Auto injury treatment can involve a number of providers, including chiropractic care. At Shaw Chiropractic Center in Richmond VA, we provide treatment for soft tissue injuries, poor range of motion, headaches, whiplash, and back pain caused by an auto accident. When you work with Dr. Scott Shaw, you get the care you need to heal from your injuries. With the right treatment in place, it is possible to recover from injuries more effectively.

Chiropractic Care and Auto Injury Treatment

The first step in the process is to go through an evaluation with Dr. Shaw to assess any problems caused by your auto accident. You will talk about your medical history and the accident that caused the injuries to occur. Your range of motion will be tested, and further imaging may be required to fully assess what is going on. Chiropractic care can be used as the only auto injury treatment you receive, or as a complementary therapy to enhance the treatment you receive from other providers.

What to Expect From a Richmond VA Chiropractor

When you are receiving auto injury treatment with a chiropractor, you can expect gentle adjustments and soft tissue mobilization to break up scar tissue. Inflammation can be high after an auto accident, and chiropractic care can help reduce inflammation and improve circulation to the area, bringing nutrient-dense blood to help heal your tissue. You will see the chiropractor two or three times a week in the early stages of treatment, and slowly taper down until you see the chiropractor once a month or so for maintenance.
