Chiropractic treatment can help your body recover from car accident injuries that don’t heal on their own. At Meyer Medical and Chiropractic, we look beyond the surface to identify the root of your pain—whether it’s stiffness, inflammation, muscle tension, or lingering numbness.

Through targeted chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, massage therapy, and cold‑laser treatment, we help restore mobility, reduce discomfort, and accelerate your healing. Our goal is simple: get you feeling like yourself again, safely and efficiently, with care that’s tailored to your unique recovery.

Yes — and this is one of the biggest surprises for most patients. Your body releases adrenaline during a crash, which can mask pain for days or even weeks. Hidden injuries like micro‑tears, joint misalignments, or soft‑tissue inflammation often show up later as stiffness, headaches, or nerve irritation. At Meyer Medical and Chiropractic, we specialize in detecting these early so they don’t turn into long‑term problems.

Every car accident is different. With some incidents, you may not immediately feel the pain and discomfort. That does not mean that you have not been affected by the accident. The symptoms of whiplash can take days to appear and it is likely that your whiplash is not the only pain you’re experiencing. Our treatment options are designed to relieve your pain, improve your overall health and wellness, break down the scar tissue, and speed the healing process.

Because untreated inflammation can spread and create compensations throughout your body. When one area is injured, surrounding muscles tighten to protect it — which can trigger new pain patterns. Our chiropractic adjustments, soft‑tissue therapies, and cold‑laser treatments help interrupt this cycle so your body can heal instead of overcompensating.

Absolutely. Even collisions under 10 mph can create enough force to strain ligaments, shift vertebrae, or irritate nerves. Vehicles are designed to absorb impact — your body isn’t. That’s why we perform a full biomechanical assessment, even for “minor” crashes, to catch injuries that standard ER exams often miss.

By restoring proper alignment and mobility before scar tissue locks dysfunction into place. Scar tissue forms quickly — sometimes within 48 hours. If joints aren’t moving correctly during that window, the body “heals wrong,” leading to long‑term stiffness or recurring pain. Our targeted treatments help guide your body back into healthy movement patterns so you recover fully, not just temporarily.
