If you have been in an auto accident, it can be extremely helpful to seek chiropractic care. Chiropractic auto accident injury treatment from Hildebrand Chiropractic in San Antonio can help you heal any underlying problems and get back to normal as quickly as possible.

If I Went to the Hospital, Why Should I Also go to a Chiropractor?

Chiropractors like us use treatments that are aimed at restoring normal bodily function. Hospitals tend to treat the acute injuries you may have in ways that relieve discomfort temporarily (such as drugs) but which do not address the underlying issues.

What if I'm Only a Little Sore, Why Should I See a Chiropractor?

In the aftermath of an auto accident, injuries can seem minor but may get worse over time. If you are only a little sore, the best way to ensure that you don't get worse is to be evaluated by our chiropractor and start treatment as soon as possible.

How do Chiropractors Treat Auto Accident Injuries?

After determining what is causing your pain or discomfort, our chiropractor may recommend a variety of non-invasive, holistic treatment methods. These include spinal adjustment, joint manipulation, corrective exercises, and massage therapy.

Why Choose Chiropractic Care Instead of Drugs?

Drugs mask the pain of an injury, but they do not help it heal. In most cases, the injury heals and the person stops taking the drugs, but it may or may not have healed correctly. In other cases, the injury may continue to plague you and require constant medication. Chiropractic care addresses the underlying issues resulting in your pain, which means that solving the problem entirely is possible.

What is Whiplash and What are Some Symptoms of Whiplash?

Whiplash is a very common auto accident injury that occurs when the neck is whipped back and forth by the force of the impact. This strains muscles, tendons, and ligaments, as well as sometimes causing spinal misalignment. Symptoms of whiplash include neck pain, stiffness, headache, dizziness, and jaw pain, among other issues. Symptoms of whiplash may not occur for a few days after the incident.

Who Pays for Chiropractic Care After an Auto Accident?

In many cases, your auto insurance (or the other person's auto insurance, if they are found to be at fault) will pay. Sometimes, your health insurance will cover the cost. We accept many plans, so call us today and ask if yours is one of them.
