Impact Medical is your ultimate healing partner when you’ve been injured in a boating accident in Florida. Boating is meant to be something fun and exciting.

Our expert and experienced medical professionals have built a specialized boating injury treatment program that targets the most common personal injuries that happen during these harrowing events in your life. There is no kind of protection provided when you’re involved in a boat accident. It tends to be between you and the water or the other boat.

Common boating accident injuries you should seek treatment on right away!
Many types of injuries can occur in a boat accident, and whether you feel you’ve been injured or not, be sure that you come to see the specialists at Impact Medical right away.
We have the knowledge and experience to diagnose any unforeseen issues and injuries that can occur in the course of a boat accident. Including these common types of Florida boating accident injuries:
Whiplash
Whiplash is a violent force that can have a devastating impact on your neck, head, and spine. From your nerve roots down to your discs and ligaments, whiplash that goes untreated by professionals at Impact Medical can create chronic pain that’s difficult to recover from.
Pinched Nerves
A pinched nerve applies when excessive pressure is applied to a nerve resulting in pain, numbness and/or tingling. The trauma of a boating accident can lead to a pinched nerve anywhere in your body, but the most common place for one to occur is in your spine. Treatments for pinched nerves include a spinal adjustment to force relaxation of the nerve endings as well as passive and active physical therapy treatments to reduce the pain caused by a pinched nerve.
Herniated Discs
The other spinal injury that often results from a boating accident is a herniated disc. When one of the discs in the spine is damaged it can pinch the nerves within the spine and even cause the jelly-like fluid of the spine to leak. This can lead to pain, numbness and weakness. The pain and symptoms caused by these injuries can be addressed by our medical team using spinal manipulation, flexion-distraction and other therapeutic exercises. In the most severe cases, and only when other methods are unsuccessful a surgical procedure may be required to provide true comfort and relief.
Neck & Back Injuries
Neck and back injuries are some of the most common types of boating injuries we work with because of how vulnerable your body is during the collision. If you’ve suffered a spinal misalignment or even a fracture to the vertebrae in your neck or back from side-impact, call our dedicated staff today before you injure yourself further.
