The human body is built to endure a lot but high impact to the body of any type can create problems when the musculoskeletal system is knocked out of alignment. It’s important that in the unfortunate event this happens, you seek proper care to heal. High impact is especially common in sports injuries and auto accidents which can cause inflammation to muscles, joints, and more. Utilizing us as your Orlando Chiropractor for natural healing of the impacted muscles and joints is important as we can help common injuries heal naturally with the help of chiropractic techniques.
Chiropractic Care
As chiropractors, we help the body to heal itself using therapies, chiropractic adjustments, stretching, and more. When it comes to sports and auto injuries, the body has been impacted heavily; utilizing gentle techniques creates a positive outcome for the injury.
Past patients have demonstrated tremendous success through chiropractic care for natural healing. Although sports and auto accident injuries may seem like they don’t happen often or there’s a low chance you may be impacted, here are some statistics:
- Out of 6,000 drivers surveyed, 6% had been involved in a car accident the prior year (Chiro-Trust.org).
- In 2017 there were around 526,000 exercise related injuries with or without equipment (III Org).
- 40-70% of individuals who suffer from whiplash have long lasting results over a decade later (Chiro-Trust.org).
Sports Injuries and Auto Accidents
Muscles are responsible for your movement, strength and stability. Tendons, ligaments, and bones all work in conjunction with the muscles to make everyday tasks possible like walking, running, and jumping. In common sports or auto injuries and accidents, there can be trauma to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones caused by the high impact. Utilizing chiropractic treatments to repair, strengthen, and heal properly may be the perfect plan for you and your injury.
