Auto Injury Treatment
It started with a routine trip to the store.
Suddenly you hear a screeching of tires and the harsh sound of metal hitting metal. In the split second before you can brace yourself, you feel your car moving from some unseen force!
Hidden Damage
It’s tempting to minimize your own injuries because your car has sustained little or no damage. Research shows that occupants can be injured considerably more than what you’d expect from a dented fender or a broken taillight.
The Traditional Solution
If you visit the emergency room, you may be given a clean bill of health because you don’t have any broken bones. You might get a prescription to reduce the muscle spasms caused by structural changes in your neck or lower back.
- Impact Injuries: Part of a persons body hitting something in the car.
- Soft Tissue Injuries: Damage to the bodies connective tissue (this is the most common type of auto injury)
- Whiplash Injuries: Even a minor fender bender can produce a whiplash injury.
- Closed head injuries/concussions: These occur when the head is in sudden movement or impact, causing damage to the tissue and fluid.? Less severe injuries can result in concussions, while more severe can result in brain damage.
