Auto Accident Chiropractic
Auto Accident Chiropractic in Tustin
The most common auto accident injury is whiplash, which occurs when your spine—from your neck to your low back—goes through a “whipping” motion in one direction and then the opposite direction, overstretching the ligaments. Injuries to muscles, nerves, and discs are also common, as are sprain/strain injuries to other joints of the body.
Fractures and concussions are other injuries that require a proper diagnosis.
Dr. Azizi will sit down and talk with you about the accident and your injuries. Then, he will conduct a thorough examination, including orthopedic and neurological assessments and X-rays. If he determines that additional imaging, such as specialized X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans, is needed, he will refer you out for those.
Based on your exam and images, Dr. Azizi will create a customized care plan to address your injuries and get you back to your pre-accident status or as close as possible. He will also work with your other providers, including physical therapists, orthopedists, neurologists, and pain management doctors.
