Back Pain and Car Accidents

Back Pain is a common condition after a car accident, and it's something that North Road Chiropractic sees frequently in our Oakleigh office. What causes back pain after an auto collision? How can chiropractic care help?

During a rear-end auto collision, your car and car seat are quickly accelerated forward against your body. Since car seats don't perfectly align with the curvature of your spinal column, the car seat can put uneven pressure on your lower back. This can cause some of your spinal vertebrae to move in one direction while an adjacent vertebrae might move in another direction. This differential movement can sprain or strain the tissues that hold your spine together. This type of injury can cause chronic back pain if not treated right away. Fortunately, chiropractic is one of the most effective ways to treat back pain.

North Road Chiropractic is here in Oakleigh to help you recover from back pain. We've been helping patients since 2000 and we can probably help you, too. The first step is to get an accurate diagnosis to determine what's causing your symptoms and then we will determine an appropriate treatment plan of action. Give our office a call today at (03) 9579 2699 to make an appointment.
