Comprehensive, Conservative Treatment After an Injury

Your Partner in Recovery

If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, your recovery shouldn’t be a burden. At Gentle Care Chiropractic, we provide expert clinical care and comprehensive documentation to help you heal and support your personal injury claim.

A personal injury can affect every part of your life, from physical pain to missed work and emotional stress. At Gentle Care Chiropractic, we provide compassionate, evidence based personal injury chiropractic care designed to relieve pain, restore function, and support proper medical documentation during your recovery. If you are searching for a trusted personal injury chiropractor or injury treatment near me, our team is here to help.

What to Do After a Personal Injury Accident

Seek Medical Attention Immediately

Even if you feel “fine,” adrenaline can mask symptoms of soft tissue damage or spinal misalignment that may surface days later.

Whether your injury occurred in a car accident, slip and fall, pedestrian incident, or another accident caused by negligence, early action matters.

Document the Scene

If possible, take photos of the hazard that caused your injury (e.g., a wet floor, broken stairs, or a sidewalk gap).

Report the Incident

Ensure the property owner or manager creates an official incident report.

Contact an Attorney

If your injury was caused by negligence, a legal professional can help protect your rights.

Call a Personal Injury Chiropractor

Early intervention is the best way to prevent acute injuries from becoming chronic conditions.

Common Personal Injury Conditions We Treat

Accidents resulting from negligence often lead to musculoskeletal trauma. We specialize in treating:
  • Slip and Fall Injuries: Often resulting in back injuries, joint sprains, or wrist sprain.
  • Whiplash and Neck Strains: Common in pedestrian-vehicle accidents or sudden falls.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Sprains and strains that can limit range of motion and cause lasting stiffness.
  • Herniated or Bulging Discs: Often caused by the sudden impact of a fall.
  • Sciatica and Nerve Compression: Radiating pain caused by spinal trauma.
  • Chronic Headaches: Frequently a secondary symptom of neck and upper back injuries.
  • Concussions and Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries: Head injuries that may cause headaches, dizziness, and difficulty concentrating.
  • Exacerbation of Pre Existing Conditions: Prior injuries or degenerative conditions worsened by trauma.

What to Expect: Your Personal Injury Consultation

We prioritize clear communication and meticulous record-keeping to ensure your path to recovery is well-documented.

Comprehensive Evaluation

We conduct a thorough orthopedic and neurological exam to identify the extent of your injuries.

Diagnostic Imaging

If necessary, we utilize X-rays or refer for MRIs to visualize internal damage.

Attorney Coordination

We are experienced in working with Letters of Protection (LOP) and can provide your legal team with detailed medical narratives and billing statements.

Transparent Documentation

Every visit is documented with the detail required to prove medical necessity and track your functional improvement.

Compassionate Chiropractic Care for Personal Injury Patients

  • Personal injury cases often involve complex injuries affecting the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system. Pain may not appear immediately due to adrenaline, but symptoms frequently develop days or weeks later.
  • At Gentle Care Chiropractic, we focus on accurate diagnosis, functional recovery, and long term injury resolution, while working collaboratively with attorneys, primary care providers, and insurance representatives when needed.
Our clinic utilizes a multi-modal approach to personal injury rehabilitation:
  • Chiropractic Adjustments Restore joint motion, improve alignment, and reduce nerve irritation.
  • Massage Therapy and Manual Soft Tissue Care Address muscle tension, scar tissue formation, and circulation.
  • Physical Therapy and Corrective Exercises Improve strength, stability, and movement patterns.
  • Class 4 Laser Therapy Support tissue healing, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery.
  • Shockwave Therapy Target chronic soft tissue injuries and stubborn pain conditions.
  • Electrical Stimulation Therapy Reduce muscle spasms and pain while promoting relaxation.
  • Functional Rehabilitation Planning Support return to daily activities, work, and recreation.

Our goal is to help you recover fully and prevent long term complications.

Personalized Treatment Plans for Personal Injury Recovery

Every injury is unique. Your care plan is designed based on injury severity, affected tissues, and functional limitations.

The Benefits of Specialized Chiropractic Care

Choosing a chiropractor who understands the PI landscape makes a difference:

01

No Upfront Costs (in most cases)

We often work on PIP or lien basis, meaning you can receive the care you need now and settle the bill through your final legal settlement.

02

Focus on Function

Our goal isn’t just “less pain”; it’s helping you return to the activities and quality of life you enjoyed before the accident.

03

Non-Drug Pain Management

We offer an effective alternative to opioid prescriptions, focusing on physical healing rather than masking symptoms.
  • Coordinating with Med-Pay/PIP: If you have Medical Payments coverage, we can help process your claims directly.
  • Providing Expert Testimony: If your case goes to trial or mediation, our detailed records provide a clear history of your injury and recovery.
  • Timely Reporting: We ensure your attorney receives the medical records they need, when they need them, to avoid delays in your case.
Personal injury chiropractic care is often covered through auto insurance, liability claims, or medical payment benefits depending on the accident type.

What patients should know:

  • Early medical documentation is critical
  • Chiropractic care is commonly accepted in personal injury cases
  • We provide detailed exam findings and progress notes
  • We coordinate with attorneys and insurers when authorized
  • Patients with legal questions should consult a qualified personal injury attorney

Frequently Asked Questions

In many cases, we work on a “lien” or a Letter of Protection (LOP). This allows you to receive treatment with no out-of-pocket costs at the time of service, with the clinic being paid directly from your legal settlement.

 Yes. Soft tissue injuries and spinal misalignments often have a “delayed onset.” Identifying these issues early can prevent them from becoming permanent disabilities.

Absolutely. We regularly communicate with personal injury attorneys to provide necessary documentation, billing records, and medical narratives.

While we cannot provide legal advice, we can provide you with a medical evaluation that you can take to an attorney to help them determine the merits of your case.

The duration of care depends on the severity of the injury. We provide an initial treatment plan and adjust it based on your body’s response and functional progress.

 Yes. Falls often cause “hidden” injuries like pelvic tilts or spinal subluxations that chiropractic adjustments are uniquely suited to correct.

Yes, patients have the right to choose their treating physician. We can help transition your records to our office.

 A lien is a legal agreement where the provider agrees to wait for payment until your case is resolved. This ensures you get medical care even if you can’t afford it upfront.

Many post-accident headaches are “cervicogenic,” meaning they originate from injury to the neck. Chiropractic care is often highly effective for these cases.

Please bring a copy of the police or incident report, your insurance information, your attorney’s contact info (if applicable), and any previous imaging/ER discharge papers.
