Were you in your disabled car, waiting for a tow truck, when somebody struck your vehicle from behind? Were you struck by a car when you were changing a flat tire?
If any of those situations apply to you, you should call County Line Chiropractic to schedule an appointment as soon as possible. Even if you don’t feel any pain right after the accident, you may be suffering whiplash or other injuries that will cause pain within a few days of the accident. If you are experiencing back or neck pain, we can set you on a healing journey as soon as today.
Did you know more than 14,000 people are injured each year in crashes involving a disabled vehicle where visibility was probably a factor? Additionally, nearly 600 people a year are killed in these types of accidents.

Most Common Car Accident Injuries
Some of the most common car accident injuries include:
Whiplash is pain in the neck and shoulders caused by your head suddenly moving backward, then forward during an auto accident.
Back injuries include herniated disks caused by intense, rapid force.
Neck injuries may be the result of pinched nerves caused by the force of the accident.
Broken bones can be caused by your body or limbs hitting objects during the accident.
Head injuries like a concussion can cause headaches, memory loss, irritability, and more.
Brain injuries can change how your brain functions and pose a serious threat.
Spinal cord injuries may cause partial or full paralysis or problems moving some other body parts. These damages may be permanent or temporary.
How Does Chiropractic Care Help After an Accident?
Accidents at speeds as low as 5 mph can knock your spine out of alignment, and chiropractic care helps put your vertebrae back into place, relieving pain. Chiropractic care may also help reduce inflammation, restore your range of motion, and reduce scar tissue. All this and it’s non-invasive and holistic, too!
