Even after a minor fender-bender, your body absorbs a surprising amount of force. Many patients walk away from an accident feeling “shaken but okay” — only to develop pain, stiffness, or headaches in the days or weeks that follow.

If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

At Chiropractic Specialists, we regularly see patients dealing with the lingering effects of car accidents. Whether it’s whiplash, back pain, nerve irritation, or muscle tension, these injuries are real—and treatable.

🧠 Why Symptoms Don’t Always Show Up Right Away

After a collision, your body enters a state of high alert—flooded with adrenaline, which can mask pain temporarily. Once the stress hormones fade, symptoms may begin to surface:

• Neck pain or stiffness
• Headaches (especially at the base of the skull)
• Lower back pain
• Shoulder or upper back tightness
• Dizziness or brain fog
• Pain radiating down the arms or legs

Even low-speed impacts can disrupt normal joint motion, strain soft tissues, and affect the alignment of your spine.

👐 What Makes Chiropractic Care Different

Many patients come to us after trying pain medication, muscle relaxers, or even injections—often with only temporary relief. Our approach is different.

We focus on identifying and correcting the root cause of your pain, not just masking the symptoms.

Your treatment plan may include:
✅ Gentle chiropractic adjustments
✅ Soft tissue therapy to reduce muscle tension and inflammation
✅ Targeted rehab exercises to restore mobility and strength
✅ Education on posture, movement, and self-care strategies for lasting results

📈 The Sooner You Start, the Better the Outcome

Delaying care can make symptoms worse—and harder to treat. Scar tissue can form, joints can stiffen, and muscle imbalances can become chronic.

Early treatment helps reduce inflammation, support your body’s natural healing process, and prevent long-term complications.

🙋‍♀️ Real Patients, Real Results

We’ve helped hundreds of patients regain their mobility, get back to work and family activities, and finally feel like themselves again—after weeks or even months of frustration.

Many say the same thing:
“I wish I had come in sooner.”

Are You Suffering from Text Neck?

Do you spend hours looking down at your phone, tablet, or computer? You may be at risk for Text Neck Syndrome, a modern condition caused by prolonged forward head posture while using electronic devices. This can lead to neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and even long-term spinal issues.

Signs & Symptoms of Text Neck

 ✔️ Persistent neck and shoulder pain
✔️ Stiffness and reduced range of motion
✔️ Frequent headaches
✔️ Upper back pain or muscle spasms
✔️ Numbness or tingling in arms and hands

How Text Neck Affects Your Spine

For every inch your head tilts forward, it adds 10 pounds of extra pressure on your spine! Over time, this can lead to disc compression, misalignment, and chronic discomfort.

Prevention & Relief Tips

 ✅ Keep Screens at Eye Level: Raise your phone or monitor to eye height to maintain proper    posture.
✅ Take Frequent Breaks: Every 20-30 minutes, stretch and reset your posture.
✅ Strengthen & Stretch: Neck and upper back exercises can help improve posture and reduce strain.
✅ Chiropractic Care: Regular adjustments can correct misalignment and alleviate pain.
✅ Use Ergonomic Accessories: Invest in a supportive chair, ergonomic keyboard, and proper desk setup.
