Chiropractic is Great for Pain After Auto Injury

Each year, there are millions of auto accidents in the world, and a significant quantity of people are hurt in a auto injury. Even though most collisions are "minor," chronic neck and back pain are still common health issues. The good news is that chiropractic care is a fantastic way to address these kinds of injuries.

We have treated many auto accident patients in our Napa office, and Dr. Bettencourt has been treating people with these types of problems for many years. During a auto collision, your body is subjected to large forces that it simply wasn't built to deal with. These forces put strain and stress on your neck, shoulder, and back, and can cause injury to the ligaments that hold your spine together. A collision can result in a wide range of pain symptoms.

A ligament tear in the neck can trigger pain, swelling, and radicular pain in the arm and hand. Chiropractic Therapy works well for these types of injuries, because chiropractic focuses on restoring the healthy function and flexibility of the injured areas.
