Chiropractic Care for Car Accidents
You don't have to wait to get help.
Car crashes can happen at any time. They can be very disruptive to your life and schedule, but you should not have to deal with constant pain.
Car accidents as little as 7 miles per hour can cause a whiplash injury in the neck which can take months to heal if not properly addressed. When someone sustains an injury from an auto accident, the muscles in the neck and upper back can go into a spasm which can last for weeks and the ligaments in the neck can become stretched any/or torn. These soft tissue injuries can cause a severely restricted range of motion in the neck and upper back. Over time this will cause misalignments in the spine. Luckily, gentle and specific chiropractic adjustments can help restore motion to the joints to relieve pain.
Our team is specially trained in effective and gentle soft tissue and chiropractic treatments for whiplash injuries.
If you have been the victim of a car accident we are here to help. You don't have to wait until insurance settlements or legal battles are over to seek care.
In Florida, the PIP 14-day rule requires that you seek medical attention within 14 days of a car accident. If you fail to seek medical attention within the first two weeks after a car accident, your insurer will deny your claim.

How Does Chiropractic Care Help After A Car Accident?
Chiropractic care promotes optimal health by reducing stress on your body’s nervous system.
The human body has an intricate nervous system which consists of your central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), peripheral nervous system (nerves connected to all areas outside of your brain and spine) and autonomic or involuntary nerve systems (that regulate bodily functions like heart rate).
Since these three components work together as one unit, they need to be in harmony in order for you to be at your best. When pain and inflammation occur, they can interfere with this delicate balance which causes your body’s systems to not work properly.
Chiropractic care acts as a catalyst by restoring the proper function of all three components, resulting in improved health and wellness!
