Chiropractic After a Car Accident in Mandarin Jacksonville

Even a minor car accident can cause injuries that linger for weeks, months, or even years if left untreated. Whiplash, back pain, headaches, and joint discomfort are common after a collision, and these problems often stem from spinal misalignments or soft tissue damage. At San Jose Chiropractic, Dr. Thuraia Owais (Dr. O) helps patients recover naturally and restore proper alignment so their bodies can heal.

Why Chiropractic Care Is Important After a Car Accident

Many accident-related injuries are not immediately obvious. Pain, stiffness, and other symptoms may take hours or days to appear. Chiropractic care focuses on finding and correcting underlying spinal and joint issues that might otherwise be missed.

By restoring proper alignment and movement, we can help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and prevent long-term complications.

Common Questions After a Car Accident

Do I need to see a chiropractor even if I feel fine?
Yes. Some injuries may not cause pain right away, but they can worsen over time. An early evaluation helps detect problems before they become more serious.

Can chiropractic care help with whiplash?
Yes. Whiplash often involves damage to the neck muscles, ligaments, and joints. Gentle chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue work can help restore proper movement, reduce pain, and support healing.

Will I have to see a chiropractor forever?
No. The length of your care plan depends on your specific injuries and how quickly you heal. Dr. O will create a personalized plan and review your progress regularly.
