No matter your injury, your body can heal itself in unusual ways. For the most part, it's best to let the body do its thing and simply reduce the chances of future injuries. Get a cast if you need it, avoid infections, and take any life-threatening injuries to a hospital or an otherwise well-equipped medical center.
Wellness awaits you at Cutitta Chiropractic in the Pittsburgh and Lawrenceville areas of PA. From whole-body treatment that addresses your injury to getting the documentation you need for compensation claims, Cutitta's well-trained and caring team is ready to help.
Take a look at a few ways that a chiropractor can bring you closer to recovery.
When you experience pain from a personal injury that lasts longer than expected, answers are needed. A chiropractor can guide you toward information and treatment options specific to your injury type.
Depending on what caused your injury, a few complications could leave lasting pain. It's often because your body is compensating for the injury; muscles tighten in some places to protect the damaged area, while you may subconsciously put more strain on other parts of the body.
Think of a limp. If you injure your foot, you'll consciously and subconsciously avoid putting additional weight on the foot. It's obvious and apparent, and you can feel the change in balance. There are ways that your muscle groups, nerves, and even internal organs compensate and shift without you knowing the logic behind it.
Chiropractic uses various adjustments, therapy, and mental health techniques to solve the problem.
