Chiropractic Treatment for Auto Accidents

If you have been involved in an auto accident, you must have your spine checked by a competent professional. Auto accidents can cause a wide range of problems resulting, quite literally, in painful conditions any place in your body. The most common injury is the whiplash injury to the neck, which, if severe enough, can leave one hospitalized. What you may not know or be thinking about is that nerves from all throughout the body run through thew neck to the brain. The neck is a vital conduit for the activity occurring below it, and yes, a bone out of place in the neck can be causing your leg pain. Or maybe it is the fact that your body was just wrapped around the shoulder restraint and you sprained the lower back. These issues must be addressed mechanically. No amount of pain medication or waiting will change the position of bone and remove the pressure off the pinched nerve, but waiting and lack of proper treatment can leave you scarred for life. Dr. Stewart has successfully treated auto accidents for years and actively educates himself on the topic regularly. The treatment you receive will be supported by research that will stand up in court; which brings up other issues that you must be aware of, especially if you were not at fault. Insurance companies just love to deny a claim and avoid the expense. If the other driver is at fault, they are liable for the expense of your care, period! You may need an attorney to reconcile this problem. Dr. Stewart accepts auto accident patients on a lien basis, which means he is compensated from the settlement of your case. If you need an attorney and don't know who to see, Dr. Stewart will refer you to a competent, successful personal injury attorney. If you need more information regarding your accident or injury, please call the office and Dr. Stewart will be happy to help.
