Henderson NV, 06-MARCH-2015 - Anthem Chiropractic and Dr. Derek Day, DC are pleased to announce that chiropractic techniques are able to provide solutions for slip and fall injuries. The Las Vegas chiropractor uses his knowledge and experience to identify and address the injuries which can occur when there is an accident as simple as a slip and fall. Many do not realize the damage to the body which can occur when there is a accident in which the victim slips on something or trips over something and winds up on the floor or the pavement.

A fall can results in bumps and bruises, which are painful enough, but the more serious problem occurs when the victim twists during the fall in an attempt to recover balance. The landing is then completed in an awkward position which can cause subluxations in the spine or misalignment of the extremities. A slip-and-fall event can even cause an injury that is similar to a whiplash. The head moves as a result of the force of the fall and is forced beyond the normal range of motion.

When the muscles are stretched and even torn, the pain may not arise immediately. A whiplash injury, for example, may not be felt for several hours following the injury. For this reason, it is important to schedule a consultation with the chiropractor as soon as possible after the accident. He will be able to determine the location and the extent of the injuries and design a plan to address them.

Therapeutic methods which are typical with this type of injury include massage, heat and cold applications and ultrasound therapy. The chiropractor doesn't use invasive methods or pharmaceuticals to achieve relief from the pain. Instead, the focus is on assisting the body to heal itself.
