Fort Worth Auto Injury Treatments & Pain Relief
Read Patient Stories on How Board Certified Atlas Orthogonist Dr. Michlin Has Treated Their Pain
Ft. Worth Auto Injury Pain Relieved By Chiropractic Care
The common Ft. Worth auto injury of whiplash is caused by the violent and sudden motion of the head being thrust in any direction. Immediate symptoms often include neck pain, headache, migraine and back pain although, if left untreated, more severe conditions can develop, such as sciatica, abnormal blood pressure and Fibromyalgia.
Many Fort Worth auto injuries include a misalignment of the Atlas vertebra, which is the topmost cervical vertebra that supports the head. The 3-ounce bone has a tough enough job regularly supporting the head, which typically weighs between 9 and 17 pounds, but its job becomes even tougher when the bone is jostled out of place. Our Fort Worth office has the only Board Certified Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractor in North Texas, who focuses on the re-alignment of the Atlas vertebra.
Dr. Michlin employs the Atlas Orthogonal Adjusting Instrument, a gentle, percussion instrument specifically designed to guide the Atlas vertebra into place.
If the Atlas vertebra remains out of place, the misalignment can cause the entire spine to mis-align. This puts pressure on the spinal nerves that can cause headaches, migraine, neck pain and back pain as well as forces the body to compensate for the misalignment, often resulting in sciatica, blood pressure abnormalities, or the appearance of one leg being shorter than the other.
Other treatments we offer for Fort Worth auto injuries include full spinal adjustments, spinal decompression, Cox Flection Distraction and soft tissue percussion; treatments that can help spinal issues brought about by any cause, such as fibromyalgia.
