When was the last time you were in a car accident?

Answers I hear range from "never" (consider yourself very lucky) to "Big one or small one?"

According to the car insurance industry Americans on average will be involved in 3-4 accidents in their lifetime. There are 10 million car accidents of all kinds every YEAR.

Most people feel they know what do when involved in an accident, but do you know what NOT to do?

Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX) Is Essential In Detecting Hidden Injuries After A Car Accident Whiplash Injury

Picture
You were stopped at a red light when another car hit you going 25 mph from behind. It was so sudden. Your neck whipped backward and forward violently. And now you have headaches, neck pain and stiffness that won't go away. Your doctor ordered the usual tests — X-rays CT scan, MRI— which he said came back "normal." So you went home with a prescription for muscle relaxant and pain medicine for your undiagnosed whiplash injury AND you still have no idea why you’re hurting. Weeks after your car accident, you’re still in pain.

What Can Chiropractic Do For Me?

Chiropractic is the branch of healing arts that deals with structure and function.
Chiropractors have found that if there is pressure along the spine, irritating and interfering with the nerve, it will cause pain (function). It is highly probable that it will affect muscles, joints, blood vessels and even organs and glands (structure).


It is the chiropractor's job at Coastal Chiropractic Clinic to determine if such a problem exists and if it can be relieved. Advanced technology and extensive diagnostic training assure the chiropractic physician - and you - that the findings are valid and prognosis reliable.

No potential harmful substances are introduced into the body, nor is any part of the body cut away. If your chiropractor cannot find the cause of your problem, you will be referred to another specialist.

Statistics reveal that 85 PERCENT OF PATIENTS TREATED CHIROPRACTICALLY BECOME SYMPTOM-FREE or show improvement. It is possible that some conditions may have progressed to the point where the body's natural recuperative powers have become ineffective.

CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP MAINTAIN OR RESTORE YOUR GOOD HEALTH.

Auto Accident Injury Treatment in Edgewater

Here is a video of our digital motion x ray machine. This is actually my neck.

Also some interesting news:
The speed at which accident victims may be injured in rear-impact car crashes is amazingly low.

Recent research articles have shown that the human threshold for neck injuries in a rear-impact automobile collision is only 2.5 mph.

For years the personal injury field has used 5 mph as a consensus figure for injuries. Brault, et al has shown that the 5 mph figure was indeed double the actual figure. Others have shown that slow speed collisions actually cause more injury than collisions with more vehicle damage.

Common Medical Mistakes:
•Assuming you are not injured because your pain is mild
•Assuming you aren’t hurt because your car wasn’t
•Believing the ER doctor when he or she says “it’s just a strain, you’ll be better in a couple of days…”
•Treating with non auto accident specialists like your general chiropractor, family medical doctor, HMO doctor, etc. Accident injuries are not the same as gardening strains, and require advanced training.

Rest assured all the doctors and therapists at Coastal Chiropractic Clinic are highly trained experts - not only in health & wellness, but also personal injury care.

If you have been in an accident get checked immediately. New Florida laws require a checkup within two weeks or you lose all your health benefits. It is common to feel little or no pain just after an accident, a few simple tests by an expert can determine if there are any injuries.
