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

By Darcy Gautreau


Accidents can happen anywhere, including stepping on shed pet hair and your foot slips out from under you. At first, you notice nothing more than a bruised pride but later the pain sets in. It is time to seek out a Peabody Chiropractor to investigate the damage and bring relief from pain.

There is nothing to fear once you get to your appointment. They want the same information as any doctor that includes your medical history, list of drugs and any previous injuries. If you are in severe pain, call a taxi cab to take you there and back home, or get a friend to help you.

After the doctor reads your information, one of the assistants will guide you to the examination room. The doctor consults with you and then conducts some range-of-motion tests. This helps determine the extent of damage and focus on the affected areas. The doctor explains the X-rays, so you know the extent of damage.

In most cases, a massage proves valuable in relaxing the patient and relieving some of the pain. Then, the doctor does a physical examination of your spinal column to determine tender areas. Your first appointment does not always include a spinal adjustment. Other possibilities including traction often manage the problem

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.

Anyone can fall and hurt themselves, and most of the time there is no damage. However, when pain ensues, and you are unable to live your normal life, it is time to seek out the benefits of holistic care through a qualified and experienced chiropractor.
