Weston Neck Injury Treatment

The neck is a complex network of bones, muscles, nerves, ligaments, tendons, and joints. Injury to any of these components can cause significant pain and compromise your ability to perform everyday tasks.

Neck injuries can occur due to a serious car accident or something as mundane as sleeping in an odd position. Regardless of the cause, chiropractic treatment and physiotherapy can help reduce the effects of a neck injury. The physicians at Specific Care Chiropractic have the knowledge and experience necessary to establish an effective Weston neck injury treatment plan.

We Offer Treatment for Numerous Neck Injuries

Our team has spent over 20 years working with neck injury victims. We know that everyone reacts differently to chiropractic and physical therapy treatments, so we can conduct thorough diagnostics during your first visit, including a physical examination, X-rays, and other detailed imaging.

We have experience taking care of patients with various neck injuries, including: 

  • Slipped discs
  • Sprains and strains
  • Compressed discs
  • Pinched nerves
  • Whiplash
  • Broken vertebrae
  • Spinal cord damage

The neck is a highly sensitive area, so we focus on your safety and health throughout the treatment process. Using a combination of evidence-based chiropractic methods and physiotherapy techniques, we identify the source of your injury and focus on the injured area without placing any additional stress on surrounding tissues.

Neck Injuries Can Cause Severe Long-Term Pain and Discomfort

While neck injuries may seem mild at first, left untreated, they can cause debilitating pain and reduce your mobility. If your injury occurred as a result of a car accident or fall, you may not even realize you have had a neck injury for several days.

You may suffer from the following symptoms, per Mayo Clinic:

  • Constant pain
  • Pain when your neck is in a certain position
  • Headaches 
  • Stiffness and reduced neck mobility
  • Muscle spasms and tightness in the neck

Such symptoms may also occur when you have a neck injury due to chronic repetitive motion, poor posture, and other non-traumatic causes. No matter the cause, if you suffer any of the above symptoms of neck injury, seek treatment right away. Neck injuries left untreated can progress, causing spinal damage, nerve damage, and even paralysis.

Our Step-By-Step Weston Neck Injury Treatment Plan

At Specific Care Chiropractic, we have established a thorough step-by-step treatment plan to address every part of the recovery process. 

Acute Phase

The acute phase of your rehabilitation plan focuses on pain management and reduction. Using extreme care and attention, we may administer chiropractic adjustments to realign your neck.

Rehabilitation Phase

This phase is usually the most intensive and takes the longest. In our Rehabilitation Room, our licensed practitioners can train you in exercises to stretch and strengthen your neck muscles.

They may use massage therapy, electrical stimulation, and other physical therapies to improve your mobility and treat pain. This step in the process can be painful, and it is common to experience setbacks and flare-ups as your neck becomes stronger and more functional.

Strengthening Phase

Once the rehabilitation phase is complete, you should be in less pain and have a similar level of mobility you had prior to your neck injury. Our doctors can shift the focus to strengthening your neck and accessory muscles to further bolster your health and reduce the potential for long-term issues associated with your neck injury. 

Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI) Phase 

The final phase of your rehabilitation is the maximum medical improvement (MMI) phase. During this phase, we confirm that your recovery meets medical standards for complete recovery.

Our goal at Specific Care Chiropractic is to tailor your treatment plan to significantly reduce or eliminate pain and discomfort associated with your neck injury. At the same time, we aim to enhance your mobility as much as possible, so you can return to the life you had before your injury.

Pursuing Legal Action After a Neck Injury Accident in Weston

Many neck injuries result from accidents, and those accidents stem from negligence. If you sustained a neck injury because of someone else’s negligence, you could seek compensation for your medical treatment, pain and suffering, and other costs. Our team can help you find an attorney to represent you in a personal injury claim if you do not have one already. 

We can work with your lawyer to ensure they have all the medical documentation they need to support your personal injury claim. Documents we can provide with your permission include:

  • X-rays and other imaging
  • Medical analysis
  • Diagnostics results
  • Treatment methods and timeline
  • Potential long-term effects of your neck injury
  • Invoices detailing your treatment costs

While personal injury claimants may receive a settlement to cover the cost of their treatment, we can offer other payment options—regardless of your reason for coming to us.
