Chiropractors are often the second or third line of treatment for those seeking auto accident injury treatment. Typically, patients receive a physical evaluation at the scene of an accident by EMS and sometimes proceed with a visit to the Emergency Room. Often, patients follow up with a primary care physician. While these providers focus on immediate concerns, they often do not address the underlying musculoskeletal damage that leads to lingering pain and mobility issues.
Chiropractic care goes beyond symptom management by targeting the root cause of pain, such as spinal misalignments, soft tissue injuries, and nerve compression.
We’re here to support your physical recovery after an auto accident. Our chiropractors can order advanced imaging, like X-rays, to better understand what damage the accident may have caused. We’ll perform a thorough exam, reviewing all pain points, to determine a course of treatment.
Auto accident injury treatment with a chiropractor takes a slow and steady course–it’s not a race. While many patients report some feeling of improvement immediately, treatment usually continues for weeks or months following a crash. Throughout treatment, we’ll continue to monitor your progress and adjust our techniques as necessary. We’ll also recommend completing things like at-home exercises between sessions and advise on options like physical therapy.
Our primary goal is to help you find relief from pain.
With all of our treatment comes meticulous documentation. This documentation is helpful for those filing insurance claims or lawsuits due to an auto accident. Insurance companies want to know the full extent of injuries and necessary treatment to evaluate costs and determine compensation.
Chiropractic documentation for car accidents includes:
When filing an insurance claim, having the correct medical documentation is often the most crucial part of your case. Without the right documentation by the right providers, insurance companies are often unwilling or unable to approve any claims. The key to getting fast and fair compensation is to provide the most and best information possible the first time around.
We create detailed injury reports for each person who seeks auto accident injury treatment. These are detailed medical documents that only a provider administering your care can make. They are often the key to getting an insurance payout.
Chiropractic injury reports include:
Here, we’ll include the number of visits we expect you’ll need, how frequently visits are recommended, and the prognosis of your injuries. We can estimate the total cost of care during this time and provide information regarding things like time off work.
The connection between appropriate medical documentation and claim approval is simple: your claim will likely be denied without it. That makes seeking timely care absolutely crucial. The faster we can examine you and start working toward your recovery, the faster we can provide the necessary documents to your insurance company.
At ChiroCare of Florida, we’re here to make receiving treatment for auto accident injuries as simple and straightforward as possible. That includes assisting you with all insurance claims pertaining to the accident, providing superior care so you can recover quickly, and communicating with insurance companies on your behalf.
At ChiroCare of Florida, we take a personalized approach to diagnosing and treating auto accident injuries. Through thorough evaluations and advanced imaging, we identify the full extent of your injuries—many of which may not cause immediate symptoms.
Once diagnosed, we create a customized treatment plan that may include spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapies, and targeted exercises to restore mobility and reduce pain. As your recovery progresses, we continuously monitor and adjust treatment to ensure optimal healing.
We also coordinate with other specialists when necessary, ensuring you receive comprehensive care. Our goal is not just short-term relief, but long-term recovery, helping you regain mobility and prevent chronic pain.
Suffering an injury in a car accident is traumatic. There’s the fear associated with the accident itself, and then the overwhelming challenge of physical recovery. The last thing you need is to worry about communicating with insurance companies.
That’s why we’re here to handle that for you. We’ll file all the necessary paperwork to ensure you get coverage for your care and have documentation should you move forward with a claim or lawsuit.
Not only do we help with documentation and claims, but we can also help with the settlement negotiation process. Additionally, should you file a lawsuit and proceed to court, our chiropractors can serve as expert medical witnesses on the stand, detailing the extent of your injuries to a judge and jury.
Seatbelt bruises, airbag injuries, whiplash, and broken bones are just a few of the most common auto accident injuries that chiropractors treat. Any injury that affects the muscle or skeletal system is one that we can address through a variety of treatment modalities.
Approximately three million Americans suffer from whiplash each year–the majority resulting from car accidents. Rear-end accidents, in particular, often cause whiplash and neck pain. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, headaches, and dizziness.
We treat whiplash by performing gentle spinal manipulations, massage therapy, stretching techniques, and more.
Injuries affecting the muscles, ligaments, and tendons are all examples of soft tissue damage. These injuries often result in bruising, swelling, and loss of range of motion. Additionally, many patients report back pain after a car accident.
We treat these injuries with instrument-assisted therapies like ultrasound, E-STIM, and more, along with ancillary treatments like physical rehabilitation.
We’ve helped countless South Florida residents resolve pain through professional auto-injury treatment. With decades of experience and a team of expert chiropractors on staff, we’re ready to help you start the process of recovery.
