Suffer a Personal Injury?
Car accident injuries often occur when your vehicle collides with another car or object, or when someone else crashes into you. The sudden impact can cause a range of musculoskeletal injuries that affect your bones, joints, muscles, and tendons. Even if you feel fine after a car accident it’s crucial to visit a car accident chiropractor, like Easley Health & Spine, because many injuries from a car accident can take hours or even days to develop noticeable symptoms. Early intervention from a chiropractor can prevent these issues from worsening and support a more effective recovery. Some common car accident injuries include:

Diagnosis & Treatment
When you visit Easley Health & Spine, our team works to identify the root cause of your pain. Car accident injuries can stem from a variety of tissues including muscle, ligament, bone, nerve, or disc problems. The injuries may also be mechanical in nature, affecting the alignment and function of your spine and joints.
We will conduct a thorough physical examination, checking the affected area for bruising, swelling, and tenderness, as well as assessing your muscle strength, reflexes, and flexibility. To ensure an accurate diagnosis, we may utilize advanced imaging techniques such as X-rays. These imaging tools allow our team to evaluate the condition of your bones, joints, and connective tissues, and pinpoint the exact cause of your discomfort.
Easley Health & Spine takes an integrative and holistic approach to treating car accident injuries, focusing on both immediate pain relief and long-term healing. Treatment plans are customized based on the severity of your injuries and may include adjustments, traction, or other therapies.

Throughout the aging process and daily wear and tear, the spine can become misaligned. However, a properly shaped spine is necessary for nerve signals and blood to flow effectively from the brain to every part of the body. To compensate for bad posture and the daily effects of gravity pushing us down, the body’s muscles may push and pull on different parts of the spine in an attempt to create an open pathway, which leads to many forms of neck and back pain. Additionally, pinched nerves and blood vessels can cause organs to malfunction or wear down quicker over time, leading to many common diseases and medical conditions. Chiropractic treats symptoms like:
