Whether you have been in a car accident, truck accident or motorcycle accident you may have sustained injuries that may cause suffering for the rest of your life. How quickly you get treatment will significantly determine how well you will recover. Whiplash is usually the most common injury from an auto accident. Whiplash is when the motion of your head whipping backward and then forward upon impact causes over extension and tearing of the muscle fibers and the tendons in your neck. These tears will heal with scar tissue over time if untreated. Damage to your shock absorbers between the bones called discs can also be injured producing radiating pain down the arms and legs. This will cause pain, limited range of motion and discomfort that may not present for days or even weeks after your car accident. Headaches, low back pain, numbness and tingling in the arms and legs are other common injuries form an auto accident. Some people wait too long to be evaluated and unfortunately will have lost all their medical benefits. If you have been recently involved in an auto accident, remember the state law requires you to be seen and evaluated within 14 days of the car accident. If not seen, you will lose the medical coverage related to that accident! That is why it is so important not to wait and schedule an appointment with Dr. Ressler right away. This will ensure that you receive the treatment you need for all your injuries, including the ones you may be unaware of.
Dr. Ressler, Oviedo chiropractor years of experience has helped hundreds of patients recover from their car accident injuries. Dr. Ressler will perform a comprehensive neurological, orthopedic and musculoskeletal examination to determine your extent of injuries. He will then determine if you will need diagnostic imaging like X-rays or “MRI” of the areas of concern. X-ray studies can generally determine if any fractures have occurred. MRI” are designed to view soft tissue injuries like whiplash and disc injuries. He will then refer you to a qualified imaging center that will send the report directly to Oviedo Injury and Wellness Center. This will assist Dr. Ressler in developing a specialized treatment plan to address your specific injuries. This will include strengthening/stretching exercises to support the injured tissue, along with chiropractic adjustments to restore the joints back into original position.

Dr. Ressler will perform soft tissue/trigger point release to break up scar tissue and address the aspects of whiplash. Nervous about being adjusted???
