After the crash

Why see a chiropractor after a car accident

Even a low-speed collision can push your head, neck and back beyond their normal range of motion. Soft tissue injuries such as whiplash often do not show up on the day of the accident. Pain, stiffness or headaches may appear hours or days later.

A chiropractic examination soon after the accident helps find these injuries early, start treatment before pain becomes chronic and document your injuries for your insurance claim.

Symptoms to watch for after a car accident

  • Neck pain or stiffness
  • Headaches that start after the accident
  • Back or lower back pain
  • Shoulder, hip or knee pain
  • Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
  • Dizziness or trouble concentrating

If you have severe pain, numbness, loss of consciousness or other emergency symptoms, go to the emergency room or call 911 first.

Paying for care

Insurance after a car accident in Oregon

Every private passenger auto insurance policy in Oregon includes Personal Injury Protection (ORS 742.520). PIP pays your medical expenses, including chiropractic care, regardless of who caused the accident: at least $15,000 per person for expenses incurred within two years of the injury (ORS 742.524).

When PIP benefits run out, other coverage may apply: the at-fault driver’s liability insurance, your uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage, your health insurance or a letter of protection through your attorney.
