a car accident is essential, even if you have no apparent signs or symptoms of an injury caused by the accident or collision.
