How A Peabody, MA Chiropractor Alleviates Slip And Fall Accident Pain

By Darcy Gautreau


Falling down is embarrassing and in bracing for the impact it often causes greater damage. It is too late, after the fact, to think about relaxing into the fall. Now there is the pain and suffering to deal with unless you consider setting up an appointment with a Peabody Chiropractor.

When you arrive at your appointment, they will hand you some forms to fill out. They need your complete medical history, along with a list of drugs you take. Include any previous injuries, too. If your pain is severe, get a friend to take you to the appointment, or call a taxi cab to take you there and back home.

With the paperwork completed, one of the technicians escorts you to an examination room. The doctor arrives and consults with you about where and when it hurts the most. He or she will conduct some range-of-motion tests to determine your mobility and then explain your X-rays to ease your mind.

Not all first visits require a spinal adjustment. The first thing done is typically a massage. This helps your muscles relax and relieves some of the pain. The doctor then does a thorough examination of your spinal column to determine any tenderness and takes notes for future reference.

Exercise and a maintenance schedule are vital to the success of your recovery. There are special exercises designed for each area of the spine and relief of pinched nerves. It is important that you keep your appointments, and call well in advance if you must reschedule.

Chiropractic is a holistic approach to achieving complete health, instead of scheduling surgery or subscribing pain drugs. It is completely non-invasive and in most cases return the patient to their previous height of normal activity. To find out more about how this happens, make an appointment with a prominent chiropractor, today.
