Injuries

It’s a rare life that hasn’t been punctuated by a traumatic brush (or collision) with reality. And although accidents may be unavoidable, much of the physical damage and suffering resulting from them may, in many cases, be avoided with chiropractic care.

Minor Accidents
Most accidents are minor. In those cases chiropractic care should be sought out as quickly as possible. Too often severe health problems first began as a little fall, whiplash, bump or shake-up that may have caused some pain initially but was later forgotten.
Millions of people leave emergency rooms unaware that they are carrying around hidden spinal distortions that may cause severe health problems at a later date .

What Heals?
Although the surgeon may set the ends of the broken bones together, the pieces do not automatically heal. And although a doctor may sew the torn flesh together with stitches, the skin does not automatically mend. It is you innate healing ability that will knit the pieces to become as one bone again. It is the body’s healing ability that will turn the fragments of skin into the seamless surface it was before the injury
It is not the stitches, medicines or artificial devices that heal. If that were true, then a corpse would heal when given the right pills, surgery and fresh donor blood.

“You’ll Have To Live With It”
Based on medical statistics, over half of the victims of auto accidents never fully recover under medical (including orthopedic) care. There are still pain, disability and other constant reminders that they were hurt and haven’t fully healed. These people need to know that a very important aspect of their care is still missing.
All people who have been in an accident or trauma should see a chiropractor to have their spinal columns checked for nerve pressure caused by vertebral subluxations. A chiropractic adjustment can make the difference between life and death, between a life with pain, disability and sickness and a life of true recovery, activity and accomplishment.
