Head Pain, Auto Injury and How Chiropractic Treatment Can Help

We deal with many car crash cases in our Saint Paul office, and a common symptom we see in our patients is headache. The key to recovering from headache caused by a crash is to understand the root cause of the problem and how chiropractic care can help. Chiropractic care in Saint Paul can be very helpful for headache symptoms after a crash.

How Head Pain Is Caused by Auto Injury and How Dr. Slater Can Help You

There are many different types of headache. Headache that's caused by a car accident, though, typically begins as tension or strain in the muscles of the neck. In a wreck, the neck muscles can be torn, which causes inflammation and soreness. These types of headache can be felt in different places, including the back of the head or even the forehead.

Another common cause of pain after a collision that we see in our Saint Paul office is cervicogenic headache, or headaches that start in injured ligaments of the neck. Ligament injury is quite common after a crash, and it's important to get therapy for this type of problem to prevent the creation of scar tissue.
