Why Visit a Chiropractor after an Auto Accident
After a car accident, it's common to feel fine at first. Adrenaline masks pain, and many injuries - especially soft tissue injuries like whiplash - don't show up until 24 to 72 hours later. By the time symptoms appear, inflammation and compensatory tension have already set in.
Getting evaluated early is one of the most important things you can do for your recovery. Chiropractic care addresses the root cause of your pain rather than masking it with medication, helping your body heal the way it was designed to.
What We Treat
Whiplash Whiplash is the most common injury from rear-end collisions. The sudden back-and-forth motion of the neck strains muscles, ligaments, and joints. Symptoms include neck pain and stiffness, headaches, shoulder tension, and difficulty turning your head. Left untreated, whiplash can lead to chronic pain and reduced range of motion.
Back Pain After a Car Accident The force of impact — even at low speeds — can compress the spine, irritate discs, and strain the muscles that support your back. We see lower back pain and mid-back pain frequently after accidents, and both respond well to chiropractic care.
Headaches Post-accident headaches are often cervicogenic — meaning they originate in the neck. Spinal misalignments and muscle tension from the crash can refer pain into the head. Chiropractic adjustments that restore proper cervical alignment frequently resolve these headaches.
Soft Tissue Injuries Muscles, tendons, and ligaments absorb a tremendous amount of force during a collision. Soft tissue injuries are painful and slow to heal without the right support. We combine chiropractic adjustments with soft tissue therapy and massage to promote circulation and reduce inflammation.
Nerve Pain and Tingling If you're experiencing shooting pain, tingling, or numbness in your arms, legs, or hands after an accident, it may be a sign of nerve irritation from a compressed or inflamed spinal structure. Early evaluation and care can prevent these symptoms from worsening.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care
$0.00 on Out of Pocket on Auto & Work Injuries!
A visit to a chiropractor after an auto accident or work injury is typically included in your auto insurance PIP coverage or worker’s compensation plan. This means you could pay as little as $0 out of pocket for your chiropractic care.
We Accept Oregon PIP Insurance
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance is coverage through your auto insurance that covers your medical expenses after an accident.
Oregon drivers are required to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance, which means your treatment is covered regardless of who was at fault in the accident. You don't need to wait for a claim to be settled to start care.
We work with PIP insurance directly and can help you understand your coverage so you can focus on healing rather than paperwork. Learn more about PIP coverage →
