For many people, chiropractic care is the optimal option to treat personal injuries. Dr. Kelch at Absolute Wellness in Peoria offers personal injury care that does not rely on pain medication or invasive procedures like surgery to produce results. Let’s take a look at some of the common injuries treated by our chiropractor.
Whiplash
Whiplash is associated with hyperextension and hyperflexion of the neck. This kind of injury, commonly associated with car accidents, may cause damage to the ligaments, tendons, and muscles in the neck and shoulders. As a result, your head may not get the support that it needs and your range of motion becomes limited.
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain often results from auto accidents, sports injuries, and other personal injuries. Our chiropractor will resolve your shoulder pain by first performing a thorough exam and then creating a customized treatment plan designed to provide pain relief and support the healing process.
Back Pain
Lower and upper back pain is often caused by stress, poor posture, and injuries. We will help you build strength in your weak muscles and make sure your back is in proper alignment.
Knee Pain
Knee pain often results from auto accidents, work injuries, and other personal injuries. Knee pain is treated with laser therapy, heat therapy, and massage. Before administering any treatment plan, our chiropractor will examine the area to find the root cause of your pain.
Repetitive Use Injuries
Repetitive use injuries are often the result of a work injury. These injuries include tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other debilitating conditions. A variety of treatment modalities can be used to address the problem and prevent the pain from recurring.
