At Apple Wellness Chiropractic Center in Winchester, VA, we offer various treatments to provide relief and improve your health. Learn more about some of our treatments below:
Chiropractic Care for Whiplash
Whiplash occurs when your head is moved frontward and backward forcefully during a collision, which can impact your neck and upper spine. Our chiropractor can treat this painful condition with several proven therapies to help you to heal naturally. Your treatment might include massage therapy, electrostimulation, and spinal adjustments.
Massage Therapy
Car collisions often cause soft tissue injuries that result in swelling and pain. Our chiropractor can soothe the swelling and inflammation with massage therapy, which reduces the pressure on nearby nerve endings and provides pain relief. Massage therapy also helps to flush toxins out of the affected tissue, which allows healthy fluids to flow more freely and allows you to heal.
Electrostimulation
Our chiropractor utilizes electrostimulation, which sends low levels of electrical pulses through the injured tissue and eliminates toxins. The therapy is painless and does not create discomfort. It helps red blood cells that carry more iron and oxygen flow to the injured tissue, which promotes natural healing.
Spinal Adjustments
If you have a back or neck injury that is painful, chiropractic adjustments can help properly align your spine and skeletal structure. When your spine and other skeletal structures are aligned properly, the pressure on injured discs and soft tissue is reduced. Not only that, but the adjustments can also alleviate pain and improve your range of motion.
Physical Medicine Modalities
Physical medicine modalities can be highly beneficial in eliminating any discomfort that you may have due to a car accident injury. Our chiropractors can strengthen the injured tissue as well as your entire body, which will help you recover sooner. Along with that, physical medicine modalities do not require medication or surgery and can help prevent injuries from reoccurring.
