How Does Lakewood Ranch Chiropractic of Bradenton Help?

Our Bradenton chiropractors help with pain and discomfort after an auto accident by identifying the underlying cause of the pain and finding an appropriate treatment solution. Whether you have whiplash or you want to heal from general discomfort in your muscles, we use different tools to help your body heal and recover. We also use diagnostic tools like an x-ray to identify any complications with your health like a broken or cracked bone.

When Should I Seek Treatment from the Chiropractors?

The appropriate time to seek treatment from a chiropractor at our clinic depends on your situation and health. Generally, professionals at Lakewood Ranch Chiropractic suggest seeking treatment for injuries and health concerns shortly after the auto accident.

What Services Do Your Chiropractors Offer for Auto Accident Recovery?

The services we offer depend on the severity of your injuries after an auto accident. Generally, we use chiropractic treatments like spinal adjustments and decompression therapy to help reduce the pain you experience and improve the function of your body and spine. Since injuries in an accident may impact your neck and spine, we evaluate the possible complications and recommend an effective treatment solution.

When we notice tight muscles from strains or sprains, we may recommend massage therapy. Our team offers massage therapy to help reduce tension in certain muscle groups and encourage better mobility. 

Over time, our chiropractor may recommend physical therapy to help your body recover from the injuries. Physical therapy occurs when we use exercises and stretches to help your muscles regain strength, flexibility, and mobility. We suggest the treatment when you experience difficulties moving after the accident or when your body needs time to fully recover due to broken bones or similar injuries.
