Even a minor car accident injury can have long-term repercussions. Without proper treatment, the effects of any auto accident can continue to get worse over time. Whether your injury was minor or traumatic, regardless of the severity, our doctors will make sure you are fully informed about the various treatment options available to you.
Car Accident Injury Doctor
The doctors at our medical clinic are all highly skilled in a variety of injury recovery treatments, from the most advanced forms of regenerative medicine to tried-and-true therapies, such as chiropractic and therapeutic massage.
Although the severity of an auto accident depends on many variables (e.g., motorcycle vs. truck, the rate of speed, and so on), our treatment options are effective for virtually any type of injury involving a vehicle. Common injuries include:
- Neck injuries, including whiplash
- Muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries
- Nerve damage

Treatment for Car Accidents
Chiropractic Care: A chiropractic examination can be vital after a car accident. It isn’t always immediately apparent when the spine’s vertebrae lose their proper alignment, but when they do, it can interfere with the healing processes anywhere throughout the body. If any of your vertebrae are found to be out of alignment, the doctor will use a precise technique to apply gentle pressure to correct the misalignment. Patients often report immediate pain relief after a spinal adjustment.
Spinal Decompression: Spinal decompression therapy can be helpful after a car accident if your injury involves the lower back or neck. The procedure involves relaxing on a special table that is used to gently stretch the spine, releasing pressure on the discs and allowing them to regain their natural form.
Trigger Point Injections: If one or more of your muscles is causing you pain as the result of an auto accident, trigger point injections can provide relief. The injection contains sarapin, a natural anti-inflammatory derived from the pitcher plant. The doctor injects the sarapin into the muscle’s trigger point, where it relaxes the muscle, eases inflammation, and promotes healing.
Laser Therapy: Laser treatments are an effective treatment for many types of injuries. A low-intensity beam of light is directed through the skin into the injured tissue in a painless process that stimulates the surrounding cells, enhancing the healing process.
Regenerative Cell Therapy: The natural growth factors and stem cells found in the treatments used in regenerative cell therapy are very young cells sourced from Wharton’s jelly, found in the umbilical cords of newborn babies. These cells are ethically collected in a painless procedure that does not cause any discomfort to the mother or baby. Donors are carefully screened in advance to ensure only the highest quality regenerative tissue is collected. When these vibrant young natural growth factors, cytokines, and stem cells are injected into the site of injury, they deliver a powerful boost to your body’s natural capacity to regenerate damaged tissue.
Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections: Platelet-rich plasma injections are another highly effective form of regenerative medicine that costs less than stem cell treatment. No donor tissue is required — the injection is made from a small amount of your own blood — resulting in a lower-cost treatment. The platelets in our blood contain a high concentration of cytokines and growth factors, and when concentrated further into platelet-rich plasma, they provide enhancement to the body’s regenerative processes, promoting more rapid recovery from injury.
