Auto Injury: The Ripple Affect

An Atlanta Chiropractor comments:

We all know the scary scenario: tires screaching, broken glass, confusion, then finally comprehension. Living in a metropolitan area such as Atlanta only increases our changes of becoming the victim of an auto accident and auto injury.  While the importance of being an alert and responsible driver cannot be under estimated, we know that, as they say, "It takes two to tango," or "collide" in this case.

So what do you do after the insurance information has been exchanged, the tow trucks have gone, and you are left with aching back pain, neck pain, headache, or worse, full fledged whiplash?  This can be the most traumatic time for auto accident victims.  "What will I do for a car? How will I get to work? How can I even GO to work? I can barely turn my head!"

The first thing to do is take a deep breath.  The next thing you can do to get help with your auto injury is contact your local Atlanta Chiropractor, Dr. Senft.  At Senft chiropractic Atlanta, we know how auto accidents can totally take your life off track, especially if there is an auto injury involved. We are here to help you every step of the way and can even refer you to experienced attorneys who will make sure that you get the coverage that you need to get your life back on track.

"That's nice, but I'm not showing any signs of an auto injury..."

There are many cases where the symptoms of an auto injury are not seen for days and in some cases years down the road! While that may seem unbelievable, if your soft tissue (muscles, ligaments and tendons) heal improperly, you are putting yourself at risk for long term problems such as arthritis and chronic pain. Rather than take such a huge and preventable risk with your well being, please seek the care from an experienced Atlanta chiropractor.
