5 ways Essential ChiroCare can help you after an accident, no matter how small or severe.

Dr. Thang Tran, DC • August 19, 2022
Pain after an accident can completely alter your mobility and quality of life, but it doesn’t mean that you have to succumb to this new normal. Pain is a signal–arguably the most effective one that our bodies can produce. Our job as medical practitioners is to listen to what your pain is trying to tell us, digging deep to address the underlying cause of it in order to bring you both short and long-term relief. Treating your pain means understanding its relationship to your body and carefully charting a course with that relationship in mind. At Essential ChiroCare, our approach focuses on the root cause of pain so that you can see better mobility, increased comfort levels, and a high quality of life. Here’s a look at how we do that.

1.We Listen

The most important thing we do has nothing to do with advanced manipulations or high-tech machinery; it’s listening to our patients. We come in without assumptions or biases, listening to what you have to say about your pain and experiences. Once you’ve described your pain points to us, we ask questions in order to better understand them–as well as their context.

Context, when it comes to achieving relief from pain, is everything.

9

Is that back pain completely acute following your accident, or did the crash simply make an existing pain worse?

9

Is your lifestyle active or sedentary?

9

Do you have any genetic conditions that affect your skeletal or nervous system?

 

These bits of knowledge are important pieces of the puzzle that comprises your health and mobility profile. It’s only by putting them together that we are able to map out a course of treatment that makes sense for you.

2.We Follow the Science

Our goal is always to provide compassionate, evidence-based care. We rely not just on your anecdotal experiences, but on the advanced scientific tools at our disposal in order to determine how best to help you. This includes diagnostic imaging, like X-rays, as well as computerized diagnostic testing in order to get an in-depth understanding of your neuromusculoskeletal (that is, your nervous, muscular, and skeletal) system. This, in addition to hands-on manual manipulation, enables us to get a more thorough understanding of your pain points in order to treat their underlying causes.

3.We’re Hands-On

Chiropractic care is known to be a very hands-on form of treatment, and that’s the case in our practice. Generally, treatment plans can include everything from massage therapy to physical therapy, manual manipulation, spinal decompression, and mobility training.

The goal of these manual forms of therapy is to reduce pain, diminish inflammation, promote skeletal alignment, and increase blood flow. Hands-on chiropractic care is linked to a host of benefits, including:

9

Decreased muscular tightness and spasms

9

Improved range of motion

9

Lymphatic flow

9

Better quality of sleep

9

Less dependence on pain medication

4.We Prioritize Mobility

Chiropractic care is aimed at helping you move better, restoring full mobility (or as close to it as possible) so you can live a full, active life with minimal pain. In order to promote long-term mobility, we offer not just chiropractic treatment, but physical therapy and exercise that strengthens your muscles, corrects your form, and bolsters your physical fitness so that you walk away at the end of treatment with sustainable habits that you can take with you.

5.We Educate

Encouraging sustainable improvement and freedom from pain means equipping you with the knowledge you’ll need to live a healthy, active lifestyle. During treatment, we’ll simultaneously target your pain points while strengthening your body and preparing your mind for the outcome. This means encouraging you to build sustainable habits that will maintain your positive results, whether that means nutritional advice, an exercise plan, or extended treatment as needed based on your unique circumstances.

Recovering from an injury can be challenging, and we are here to ensure that you never have to do it alone.

At Essential ChiroCare, our goal is to offer effective treatment by addressing the root cause of pain after an accident, then equipping you with the tools you need to achieve long-term health, mobility, and comfort. To schedule your first consultation with us, just click here.
