It is important because of the many injuries usually associated with such collisions. In fact, some of them may not be immediately noticeable but may have tremendous effects on your health and body in the long run. If you have been in an auto accident and are suffering from neck pain, back pain, or other symptoms, the doctors at Honolulu Pain Relief Center aim to help you make these important decisions through this article.

There are various factors which determine the types of auto accident injuries. Some of these factors are the size of the cars involved in the accident, the speed of both the cars, the headrest position during the accident, and the bracing for impact. However, the magnitude of the collision does not always have an effect on the severity of the ensuing injury. This is why even many minor accidents have also ended up with severe damage to the nervous, spine, and other body systems.

Whiplash is very common in car accidents along with cuts, broken bones, muscular or ligament damage, concussions, and internal injuries. People are of the general impression that injuries arising from an automobile accident are either noticeable or recognized during the first few days or weeks after an incident.However, this does not always stand true. In fact, the opposite is true. It is this notion that leads to some of the most serious injuries getting overlooked after the accident. This notion and ignorance increase the need and necessity of undergoing a complete evaluation by the Honolulu Pain Relief Center in Honolulu, HI team if you get involved in an accident.

No matter if you were involved in a minor or major car accident, if you experience any back pain, or pain in your neck, or even your head, you have the right and necessity of receiving treatment.

Care After Auto Accidents

Generally, the impact of injury after any automobile accident leads to multiple damage of tissues and structures related to the spine. All this muscular, osseous and ligamentous damage thus creates an uneven pull on the spine.

If these injuries are not taken care of and allowed to persist and you do not give it its required appropriate treatment, you may end up with loads of neurological problems which manifest itself over the following years.

In addition to this, the uneven pull of the spine also tends to limit the normal back motion which in turn leads to early signs of degeneration and many other disease processes. This is where the chiropractors at Honolulu Pain Relief Center come into help.

Auto Accident Chiropractor

Following a car accident, most individuals assume they have not incurred severe injuries. After a few weeks, however, these individuals start complaining of back pain. The most common type of car injury received by chiropractors at the Honolulu Pain Relief Center is whiplash: it comes about when the head is tossed back and forth or sideways during an accident. Classic symptoms include headaches and migraines, neck pain, blurred vision, shoulder pain, and ringing in the ears.

Car injuries can also cause severe back pain injury. The twisting and turning of the body during an accident can result in a herniated disk, sprains and strains, or a spinal misalignment, which can exert pressure on the nerves, and consequently, affect other parts of the body. Honolulu auto accident chiropractors perform thorough examination procedures on accident victims, and then come up with personalized care plans. The program may combine spinal care with massage therapy and other treatment modalities, such as ice/heat therapy to offer all-inclusive rehabilitative care.

No-Fault Insurance Chiropractor

No fault insurance means an insurer pays for part or all of the medical expenses accrued in case an accident occurs. What makes this type of insurance unique is even if the insured party caused the accident, compensation would be approved. At Honolulu Pain Relief Center we accept all Hawaii No Fault Auto Insurances.

Geico    Farmers     State Farm   USAA     Island Insurance  

Travelers     Liberty Mutual   Progressive ELCO  

Allstate     DTRIC      First Insurance     AAA

We also accept:

HMSA      Blue Cross Blue Shield     HMAA      Aetna      Cigna     

United Health Care 

Workers Compensation 

                                                           

       

 

However, since in some states, for example, Michigan, the law does not require insurance agencies to compensate the chiropractic services rendered, a claim can be compensated if it is deemed “reasonable and necessary.” A person can, therefore, use his no fault insurance claim to receive chiropractic services from the Honolulu Pain Relief Center. All an individual has to do to qualify for insurance compensation is acquire proof showing that chiropractic care can actually temper back pain problems, which has been made readily available by extensive research that particular area.

The General Chiropractic Council defines chiropractic as a health profession that deals with diagnosing, treating, and preventing mechanical complications of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects these complications have on the overall functioning of the nervous system and general well-being. Chiropractic is premised on the belief that spinal manipulations help improve the body’s nervous system, and, as a result, trigger natural healing.

Chiropractors at the Honolulu Pain Relief Center use their hands to adjust a person’s joints while paying close attention to his or her spine: this process is referred to as manipulation. Before commencing treatment, chiropractic professionals study an individual’s medical history, personal circumstances, and lifestyle. They use this data to establish the suitability of manipulation on the patient’s body: individuals with conditions such as bone cancer or spinal damage cannot undergo chiropractic adjustments.

Honolulu Chiropractors are experienced in providing spinal health care to relieve a broad range of musculoskeletal disorders: neck pain, back pain, and migraines, which are often caused by automobile accidents.
