Injured in a Car Accident in Prior Lake? Here's What You Need to Know About Rehabilitation
All Accidents Matter — Even the “Minor” Ones
At Chirohouse Clinic, we understand that no car accident is truly minor. Even low-speed impacts can cause serious, long-lasting injuries that don’t always show up right away. That’s why early evaluation is so critical—because your spine, nervous system, and long-term health depend on it.
🚗 Why Immediate Care Matters After a Car Accident
The force of an accident—even at just 5–15 MPH—can cause whiplash, soft tissue damage, and spinal misalignment. These injuries may not produce symptoms for days, weeks, or even months. By the time pain shows up, your body has already begun compensating—leading to muscle tightness, poor posture, inflammation, and nerve irritation.
Whiplash injuries involve tearing of soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons) in the neck and upper back, often resulting in instability and nerve interference. Left untreated, this can contribute to chronic pain and dysfunction down the road.
Facts About Whiplash and Low-Impact Accidents
✅ Even 5 MPH of impact can cause spinal damage.
🚫 Most vehicles are built to absorb external damage—but your body isn’t.
⚠️ Whiplash forces occur at 8–10 Gs, even higher if you've had prior injuries.
🧠 Symptoms like headaches, dizziness, numbness, and fatigue are common—and often delayed.
That’s why it’s so important to get checked—whether you feel symptoms or not.
Common Symptoms After a Car Accident:
Neck pain or stiffness
Headaches or migraines
Numbness or tingling in arms or legs
Dizziness, blurred vision, or ringing ears
Jaw or shoulder pain
Fatigue, memory issues, or mood changes
Difficulty concentrating or sleeping
Burning or prickling around the spine
Don’t wait for these symptoms to get worse—early chiropractic care can make all the difference.
