FAQ
It's best to consult a chiropractor as soon as possible after the accident. We recommend seeing a chiropractor within two weeks of the accident. Doing so will ensure that any underlying issues can be addressed before they worsen and cause more damage.
Here are some Key Statistics about Chiropractic Injuries: Approximately 35% of patients experience adverse events after chiropractic treatment. Neck manipulation is the most common cause of serious complications from chiropractic care.
When a chiropractor's medical treatment causes a patient injury, that patient may be able to sue. While chiropractors are not medical doctors, they can still be liable for malpractice or professional negligence.
You should wait 72 hours (3 days) after ANY injury before getting a massage. Otherwise you risk inflamming the tissue more. Make sure to tell the therapist that you were in an accident and how long it's been. Acute stages of healing can still be treated but they need to follow protocol and be very gentle.
Many insurance plans require a referral from your primary care physician or a pre-authorization before seeking chiropractic treatment. Some policies may also cap the number of visits or limit their reimbursements for chiropractic services.
For mild auto crash injuries, you can anticipate treatment for three to six weeks. For moderate injuries, treatment can take several weeks or months. If you sustained a permanent disability as a result of your accident, you may need ongoing chiropractic care for the foreseeable future.
Ideally, whiplash patients should consult a chiropractor within days or at most weeks of their accident. However, even long-standing whiplash symptoms can often be helped through chiropractic treatment. Thorough assessment is the first step in whiplash chiropractic care.
Ideally, you should seek medical treatment from a chiropractor within a few days of the accident, even if you're not experiencing severe pain or obvious symptoms. Some injuries, such as whiplash or soft tissue damage, may not become apparent until days or even weeks after the accident.
You have two years to file a personal injury lawsuit resulting from a car accident in California. You have three years for property damage claims. If a government vehicle is involved, the statute of limitations is six months for personal injury.
