Accident Injury Sufferers Find Relief With Kent WA Chiropractor Through Rehabilitation

By Mark Marabut


Following any kind of accident the first thing to do is check for injuries. A wide range of possibilities exist. The resultant pain leads to seeking relief. Chiropractic care is often preferred. For one thing there is no chance of addiction to pain pills. For another it is non-invasive. Turning to Kent Chiropractic leads to pain alleviation for many accident victims.

The person who does his own maintenance might take a fall from a ladder while painting the exterior. How he lands on the ground determines what part of his body is injured. It can be a sprained arm, strained soft tissue or a twisted knee. When the pain continues, chiropractic intervention can evaluate and care for any such condition.

A high-speed car crash can leave the driver with any number of injuries. In a rear-end crash a whiplash injury is likely even if the cars are moving slowly. As the head is jerked forward, then backward, the cervical vertebrae can be subluxated, meaning they are out of place. As they put pressure on the nerve roots located there, serious pain ensues.

A back injury can occur from a seemingly uneventful occurrence. Bending forward to lift a heavy box rather than stooping and lifting with your legs is one of those. When spinal vertebrae are partially dislodged, they may exert pressure against one or more nerve roots. The pain can be excruciating.

The predominant method used by the chiropractor is a series of spinal adjustments to relieve that pressure. It is by returning the vertebrae gradually into the correct position that the pressure causing the pain is alleviated. Deep tissue massage can help relax the muscles that have been strained.

The first office visit is devoted to a full evaluation that includes physically examining the spine, range-of-motion tests and compiling a medical history. An x-ray helps to clarify the location of the injury. Over time the muscles will relax and the subluxation can be corrected. Following the reduction of pain you can look forward to working and enjoying life once again.
