At Dixie Chiropractic & Rehab, we specialize in personal injury and auto injury treatment. We believe that a chiropractor is a health care professional that should focus primarily upon the interactions of the spine and nervous system as well as disorders of musculoskeletal system and general health.
As chiropractors, we look at the body as a whole organism. We strive to give you not only health care advice, but nutritional, physical, and life style choices to optimize your body after your accident. Every cell, tissue, muscle and organ of your entire body is controlled by the nervous system and is affected by problems stemming from personal injury.

If you've ever been involved in a motor vehicle accident - even a seemingly minor "fender bender"- you know that it can be an overwhelming and stressful experience. One day you're driving home from work or you're out running errands and the next thing you know you hear the screeching of brakes. Your heart begins to beat rapidly and adrenaline begins pumping through your veins.
Whiplash is a common ailment most people will face in their lifetime. It is true that most severe whiplash injuries are caused by automobile accidents, mainly rear-end collisions, but they are also caused by slips/falls, sports injuries and work related injuries. The term whiplash comes from the motion that the head and neck go through due to a sudden jolt or impact causing the head to suddenly go forward or backward.
A common reason many patients seek chiropractic care is due to sharp lowerback that radiates into the buttock or down the leg. This pain presentation is called sciatica or sciatic nerve pain. This condition is caused by pressure on the nerve by a herniated disc, bone spur or narrowing of the foramen which leads to inflammation.

Often times patients use the terms disc bulge, disc herniation, slipped disc interchangeably. Although they do involve the same structures of the spine, these conditions are different. In order to properly explain the differences, its important to understand the structures in the body we are talking about.
