In The Aftermath Of Accidents Pain Sufferers Get Relief With The Help Of A Warners Bay NSW Chiropractor

By Lilia Slaybaugh


There are numerous reasons an individual might be hurting. An automobile accident may cause a whiplash injury. The pain that results can be attributed to a strained muscle or a subluxation of the spine. A leading Warners Bay Australia Chiropractor uses various methods to alleviate the pain a person is experiencing.

The spine extends from the base of the skull to the tailbone and is made up of small hollow bones called vertebrae. The spinal cord runs through the openings in these hollow bones. The spinal nerves stem from the spinal cord to innervate the entire body.

The subluxation, or misalignment of one or more vertebrae can cause pressure on one or more spinal nerves and pain will result. Sometimes it is relatively mild, but, in some cases it is unbearable. It can prevent the individual from holding down a job.

That hurt can be reduced through chiropractic care. The use of gentle spinal adjustments are successful for this purpose. Gradually, over a time, the vertebrae are returned to the normal position. The pressure is lifted and the pain subsides.

The first step during an office visit is to examine the client and devise a care plan. The back is examined physically. If that is not conclusive, an x-ray may be ordered. A medical history is taken as well.

After that a plan for care can be created. Details are clarified for the client and usually a series of spinal adjustments are arranged. The required number will depend on how fast the individual responds. Age, cause of the pain and severity of the injury will contribute to how many adjustments are needed as well.

In addition to the subluxation of one or more vertebrae, joints, muscles, ligaments and cartilage may be contributing to the hurt. Mild exercises may be done at home between appointments. Nutritional counseling has been helpful for many clients. Ultimately, the goal of care is to prepare a client to return to his or her job and recreational activities previously enjoyed.
