Chiropractor in Decatur, GA

In preparation for your Complimentary Chiropractic Consultation, you will be asked to complete forms that provide background information about your medical history, current condition, and symptoms you are experiencing.

Some of the questions include:

• When and how did the pain start?
• Did the pain start as a result of an injury? It is crucial to know if the physical damage resulted directly from a Car Accident so that proper documentation can be taken.
• Where is the pain located?
• What actions or circumstances make the pain better or worse?
• Describe the type of pain. Is it sharp, dull, burning, or throbbing? Does it come and go, or is it continual?

Your Exam With Dr. Vogel

Once we understand more about your medical history, the doctor will conduct a comprehensive series of tests that include a full chiropractic exam, blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and reflexes, as well as specific neurological and orthopedic tests to assess:

• Range of motion of the affected body area(s)
• Postural Stability and Body Control
• Muscle Strength
• Neurological Integrity
• Muscle Tone

Diagnostic Studies Provide Necessary Detail

Based on your exam results and previous medical history, diagnostic studies will be ordered by the doctor. This is done to determine structural abnormalities for more accurately diagnosing your condition. This provides compelling evidence to the insurance company to prove why you need chiropractic treatment after an automobile accident. This evidence also helps with obtaining an attorney referral.

The most common diagnostic studies ordered during your chiropractic exam include:

• An X-ray exam
• Other laboratory tests, if necessary
• Potential outside referral for an MRI 

Goals and Report of Findings

Our Decatur Chiropractor will develop specific goals based on the X-ray and exam findings for your individualized plan of care:

• Short-term goals include a consistent reduction of pain and the restoration of normal joint function and muscle balance. 
• Long-term goals are about restoring functional independence and tolerance to normal activities of daily living.

When you are involved in a car accident, dizziness, headaches, insomnia, numbing, stiffness, memory problems, low back pain, and neck pain are common symptoms that can continue for months or even years if not corrected.

If you don't find the right doctor near you, that pain will begin to affect your quality of life dramatically.

That's what makes finding a skilled Chiropractor who has a history of working with auto accident and personal injury victims so critical.

In fact, many people are beginning to realize that chiropractic care treatments produce the most accelerated and longest-lasting results following an auto accident injury.

At Arrowhead Clinics, we have been serving the Decatur, GA community with the highest standard of chiropractic care for over 40 years!

Chiropractors perform spinal adjustments by applying a precise force to a specific part of the spinal section to correct the underlying misalignment problem.

This permits healthy nerve transmission and aids your body to recuperate on its own, naturally!

What is the Cracking Sound You Hear During a Chiropractic Adjustment?

Adjusting a spinal segment may (but doesn't always) release a gas bubble between the joints called cavitation, which makes a popping sound.

The same thing occurs when you “crack” your knuckles.

This normal noise is caused by a sudden decrease in pressure within the joint, which results in dissolved gasses in the joint fluid being naturally released. It is completely harmless and usually very relieving.

Let's Get You Out of Pain Today

The postural correction, muscle rebalancing, and pain management protocols we use at our Decatur Chiropractic office change how people recover from car accidents or back pain injuries.

Chiropractic pain management at Arrowhead Clinic's Decatur, GA office is well suited for car accident victims, workplace accident victims, slip and fall victims, and back pain injuries. Our non-invasive approach to care is gentle, safe, targeted to your pain area, and always all-natural.

This is why our patients get regular referrals from their primary care physicians to come into our office to get checked out.

The goal is to help your body restore its natural flexibility and mobility while at the same time alleviating residual stiffness, achiness, and soreness.

Our patients consistently see a drastic reduction in acute pain symptoms and inflammation during their first few visits, increased neck and lower back ranges of motion, elevated mental clarity, and better quality sleep.

We achieve these results without harmful muscle relaxers, potentially dangerous therapies, or potent narcotics but with:

- Spinal decompression therapy which uses intermittent spinal traction to take the stress off injured vertebral joints while concurrently hydrating your discs.

- Chiropractic adjustments to facilitate proper motion in the joints.

- Electrical stimulation to reduce muscular and nerve pain in localized areas.

Some of those spinal manipulation techniques might include:

- Flexion-Distraction Technique- This is a gentle, hands-on spinal manipulation that involves a pumping action on the intervertebral disc instead of direct force.

- Instrument-Assisted Manipulation-This uses a hand-held instrument to allow your chiropractor to apply force without thrusting into the spine.

- Specific Spinal Manipulation- Helps restore joint movement using a gentle thrusting technique.
