Encinitas & Cardiff By The Sea Chiropractor Aids in Personal Injury Rehabilitation

Personal injury can affect your day-to-day life and restrict you from participating in activities you once enjoyed. Traditional medical doctors may help you with pain management, but are likely to provide little support for healing or improving the cause of your discomfort. At our Cardiff By The Sea & Encinitas chiropractor clinic, we strive to not only eliminate neck and back pain, but also to treat the very cause of your discomfort so you can return to your previous pain-free life.


We often see and treat victims of car accidents who experience neck or back pain from whiplash or a recurring headache due to spinal subluxations. Sports injuries are another common form of injury that we treat. Common conditions related to personal injury and  exertion include strained muscles, tendons and ligaments, as well as misalignment.

The work place represents another place where injuries are common. Some people think work accidents only occur in occupations that require heavy lifting, use of heavy machinery or other perilous activities. However, a work place accident can occur anywhere. Employees may slip and fall or develop trauma due to repetitious motions. Carpal tunnel syndrome, for example, affects thousands of people every year. The government classifies carpal tunnel syndrome as an illness associated with repeated trauma. The illness typically affects individuals who work with repetitive motions, such as at a computer keyboard or in the manufacturing industry.

People who suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome may experience pain, tingling, numbness or muscle damage in the hand due to increased pressure on the median nerve of the wrist.  By visiting a chiropractor, however, individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome may experience improved range of motion and better muscle function. At our office, we offer massage therapy and manipulation of the spine, elbow and wrist to provide relief to carpal tunnel patients.

Personal Injury Solutions

A chiropractor can help personal injury victims in the rehabilitation process by using a variety of non-invasive techniques to correct problems in the muskuloskeletal system. Whether you've been involved in a car collision, work place accident or were the victim of a sports-related injury, we have multiple ways of effectively treating your condition.

When you first visit our office, we will conduct a full analysis of your condition as it relates to your lifestyle. Using the information from your first consultation, we will determine the most effective way to alleviate you of back pain and discomfort, as well as the injury causing it. Some of the tools we use to help our Encinitas patients include spinal adjustment, massage therapy and whole body vibration therapy on our state of the art Pettibon Spinal Rejuvenation Therapy Table, which provides expedited decompression of the discs in the spine - offering fast pain relief to patients suffering from back pain.

For example, if you have a recurring headache or migraine that interferes with your daily life, we will do more than offer pain-killers. Instead, we will determine the cause of the headache - whether that be poor alignment, diet, nutritional deficiencies, stress, muscle spasms or an underlying injury. We will then present a customized treatment plan designed to both eliminate the headache and prevent it from returning in the future.
