Whiplash / Auto Injury - Graham Chiropractic

Whiplash/Auto Injury

If you have pain due to an auto related collision we can help. Our doctors are specifically trained to accurately examine your injuries and provide necessary and highly effective treatment. As importantly, we will accurately document your injuries for medical legal purposes.

If you have been told to rest, take medications, and wait for your pain to go away you may be in for a big surprise. Studies indicate that pain lasting more than 2 weeks likely will not go away without appropriate rehabilitative care. Many victims struggle to find effective treatment to get out of pain. Graham Chiropractic has comprehensive programs to assist with your pain from auto related injuries.

The truth is your body will attempt to heal regardless of the care you receive. Studies indicate that passive care like rest and medication not only fail a large percentage of injured from getting out of pain, it also promotes a poor healing response that results in long-term pain and disability. Injured tissues (muscles and ligaments) require functional demands during the healing process to reduce the scar formation that ultimately causes long-term issues. The wait and watch approach will promote poor healing and disability.

Comprehensive Care: A team approach is often needed to get the desired results and that is exactly what we do. Our combination of pain management, chiropractic, physical therapy, therapeutic massage, and acupuncture focus on getting you out of pain and back to your life again. For those who require diagnostics or treatment not offered at our center we have a comprehensive team of outside physicians we refer to. Injuries big and small, we have you covered.

Documentation: Things can get messy when dealing with insurance companies who are legally obligated to pay for medically necessary care and rehabilitation. Sometimes they even imply that you’re not injured, or they may decide not to pay for care that you need to get better. The devil is in the details when it comes to explaining an injury and documenting it thoroughly. With comprehensive history of the accident, extensive medical documentation using testing and studies as well as a coordinated team approach significantly reduces the chance your care will get cut off before you are healed. We communicate, send reports and document progress to work with the insurance companies to give our patients the best opportunity to heal and move on with their lives.

Caring atmosphere: Our team is compassionate and understands how difficult it is to suffer with pain from an accident. Pain can prevent you from performing at work, interfere with your personal relationships and generally interrupts your life. We work with our patients and help them navigate the pressures an injury creates.
