Natural Treatment Options with our Car Accident Chiropractor

Our car accident chiropractor offers a variety of non-invasive, drug-free options to heal your auto accident injuries, including chiropractic adjustments, cold laser therapy, and massage, myofascial release, mechanical traction and ultrasound.

Chiropractic Adjustments and Massage Therapy

Chiropractic adjustments are often combined with massage therapy in order to rapidly reduce muscle and soft tissue pain while improving recovery times. Massage therapy helps relax your muscles, ligaments and tendons, which lowers your overall pain. Receiving your massage before your adjustment makes for a more comfortable and longer-lasting adjustment. We also offer myofascial release, which is a safe, hands on technique that applies gentle sustained pressure to an area. This technique can help restore range of motion in the upper back, neck and shoulders.

Cold Laser Therapy

Cold laser therapy helps heal soft tissue injuries by increasing cellular metabolism, which speeds tissue regeneration and lowers inflammation.
