Why Visit a Chiropractor After a Car Accident?

Visiting a chiropractor for auto injury treatment in Jacksonville will give you the best chance of a successful recovery from auto injuries like whiplash. Rather than waiting for hours in a hospital emergency room, our chiropractor, Dr. Schumacher, can quickly evaluate and diagnose your symptoms. Our chiropractor can also provide same-day auto injury treatment and whiplash treatment. There are many reasons to visit a chiropractor after being in a car accident, including:

Identify Hidden Injuries Faster

While you may feel fine after a car accident, it could be that adrenaline is preventing you from noticing signs or symptoms of injury. Many auto accident injuries, like whiplash, don’t even show signs or symptoms until days or weeks after an auto accident. Our chiropractor can provide onsite diagnostic testing and imaging, like an x-ray or MRI, to identify any hidden injuries. 

Receive Non-Invasive Treatment

Chiropractors practice holistic healthcare and try to find the least invasive treatment method possible for a patient’s injuries. This means that Dr. Schumacher won’t recommend surgery or other invasive procedures, or prescription medications. Instead, he will use all-natural treatment methods that have been proven clinically effective at reducing pain and inflammation, speeding up recovery and rehabilitation, and improving range of motion and mobility.

Obtain Documentation of Your Injuries and Treatment Plan

In addition to providing swift diagnosis and treatment, Dr. Schumacher will give you documentation of your injuries and your treatment plan, including the projected length of treatment and recovery time. This can be used to request time off work, file an auto insurance claim, or file a personal injury claim against the at-fault driver.
