Auto Accident Injuries

Nearly All Auto Accident Injuries Benefit from Chiropractic Care

When you have a fender bender or some other minor auto accident, it’s easy to get caught up in your follow-up. You will need to get your car repaired. There will be a report to make and forms to fill out. You need to get a loaner car and you need to figure out how to get the kids where they need to go and you may need a different way to work for a while. You also need to see your chiropractor. Dr. Brianna Skarbek of Skarbek Chiropractic, serving Libertyville and Deerfield wants you to know three things about chiropractic care for auto accident injuries.

Auto Accident Injuries Don’t Necessarily Present Symptoms Right Away

Just about any car crash can result in auto accident injuries, but you may not notice them right away. Your adrenaline is pumping when you are in a car crash, so you won’t notice the pain of auto accident injuries until you completely calm down. The damage done by auto accident injuries may only take place as your muscles are repairing themselves with inflammation and swelling, tugging at the vertebrae in your cervical spine. Whiplash injuries can cause intense pain and disability that only shows up days, weeks, months, or sometimes years after the crash. Even if you feel fine, you need to get checked out by your chiropractor to get the early care that prevents pain and lost time from work and life later.

You Probably Won’t Have to Pay for Treatment with Your Chiropractor for Auto Accident Injuries

It’s only natural to avoid getting the medical help you need if you have health insurance with a huge deductible. Treatment for your auto accident injuries is usually paid from your auto insurance, not your medical insurance. Your chiropractor’s staff will know how to file your claim. Just ask!

The Sooner You Start Chiropractic Treatment, the Less Pain You Will Go through

We just can’t say this often enough: chiropractic care is always better had sooner than later. Your chiropractor can diagnose the small changes in your spine and muscles that set you up for future injuries, and get you started on exactly the treatments you need to stay functional and pain-free. Dr. Skarbek offers a variety of chiropractic modalities including not just spinal adjustments, but also physiotherapy, massage therapy, and specialized treatments for children and women in pregnancy.
