Chiropractic Care for Auto Accidents and Personal Injuries
Imagine this: You’re driving along, minding your own business, when suddenly, screeching tires and the shattering sound of metal fill the air. In an instant, your world is turned upside down. The impact leaves you shaken, injured, and uncertain about what to do next.
If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve recently experienced a car accident or personal injury, and you’re seeking answers, guidance, and, most importantly, chiropractic care.
At Cutsinger Chiropractic, we want you to know that you’ve come to the right place. We’re here to help you get out of pain and back to health, naturally.
How We Help
When you’re injured in an accident, your body can be thrown out of alignment-and a trickle-down effect can begin to happen. What starts as a misalignment in the neck or back becomes pain and discomfort in other areas of the body you may not have even thought were harmed.
Our goal is to correct the issues before they become longstanding. Through gentle, focused care, we deliver adjustments exactly where you need them.
We also understand that no two injuries are alike, and often find the severity of pain can vary from person to person. Our approach to care depends on the individual’s level of pain and injury. For patients experiencing lower levels of pain, we can be more hands-on and provide gentle adjustments to alleviate discomfort. However, for those with higher levels of pain, we take a more cautious approach and may incorporate additional therapies such as ice and heat treatments, electrical muscle stimulation, and the use of low-force instruments like the activator.
The First Appointment Process and Important Documents
During your first appointment after a car accident, we’ll ask you to bring all relevant medical documentation. Patients who visited the emergency room following the accident should bring the attending physician’s notes, any imaging reports, and MRIs if they were done. These documents help determine the extent of the damage and provide valuable information for making appropriate treatment decisions.
It’s also important for patients to bring their auto insurance and medical insurance documents to facilitate necessary paperwork.
Insurance
Many insurance policies cover chiropractic care for auto accidents and personal injury incidents, and we’re happy to accept them. Coverage limits can vary based on the policy, with some policies providing coverage up to $5,000 or more per person.
It’s essential to review your insurance policy to understand the specific benefits available to you. Additionally, if the accident was not your fault, pursuing a claim against the at-fault party may be an option. Keeping a detailed diary of your symptoms and limitations can serve as valuable evidence if your case goes to court.
