Auto Accidents Q & A

What types of injuries occur in an auto accident?

The types of injuries following an auto accident can vary depending on multiple factors, like the speed of the vehicle (or vehicles); the position of impact; airbag deployment; and more. Even minor accidents can cause substantial damage to the body. These can include:

  • cuts
  • bruises
  • concussions
  • broken bones
  • internal injuries

One of the most common injuries after an accident is whiplash, which occurs when the head snaps back and forth suddenly after the car is impacted. It can cause severe damage to the vertebrae, nerves, discs, muscles, and ligaments in the neck and spine.

The impact of an auto accident can damage sensitive tissues, especially those associated with the spine. This damage can cause an uneven pull on the spine, throwing the body out of alignment. An uneven pull on the spine can limit the normal range-of-motion in the back and spine, leading to degeneration and continued pain.

Injuries from an auto accident aren’t always evident within the first few days or weeks, so you should get a complete evaluation immediately after the incident to pinpoint any lasting trauma.

How does Dynamic Integrative Health help after an auto accident?

The doctors at Dynamic Integrative Health can remedy any trauma to the body through a combination of physical therapy; nutritional or supplemental advice; and mild adjustments of misaligned bones. This conjoined approach has proven to be very effective at treating the various types of injuries that occur after auto accidents.

What will happen at my first appointment following a car accident?

First, one of the staff will collect a full history and documentation of the accident. Your dedicated Dynamic Integrative Health provider will then perform a thorough examination to determine the extent of your injuries. This can involve, for example, an X-ray to examine the skeletal structures for any possible damage, including any underlying issues that may have been missed. Based on what your doctor learns from the exams, they’ll then put together a treatment plan that will address your specific injuries

If you, or someone close to you, has been in an auto accident contact the offices at Dynamic Integrative Health to set up a consultation.
