REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Sept. 11, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Awender Chiropractic would like to alert Redwood City and nearby residents who have been in an auto accident about their chiropractic services for treating common auto accident injuries.  An auto accident can be a devastating blow to health and quality of life. Even a minor accident can bring with it problems like whiplash, concussion, herniated disc, neck pain, back pain and back injuries. Fortunately, chiropractic treatments can help with healing and recovery for all of these auto accident issues, reports Awender Chiropractic.

Auto accident victims should also be aware that symptoms of injuries may not appear for weeks or months after the initial impact has occurred. A visit to a Redwood City chiropractor can help in gaining a comprehensive understanding of what has happened so that preventative measures can be taken.

At Awender Chiropractic, clients are assessed and treated holistically, not just symptom by symptom. While pain relief is a natural byproduct of chiropractic treatments, the goal is to get to the root of the issues so that effective, long-lasting relief and a high quality of life can be restored.

Whiplash is extremely common after an automobile accident and includes neck pain that can radiate to the shoulders and back. Other whiplash symptoms include headaches, muscle spasms, swelling, and tingling or numbness in the arms. Some clients experience nausea, blurred vision and dizziness.

Trauma to the spine following an auto accident can damage muscles, nerves and the spinal vertebrae. It’s important to receive an accurate diagnosis early so that the best course of action can be taken.

Back pain can include disc pain, joint pain and headaches. While seat belts save lives, they can also cause tissue and nerve damage after a car accident. Massage therapy can assist with relieving the anxiety, stress and tension that can accumulate in the body following an auto accident.

Dr. Joseph E. Awender II is in his third decade of practice as a chiropractor and assists a high volume of auto accident victims. His education at the Spine Research Institute of San Diego with Masters’ Certification and Mandates of Personal Injury Litigation work have made him well versed in the field of personal injury. This translates into effective chiropractic care for those suffering from auto accident injuries.

Dr. Awender says, “Chiropractic adjustment and alignment can be essential to getting on the road to healing after an auto accident. We also offer spinal decompression and other highly effective techniques.”
