At the Advanced Wellness Centre, chiropractors Dr. Bryan Lowry and Dr. William Roodman are offering new options and improved assistance for patients who have experienced a recent auto accident injury. Dr. Lowry and Dr. Roodman have been treating auto accident injury patients in Richmond since 1989 and continue staying abreast of the current and emergent science in providing complete care for auto accident victims by offering help with legal referral services as well as expanded examination and treatment options for auto accident injuries, soft tissue injuries, and whiplash.
The symptoms of back pain, neck pain, and headaches often result after someone has gotten into an auto accident. Whiplash is a common soft tissue injury after an auto accident and is caused by the tremendous force absorbed by a person’s body when two automobiles impact each other. The term whiplash describes a whole range of injuries that affect the neck and body because of the momentum snapping you forward and then back in quick succession. Whiplash symptoms can range from minor neck and back pain and stiffness all the way to extreme cases such as chronic pain, headaches, concussion, spinal cord injury, fractures, or dislocation.

According to the Insurance Research Council, 85% of automobile accident injuries involve injuries to the ligaments which hold the skeletal system together. The American Medical Association (AMA) has issued a clear directive on ligament injuries - ligament injuries need to be measured and quantified with exacting precision. Our model for arriving at an accurate diagnoses and appropriate treatment is guideline driven. We employ the “Gold Standard” in ligament injury testing in accordance with the American Medical Association Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment. We order spinal stress radiographs and then obtain an independent/third party report prepared by board certified medical radiologists to ascertain the precise location and severity of the injury.

Proper diagnosis is the foundation for optimal treatment.

Many auto injury patients choose to see a chiropractor as opposed to a medical doctor because chiropractors are highly trained in the care of the spine, back, and neck. At the Advanced Wellness Centre in Richmond, VA, the chiropractors have been trained to use a whole range of therapies available to treat whiplash including chiropractic adjustments, manipulation, mobilizations, massage therapy, dry needling, acupuncture, laser therapy, decompression therapy, corrective rehabilitative exercises, and electrical muscle stimulation with ice or moist heat.

Auto injuries demand “real world” considerations - considerations like, “Do you provide gentle musculoskeletal care?” “Can you treat me even if I don’t have insurance?” “Do I have to get an attorney?” At our practice, we can accommodate injured persons at no-out-of-pocket expense even if they have no insurance.

We use our extensive auto accident experience to help our auto injury patients sort out the legal mess and understand the legal implications after being involved in an accident. Insurance companies often win auto injury cases by requesting that victims settle their cases before they even get checked for soft tissue injuries. At the Advanced Wellness Centre, we will fully document your injuries and treatment for the insurance companies so you can get the money you deserve!
