Chiropractic Treatment for Slip-and-Fall Injuries

Chiropractic Treatment for Slip-and-Fall Injuries with our Charlotte Chiropractor

Wet Floor Sign

A slip-and-fall incident delivers a jolt to your entire body. Not surprisingly, this can cause some parts of your musculoskeletal system to slip out of alignment, resulting in back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and more. Fortunately, chiropractic treatment can help restore proper alignment of your spine and other joints, alleviating your symptoms while simultaneously supporting your body’s natural healing processes.

How Our Chiropractor Treats Slip-and-Fall Injuries

Depending on the specific nature of your injury, our chiropractor will perform a range of manual adjustments combined with soft tissue therapies. When your bones are out of alignment, there is added pressure on associated structures and soft tissues to support the weight that the injured area usually bears.

There may also be compressed or irritated nerves in the injured area, and all of these elements contribute to the pain, stiffness, and immobility you experience. Chiropractic treatments focus on restoring range of motion and overall function to your joints. That allows your body’s natural processes to provide what your tissues need to heal efficiently by facilitating proper circulation and reducing inflammation.

Personalized Treatment at Our Charlotte Chiropractic Clinic

When you visit our Charlotte chiropractic clinic for treatment of a slip-and-fall injury, our chiropractor will complete a thorough physical evaluation to test your range of motion, reflexes and muscle strength. We will also discuss the specific circumstances of the accident, as well as your complete medical history to determine the proper course of treatment.

The treatment plan we develop will be tailored to your individual needs, and it may include a combination of manual spinal adjustments, spinal decompression therapy, massage therapy, physical therapy and independent exercises you can do at home. Initial treatment sessions will focus on relieving your symptoms by restoring alignment and reducing inflammation. This, in turn, can help bring back mobility and function, allowing you to resume your normal daily activities without pain as quickly as possible.
