At Watkins Family Chiropractic, we treat many patients with injuries sustained in auto accidents. These injuries can include whiplash, neck pain, headaches, upper back pain, low back pain, and pain in the extremities.
Injuries that are obvious – cuts, bruises, broken bones, etc. - are treated right away. Neck and back injuries are usually not treated at the emergency room or by your medical doctor, and they may not be evident right away. A Chiropractor is specifically trained to identify and treat neck and back injuries. And the sooner you get them treated the better. Scar tissue can form from untreated injuries, leading to long-term pain and a longer recovery process.
Auto insurance is responsible for paying your medical bills (including chiropractic services) regardless of who is at fault. If you wait too long after your accident and your insurance claim is closed, you may be responsible for paying for all or a portion of your treatments.
When you get off the phone with your insurance company following an auto accident, give Watkins Family Chiropractic a call and set up a consultation with Dr. Josh. It’s never too late to get chiropractic treatment for your car accident injuries. But keep in mind – the sooner they are treated, the faster and easier it is to get you on the road to recovery.
