When it comes to car accident injury care, in almost all cases, there is little-to-no pain involved in a chiropractic adjustment. Quite the opposite, in fact. You may feel some pressure and tension, and then some painless pops and cracks as your vertebrae are set back into their proper alignment. You may also feel relief in certain muscles, as misalignments in the vertebrae cause tension in the muscles branching off from them. After an adjustment, you may feel a bit lightheaded, which is perfectly normal and goes away on its own. Some people also feel a slight soreness akin to something you’d feel after a light workout. This makes sense, as a chiropractic adjustment doesn’t just require work on the part of the auto accident injury doctor performing the adjustment—readjustments in the vertebrae and muscles of your own body are a form of work as well. That said, overall, you can expect an overall sense of relaxation and alleviation of pain, along with an increased range of motion, more energy, and a clearer mind.
