Harrisburg chiropractor treats auto accident and workers comp injuries

When patients come to Dr. Skocik with back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, whiplash or other injuries associated with an auto accident or workers compensation case, he conducts a thorough examination using functional computerized testing to pinpoint the cause of pain. He may utilize EMG (electromyography) testing to evaluate the electrical activity of your skeletal muscles, or he may perform JTECH testing to measure your range of motion, grip strength, and muscle strength.

In some cases, a spinal misalignment or herniated disc may be causing pressure on nerves which could radiate pain to other parts of the body. That's why it's important to spend the time first locating the source of pain. Dr. Skocik then recommends the exact combination of services that he believes will get you back to full functioning as soon as possible. This may include chiropractic care, spinal decompression, physiotherapy or massage therapy. Our newest addition, chiropractic aqua beds, can combine the chiropractic healing therapies of heat, water, and massage to increase circulation and advance the healing process.
