A car accident can leave you with more than just vehicle damage—it can cause injuries that may not be immediately noticeable. Even low-speed collisions can result in spinal misalignments, whiplash, soft tissue damage, and other musculoskeletal injuries that can lead to chronic pain if left untreated. Seeking care from a chiropractor after a car accident is one of the best ways to ensure a full and lasting recovery.
At Comprehensive Accident and Injury Center, we specialize in post-accident chiropractic care to relieve pain, restore mobility, and prevent long-term complications. Our experienced team provides personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific injuries, helping you heal naturally and effectively.
Many accident-related injuries do not present symptoms immediately. The shock and adrenaline rush following a crash can mask pain for hours or even days. This delay often leads individuals to believe they are uninjured when, in reality, they may have underlying issues that require professional treatment.
Seeing a chiropractor after a car accident provides multiple benefits, including:
Chiropractic care addresses the root cause of pain rather than just masking symptoms with painkillers.
Adjustments help decrease inflammation and promote the body's natural healing process.
Injuries like whiplash and spinal misalignments can limit mobility. Chiropractic treatments help restore proper movement.
Untreated injuries can lead to long-term pain, stiffness, and even degenerative conditions like arthritis. Early intervention prevents complications.
Chiropractors can detect hidden injuries, including soft tissue damage, joint misalignments, and nerve irritation, that may not appear on standard X-rays.

Car accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, and chiropractic care is an effective treatment for many of them. Some of the most common conditions we treat include:
Whiplash is one of the most frequent injuries sustained in car accidents, particularly rear-end collisions. This condition occurs when the neck is suddenly jerked forward and then snapped back, leading to strained muscles, ligament damage, and misaligned vertebrae. Symptoms include:
Chiropractic adjustments, combined with soft tissue therapy and rehabilitative exercises, can effectively treat whiplash and restore normal function to the neck and spine.
The force of impact during a crash can cause spinal misalignments that lead to chronic back pain, stiffness, and nerve compression. These issues may contribute to conditions such as:
Our chiropractors use spinal adjustments, decompression therapy, and targeted rehabilitation exercises to relieve back pain and restore spinal alignment.
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) that frequently occurs in car accidents, even when there is no direct impact to the head. The sudden jolt from a collision can cause the brain to move rapidly inside the skull, leading to damage that may not be immediately apparent.
Concussions are notoriously difficult to diagnose without the expertise of trained medical professionals. At Comprehensive Accident and Injury Center, our skilled team has extensive experience in identifying and treating concussions. If you have been in a car accident, it is crucial to get evaluated—even if you feel fine—because undiagnosed concussions can lead to serious long-term health issues.
The impact of a car accident can cause trauma to the shoulders, knees, and other joints, leading to pain, instability, and restricted movement. Chiropractic adjustments, combined with physical therapy and rehabilitative exercises, help realign joints and promote proper healing.
Chronic headaches following a car accident may indicate nerve irritation, tension in the neck and shoulders, or even an undiagnosed concussion. Chiropractic care can alleviate these headaches by correcting spinal misalignments, improving circulation, and reducing nerve pressure.
