Auto Injury

Auto Injury Assessment & Injury Evaluation

If you’ve been in a car accident, one of the most important steps you can take is to schedule an injury assessment and evaluation. Even if you don’t feel any immediate pain after your accident, you may have sustained injuries that can only be detected with a medical exam and x-rays.

Experts in treating common injuries and trauma resulting from accidents, our pain management team will resolve your pain at its source rather than masking your symptoms with traditional pain management medications and treatments.

Treatment Options for Auto Injury & Personal Injury

Your road to recovery begins with a comprehensive medical examination by our doctors and specialists–experts in personal and auto injury evaluations. Our thorough assessment and diagnostic imaging will detect any injuries–including less visible injuries that, if left untreated, could lead to chronic, debilitating pain. Together, you and your team of providers will design a recovery plan that may include one or more of our specialized accident injury treatments:

Pain Management

Our pain management specialists are committed to resolving your pain at its source rather than simply masking your symptoms with traditional pain management medications and treatments. We recognize the complexities of pain, and partner with you to design a customized pain management plan to identify which of our pain treatments best support your near- and long-term healing.

Regenerative Medicine

Our regenerative medicine therapies help accelerate your rate of healing exponentially by replacing, activating, and renewing tissues damaged or depleted by trauma or injury. The injection of healthy tissue allograft into damaged areas reduces pain and inflammation, and supports the repair of injured tissues and joints.

Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic Treatments

Our chiropractors are experts in diagnosing and treating common back and neck injuries resulting from accidents–such as whiplash, spinal trauma, fractures, and compressed discs. Our extensive chiropractic services include specialized techniques that properly align your body’s musculoskeletal structure–restoring mobility and providing pain relief to your muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue.

Orthopedic Support Bracing

During your injury recovery and rehabilitation process, personally-fitted orthopedic support bracing may be used to help properly align, correct position, support, stabilize, and protect areas of your body as they heal from injury or trauma.

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression therapy provides significant pain relief for injuries to the back, neck, lumbar, and cervical regions. By gently stretching your spine using a traction table or similar motorized device, our providers create negative pressure in your spinal discs, allowing herniated and bulging discs to retract, and reducing nerve pressure. Additionally, the mild pulling and releasing motions of decompression therapy promote the diffusion of oxygen, water, and nutrient-rich fluids, which enables degenerated and torn disc fibers to heal.

Advanced Light Therapy

By directing powerful energy in the form of billions of light photons to injured areas, our advanced light therapy stimulates and accelerates healing and tissue regeneration and restores cellular function–all while reducing inflammation, swelling, pain, and stiffness.

Vibration Therapy

To reduce your pain and promote recovery, our doctors utilize whole body vibration therapy, which uses precise micro-vibrations. The vibrations trigger your body’s natural reflexive response and stimulate responses from your nervous and musculoskeletal systems. The result is increased blood circulation–boosting the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues, reducing pain, and improving muscle function and recovery.
