What Do Chiropractors Do?

Chiropractors treat injuries to the musculoskeletal system, including bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles in relation to the Central Nervous System. Treatment for these injuries involve:

• Non-invasive natural remedies
• Manual adjustments
• Massage therapy
• Trigger point therapy
• Soft tissue rehabilitation

A chiropractor’s approach to medicine is about maintenance so that your body can get a jumpstart on the healing process. It involves the realignment of the spine via hand. It doesn’t involve surgeries to correct issues or painkillers to numb the pain.

When Should You See a Chiropractor?

For injury claims, you may need to seek out a chiropractor to treat whiplash or spill and fall injuries immediately. Personal injury claims or lawsuits require that you do so to establish the need for care.

When you go to the emergency room, the doctor is most likely going to have x-rays done following the accident. This doctor will then refer you to a chiropractor if they think that it is the best course of action for treatment.

Benefits of Personal Injury Chiropractors

Seeing a chiropractor who deals with personal injury regularly will be able to walk you through all of the insurance documents and fill them out for you. You will need this documentation for proof of chiropractic services if your claim goes to court. This does not, however, mean that it’s easy to understand unless you regularly see this type of paperwork.

Your personal injury chiropractor can work hand-in-hand with your personal injury lawyer to strengthen your case. The more info your lawyer has, the better equipped they will be to get the settlement that you deserve. They can also run interference between you and the insurance adjusters by giving them important information and dealing with them directly. 

Tips for Choosing the Right Chiropractor

Before choosing a chiropractor to treat your injuries, make sure that their intake process includes specific, detailed questions that are relevant to your injury. They should also ask about your medical history. They should want to see the results of various medical tests, including orthopedic and neurologic scans and the x-rays from the emergency room doctor.

Make sure that they take the time to listen to your story and get all of the information that they need before beginning treatment or diagnosing you. They should be interested in the information from your referral and be willing to refer you to someone else if they can’t treat your injuries.
