Accidents can happen under so many circumstances. They can result in no serious injury or the victims might be disabled. When suffering chronic pain many people turn to chiropractors to alleviate that pain. They are favored due to the non-invasive and non-addictive care they offer. Kent Chiropractic has helped many accident victims to bring their intense pain to a tolerable level.

A homeowner may fall off his ladder while cleaning the rain gutters on the house. Depending on the position of his body when he hits the ground, he can suffer a serious back injury, a sprained arm or strained muscles in a leg. If the pain persists, the chiropractor can assess and care for any of these condition.

A high-speed car crash can leave the driver with any number of injuries. In a rear-end crash a whiplash injury is likely even if the cars are moving slowly. As the head is jerked forward, then backward, the cervical vertebrae can be subluxated, meaning they are out of place. As they put pressure on the nerve roots located there, serious pain ensues.

A back injury can occur from a seemingly uneventful occurrence. Bending forward to lift a heavy box rather than stooping and lifting with your legs is one of those. When spinal vertebrae are partially dislodged, they may exert pressure against one or more nerve roots. The pain can be excruciating.

Your chiropractor will facilitate pain relief in two or more ways. Spinal adjustments gently coax the misaligned bones in the neck back into the correct position. Deep tissue massage will relax the tightened muscles.

A schedule will be arranged for the spinal adjustments and massage. As the vertebrae are returned to the correct position and the strained muscles are loosened, the pain will subside. You may have a low-impact exercise routine designed specifically for your condition as you become more flexible. After the pain is alleviated, regular check-ups are advised to maintain your improved condition.
