Accident-Related Injuries We Treat

We treat a wide range of injuries caused by vehicle accidents and other traumatic incidents.

Whiplash & Neck Injuries

Whiplash is one of the most common accident injuries. We treat cervical strain, muscle spasms, and cervical spine misalignments with targeted adjustments and therapeutic exercises, with your range of motion measured at each re-exam.

Lower Back & Lumbar Injuries

Accident impact can cause lumbar strain, disc herniation, and sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Your treatment plan is built from what the exam finds and explained before care starts.

Shoulder & Arm Pain

We treat rotator cuff injuries, shoulder impingement, and radiating arm pain from accident-related trauma. The exam checks the shoulder and the neck, since arm pain can start in either.

Knee & Hip Injuries

Accident trauma can damage knees and hips. We address ligament sprains, meniscus injuries, and hip flexor strain with evidence-based chiropractic care.

Post-Accident Headaches & Migraines

Headaches after a crash are common enough to check for at every accident exam. We examine the neck and the muscles around it, and check the danger signs that need an emergency room first.

Soft Tissue & Muscle Injuries

Sprains, strains, and muscle tears are common in accidents. We use therapeutic techniques aimed at muscle strength and flexibility.

Our Treatment Techniques

We combine evidence-based chiropractic techniques with modern therapeutic approaches for optimal recovery.

Spinal Manipulation & Adjustment

Our doctors perform precise spinal adjustments on the joints the exam finds restricted or out of alignment after a crash. What is done, and why, is explained before care starts.

Therapeutic Soft Tissue Mobilization

We use advanced soft tissue techniques including myofascial release and trigger point therapy aimed at muscle tension in the muscles and ligaments the exam found involved.

Therapeutic Exercise & Rehabilitation

We design personalized exercise programs for strength, flexibility, and function, chosen from your exam and progressed at each re-exam.

Modality Therapy (Ice, Heat, Electrical Stimulation)

We use therapeutic modalities like TENS, ultrasound, and thermal therapy as part of a plan built from your exam.

Ergonomic & Postural Correction

Poor posture can delay recovery and cause re-injury. We assess your ergonomics and provide guidance on proper positioning, workplace setup, and daily activities to support healing.
