Personal Injury Chiropractor at Optimal Health Chiropractic and Massage Clinic

A personal injury chiropractor is a chiropractor who dedicates a significant portion of their time to treating patients who have suffered a personal injury. Our Edmonds chiropractors typically focus on injuries that involve trauma to the musculoskeletal system since that is what chiropractors treat. 

It is important to see a personal injury chiropractor not only because they can treat your injuries, but because they have high familiarity with the legal aspects of personal injury. For example, a personal injury chiropractor knows how to work with workers' compensation if the injury happened at work, and knows how to put together a medical testimony if you were injured in an auto accident and filing a legal claim.

How Our Edmonds Chiropractors Can Help Treat Personal Injury

Our chiropractor starts by evaluating your injuries and developing a treatment plan that is unique to your injuries, your body, and your level of pain. We will take your health history and complete medical records, which can be used in a personal injury lawsuit. 

Our treatment begins with gentle chiropractic adjustments to relieve muscle strain, sprain, and pressure. Our alignments improve circulation, reduce inflammation naturally, and promote nervous system health. Through our series of adjustments, your injury pain will subside naturally. 

After we restore your musculoskeletal alignment, we will restore range of motion and mobility to affected muscles. Once you are rehabilitated, we will perform only the occasional "tune up" so your body is healthy and injury-free.
