Frequently Asked Questions About Auto Accident Injuries by our Rancho Cucamonga Chiropractor

Each year nearly 231,000 people are injured in car accidents in California, according to the California Highway Patrol. Many of these injuries are minor and involve the occupants’ back, necks and extremity joints. At Spine Health Center, our chiropractor can help you heal through noninvasive treatments and get you back living your life. Here are a few of the most common car accident injury-related questions we receive each day.

How do I know if I have a car accident injury?

Directly after your accident, you may not know you have been injured. This is because your body releases adrenaline, which can mask pain. As the adrenaline in your body wears off, you may notice that you have back, neck or extremity joint pain. You may also have an increase in headache frequency and difficulty sleeping. If you notice these symptoms within 72 hours of your auto accident, you have a car accident related injury.

What types of car accident injuries does your chiropractor in Rancho Cucamonga treat?

Our chiropractor in Rancho Cucamonga treats a variety of musculoskeletal injuries that are the result of a vehicle accident. Common injuries that we treat include whiplash, herniated discs, pinched nerves and back, neck and extremity joint pain, including shoulder, knee and wrist injuries.

What treatments does your personal injury chiropractor in Rancho Cucamonga offer for the treatment of auto accident injuries?

Our personal injury chiropractor in Rancho Cucamonga provides non-invasive and minimally invasive natural treatments, including chiropractor adjustments, acupuncture, massage therapy and spinal decompression, and these treatments can be used by themselves or as part of a comprehensive injury treatment and wellness program.
