Bellevue’s Car Accident Chiropractor

Driving on the highways in my home town in Bellevue WA, car accidents on the side of the road are a normal occurrence. What most people do not know is how hard a car accident can be on the body. Listen to this quote from the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology from 2001, “Whiplash injuries not only increase the incidence of chronic neck and shoulder pain, it also significantly increases the incidence of other systemic ill health effects. In other words,whiplash injuries cause more than neck pain and headache, it hurts the health of the entire body.”

Almost every car accident will create some sort of injury to the neck and/or low back. Most car accident victims should be seeing a doctor of chiropractic.

“It is estimated that 15-40% of those who are injured in a motor vehicle collision will suffer from ongoing chronic pain.”(Journal of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, 2007)

Did you know that even accidents that are under 5 MPH can also cause injury? It has been widely documented that the damage to your car has very little to do with the amount of injury that you have.

If you have been in an accident in Bellevue it will be important for you to see a Bellevue Chiropractor. X-rays, and motion x-rays can be taken to asses for any ligament damage that may be an indicator of chronic problems.

“Chiropractic spinal adjusting can essentially fix 81% of disabled patients suffering from chronic low back and leg pain, even when other treatment approaches had failed.” (Canadian Family Physician, 1985)

“93% of patients with chronic whiplash pain who have failed medical and physical therapy care improve significantly with chiropractic adjustments.” (Injury, 1996)
