Many patients experience headaches after they have been in a car accident. If you bumped your head on the windshield or were hit harshly from behind, headaches can be an auto accident injury that you struggle with. At White Plains Chiropractic Wellness in White Plains, NY, Dr. Sutera provides headache treatment through a variety of chiropractic treatment modalities. If you have been in a car accident and are in pain, it's time to learn about how a chiropractor can assist with your healing.

Chiropractic Care for Headaches

Dr. Sutera will check the alignment of your cervical spine and address any areas of compression or misalignment using spinal adjustments and decompression techniques. Headaches are common after a car accident, they may be caused by tight muscles, cervical spine misalignment, and strain on your tendons and ligaments. Chiropractic care is focused on getting your spine properly aligned and reducing your inflammation. Massage, electrical muscle stimulation, or ultrasound can be used to improve circulation to the area and reduce inflammation.

Your Chiropractic Treatment for Headaches

Chiropractic care is cumulative and this means consistent treatment is the best way for you to heal from headaches after a car accident. Treatment should be two or three times a week in the early stages of your recovery and can taper down slowly over a few months. As your symptoms improve, you will discover that you have fewer headaches between sessions. You can see other treatment providers for your headaches at the same time since chiropractic care will not interfere.
