Americans are addicted to their automobiles. Nowhere else in the world do privately owned cars enjoy such an integrated connection to our everyday lives.
Many hours spent driving and in traffic do increase the possibility that one day an unfortunate accident will occur. Even if you are the best and most safe driver, this does little to keep someone else from hitting you.
Most states require insurance as a condition for the privilege of using the public roads and highways. But how much insurance should one carry? What does it cost to repair a car today, and perhaps more importantly, what does it cost to get you back to work and healthy again after a whiplash-type of trauma?
It may surprise you how much a ride in the ambulance, or a short stay in the hospital will set you back. Although chiropractic care expenses are generally less than care provided at hospitals or by surgeons, the costs can add up quickly, especially if you’ve suffered significant injury to your ligaments, disks and nerves after an auto accident in Las Vegas.
That’s why it’s important that you have adequate coverage should the unexpected occur. Periodically review your insurance coverage and make sure it is keeping up with the times. You don’t want to be caught in a bind where your coverage does not meet your needs. In areas of insurance, med-pay and underinsured/not insured policies, help to protect you when others are not adequately covered and help to offset the costs of your treatment. Your insurance agent can help you navigate the various policy options that will best protect you and your family. Most agents will consult with you at no charge, so take advantage of their
expertise.
And if you have suffered a whiplash injury, a doctor of chiropractic can properly assess the extent of spinal trauma and provide non-drug and non-surgical treatment for your neck, back or shoulder pain. Most whiplash injuries from auto accidents result in tears and sprain of the delicate ligaments that support the bones of the neck. Chiropractic doctors often specialize in the treatment of patients with spine and neck trauma after a car accident.
