If you've been in a car accident and are experiencing pain or discomfort, seeing a chiropractor near you for an auto injury consultation may be an important first step towards getting relief. At Shenandoah Chiropractic, your chiropractor in Harrisonburg, VA, we can assess your injuries and create a treatment plan tailored just for you. Here's what to expect at your initial visit:
A chiropractor on our team may first ask you to describe the auto accident - things like the speed you were traveling, the direction of impact, whether your airbags deployed, and if you lost consciousness. Be prepared to explain all the symptoms you've had since the crash, like back/neck pain, headaches, stiffness, numbness or tingling. It may be a good idea to bring a list of your current medications and supplements too. Giving as many details as possible helps guide the exam and treatment.
Next, the chiropractor will do a limited physical exam assessing your spine, joints, muscles, mobility, reflexes, and more. Let our team know if any exam motions cause discomfort. Don’t tough it out - give feedback so we can thoroughly assess injuries.
We may also order imaging exams like X-rays. This gives a detailed look at your spinal structure and soft tissues and can reveal underlying issues not visible during a physical exam.
Once the exam and imaging is complete, we will explain our findings, diagnosis, and recommended treatment plan. Based on the severity and type of injuries, treatment may include:
