The neck, back and shoulders are the body parts most often injured in car crashes. However, keep in mind that any part of your body may be injured. Your knees may slam against the dashboard. Your foot/ankle may get sprained or strained from hitting the brakes with much more force than normal. You might sprain your wrists if you clench the steering wheel too tightly. You may suffer a concussion. These are only a sample of the countless injuries that are possible in an auto accident. If you are involved in a wreck be sure to see an auto accident injury specialist for your care. Dr. Todd Hartwig at Marcum Chiropractic Clinic is an auto-injury specialist and will provide you with the best care. Patients from all over the Portland-metro area and beyond have been trusting their care to Dr. Hartwig for years. Call today for an evaluation: 503-235-7130

Dedicated doctors continue to further their skills and knowledge throughout their careers. For a chiropractic physician who treats primarily persons injured in automobile accidents there is no better training than that offered through the Spine Research Institute of San Diego (www.srisd.com). Doctor Hartwig is one of the few doctors in the Portland area to be a two-time graduate of this prestigious facility. This additional training enables him to properly diagnose and treat your injuries. Many doctors will tell you they specialize in treating “whiplash” and crash-related injuries, however, without advanced training they are just one of the masses. Demand the best! The team at Marcum Chiropractic Clinic will get you feeling better- do not wait any longer. Call today: 503-235-7130

“Just a fender-bender”

The amount of car damage from an accident has NO correlation to the severity of injuries sustained by the occupants of the vehicle(s). In fact, it is quite common to see worse injuries when there is little vehicle damage than when a car is totaled following a wreck. Remember this if you happen to get into a wreck. No matter how minor it may seem, be sure to be evaluated by an auto-injury specialist. Dr. Hartwig is an auto-injury specialist with years of experience treating people injured in car wrecks. He can help you- give him a call at 503-235-7130.

All ages are welcome!

People often ask me if it is OK for children to get chiropractic adjustments. The answer is a resounding YES! Chiropractic care has been shown to improve numerous childhood maladies such as asthma, bed-wetting, growing pains, etc. Children of all ages can get adjusted. In fact, one of the most important times to have your child adjusted is immediately after birth- really! The journey from inside the mother’s womb to the outside world is cramped to say the least. Being adjusted after birth can make for a much happier baby and allow for more sleep and an easier time breast-feeding. If your child needs an adjustment, call us today: 503-235-7130

Protect your head!

Whether it’s football, hockey, skiing, snowboarding or a host of other sports, you need to wear a helmet to protect yourself. Obviously, riding a motorcycle or ATV without a helmet is asking for trouble. Helmets cannot protect against all forms of injury, however, it is much better to be injured than dead. Be smart. Stay alive.

Fix Your Shoulders!

Dr. Todd Hartwig — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 17:41:08 +0000

Shoulders are often injured in motor vehicle collisions. Many times people will not be overly concerned with their shoulder injury because other injuries (e.g., neck pain, headaches, etc.) will be more disruptive to their lives. Do not ignore your shoulders! The shoulder is an extremely intricate joint with numerous muscle groups attached to it. Ignoring the injury and not getting proper treatment can set you up for a lifetime of pain and disability. If you are involved in an auto accident, be sure to get ALL of your aches/pains/injuries evaluated by an auto accident specialist. Dr. Todd Hartwig has years of experience treating people injured in car wrecks and will help you, too. Don’t delay- get treatment today! 503-235-7130

It all starts with a good base…

Is your low back sore? How about your neck? Mid-back pain affect you daily? If so, it may not be your back’s fault. It may be a problem that originates in your knees and/or feet. If your feet/knees are not functioning properly or if there is an asymmetry between the left and right sides, this can cause problems higher up the body. The back and neck will compensate for these lower-body problems so your head and eyes stay on the horizontal plane.

Dr. Hartwig is a biomechanical expert and can assess your feet, knees, posture, back, neck, etc. to determine the cause of your problems. His treatments, exercises and activity modifications will have you on the road to better health in no time. Call Marcum Chiropractic Clinic today to schedule your appointment. 503-235-7130
