Orlando Chiropractor explains that Chiropractic Massage is two words that mean very different things. Chiropractic refers to the proper alignment of your body, spine and bones. Massage concerns your muscles and tissues. Massage is administered either before or after your adjustment in order to relax and aid with your re-alignment.

Orlando Chiropractor says that often times it is the muscles surrounding your skeleton that are contributing to your lack of alignment. Muscles pull on bones, and over the years this can lead to displacement that causes discomfort and pain. Manipulating muscles and connective tissues can help loosen and unlock them. Loose muscles will pull less on your bones and result in less distortion in your frame.  Proper alignment helps to ensure the free flow of nerve impulses and circulation of blood and lymph.

Massage helps reduce stress, blood pressure, and decrease muscle spasms and cramping that are due to an injury. It also helps relax the muscles so your body can become more receptive to the adjustments you receive.

Orlando Chiropractor says that each year, 2 million people suffer from whiplash related to car accidents in the United States.Many rear impact car accidents result in a condition called “whiplash”. This forces the bones of the lower cervical spine (the neck) into hyper-extension (backward bending motion) while the bones of the upper neck are suddenly thrust into hyper-flexion (forward bending motion). A sudden, adnormal motion to a sensitive region like the neck causes damage to the soft tissue (ligaments and muscles) of the cervical spine. This leads to inflammation and pain.

The most common symptoms related to whiplash include:
* Headaches
* Neck pain and stiffness
* Shoulder pain
* Dizziness
* Jaw pain
* Arm pain/ weakness/ tingling
* Back pain

Studies strongly support the use of stretching/ strengthening exercises and mobilizations. Also, treatment with Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy was less expensive in the long run and reduces long-term disability compared to other treatment options.

Orlando Chiropractor says exercise plays a big role in recovery. Simple neck and shoulder exercises are safe and effective. Stretching, strengthening and coordinating exercises should be done regularly each day. Some soreness after exercise is to be expected, and is not a cause for concern.

Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy have been shown to be the best choice to decrease pain, improve mobility and help you return to your normal daily activities after a car accident.

Orlando Chiropractor says that if you’ve been in an auto accident, then you know the confusion caused by such an incident. Even after the immediate concerns over and the primary issues are handled, a recent auto accident will continue to take away from your time and attention because of all the other factors related to the accident- Such as dealing with the insurance claim adjusters, car repairs, lost time from work, and so on…

The unique nature of injuries sustained in an accident can cause some significant health problems down the line. There are two types of injuries following an automobile accident. The first type are injuries which become apparent immediately after the accident, or within a few days after the accident. These can range in terms of severity. However, it is important to remember that any symptom is a signal from your body that something is wrong, regardless of severity. In fact, it is possible to have an injury resulting from an auto accident and not have any symptoms, initially, or for many weeks or months.

The second type of injury is a delayed injury. It may not be apparent at first, but the symptoms can appear many days, weeks or even moths later. Common symptoms which show up in a delayed fashion include headaches, neck pain, low back pain and pain between the shoulders.
Following an accident, if you have even slight symptoms or think that you might have been injured, you should have a thorough health evaluation by a health care provider who is experienced in handling auto injuries. Getting a deficit in your health documented following an accident is very important. Symptoms can linger for long periods of time or even show up months later.

The dirty little secret of the insurance industry is the fact that they know the severe impact that even minor auto accidents can have on the long term health and well being of their clients. Because this act can be a large financial liability for the insurance company, they will do everything possible to wrap up a claim quickly, or avoid a claim all together. This creates a scenario where what is in your auto insurance company’s best interest is directly opposed to what is in Your best interest.

Orlando Chiropractor says that the most valuable resource you have is your health. Without your health, all other goals and activities become difficult or unattainable.

Orlando Chiropractor explains that exercise, by definition, means purposeful movement. Although many kinds of exercise for the spine exist, certain exercises may not be necessarily therapeutic for you. Spinal exercise prescription for your condition is based upon the stage of your condition (acute, chronic, settled), the type of condition (soft tissue injury, mechanical, disc, nerve injury), and your age. Remember, an exercise prescription is just that; its a prescription. Very little benefit will be obtained with nonspecific, over the counter exercise programs. In fact, some of these programs may be harmful to your back or neck.

The purposes of therapeutic exercise prescription are to:
*Increase muscular flexibility
*Normalize and balance muscle tone by increasing oxygen rich blood flow to the tissue.
*Integrate muscle activity.
*Restore functional movement.
*Restore functional muscle strength and endurance.
*Decrease pain.
*Minimize the chances of reoccurrence.

Orlando Chiropractor explains whiplash as a soft tissue injury to the neck; also called neck sprain or strain. It is characterized by a collection of symptoms that occur following damage to the neck, usually because of sudden extension and flexion. The disorder commonly occurs as the result of an automobile accident and may include injury to intervertebral joints, discs, and ligaments, cervical muscles and nerve roots. Symptoms such as neck pain may be present directly after the injury or may be delayed for several days. Orlando Chiropractor says that in addition to neck pain, other symptoms may include neck stiffness, injuries to the muscles and ligaments (myofascial injuries), headache, dizziness, abnormal sensations such as burning or prickling (paresthesias), or shoulder or back pain. In addition, some people experience cognitive, somatic, or physiological conditions such as memory loss, concentration impairment, nervousness/irritability, sleep disturbances, fatigue, or depression.
