Back Pain After an Auto Collision

Let's take a look at why back pain is commonly experienced after an auto collision and see how your chiropractor can help you get better

Chiropractic is a great way to treat back pain. Let's look at how back pain is caused by a crash and how Dr. Harrison can help you.

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 curve of your spine, the car seat can put uneven force on your 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 motion can sprain or strain the tissues that hold your spine together. These types of injuries can cause chronic back pain if not treated promptly. Thankfully, chiropractic is one of the most effective ways to treat back pain.
