Accidents and Injuries

Our trained and caring staff is available to answer your call on these and other health related questions concerning our care.

Automobile Accidents

It is important to see a chiropractor following an automobile accident. Serious injuries should first be seen for medical treatment by a medical facility. Good chiropractic care should include proper examination, monitoring and treatment that must be applied to the injured soft or connective tissues. These tissues are the muscles, nerves, tendons and ligaments, of the neck, back and extremities. The impact of a collision can cause damage to these tissues that can heal improperly without proper correction. Our chiropractors are specially trained in the treatment of soft tissue recovery to provide proper support, therapeutics, muscle rehabilitation and gentle adjustment procedures.

Instructions: Call for an appointment. Our front desk assistants will help you with the information you should bring to your first visit. They can also give you information you may need regarding any home therapy that should be applied. In most cases treatment in auto accidents are paid for by automobile insurance.


Work Injuries

Low back, mid back, neck, arm and wrist injuries are the most common work injuries seen by our chiropractic offices. Proper assessment and treatment is important for the resolution of these injuries. The work done in our offices is designed to supply the proper techniques for natural healing and recovery. Injuries that require further medical evaluation or diagnostics are referred to the proper specialists. Physical therapeutics, rehabilitation and the correct time to return to activities of daily living are an important part of our care.

Instructions: Call to speak to the front desk. You will be asked important information about your case that will direct your treatment to the proper provider.


Sports Injuries

Athletes give their bodies an extra challenge. If their muscles and joints are not balanced before they play, chances are better that they will get injured. It is important that athletes have proper guidance and chiropractic care while they are active in their sport.

Most of our major professional athletes have a chiropractor at their side and immediately seek help when they get hurt. This is important in preserving their ability to stay healthy longer.


Home Injuries

Even though most of us are not athletes, we require the same kind of attention. We need our body to be in good physical position and balance to do even the smallest tasks. Letting problems get worse or go without attention and care is a dangerous plan for your health. Without a check-up from a professional it is hard to tell if symptoms are part of a small problem or a big problem. Even though most of us are not athletes, we require the same kind of attention.

While many insurance companies will pay for care to keep you healthy, some don't. We understand that even if no insurance is available, patients need a way to afford the care they require. We make a special effort to help patients with special arrangements to get the care they need, when they need it.

It is important to find the special doctor of chiropractic that suits your needs. It is also good to find an office with flexible budget plans and financing to take care of your special financial circumstances.

Dr. Riffey Asks some important questions of interest to Rocklin residents - Chiropractor Rocklin Dr. Riffey Asks...

How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most Rocklin residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic patients know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
Why are chiropractors wary of the germ theory?
Louis Pasteur originated the idea that germs caused disease. Yet, on his deathbed he recanted, declaring, "It's not the seed, but the soil." Meaning, it's not the germ that causes disease, but the condition of the body that allows the germ to thrive. Chiropractic care in our Rocklin office is designed to bolster your resistance so germs don't see you as a good host.
