Have you been in a car accident? Auto collisions happen every day. Not only are they scary, but they can cause severe injuries. If you’re in a car accident, it’s important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if you don’t think you’re injured, it’s best to get checked out right away.
Not all injuries result in pain right away. Sometimes it’s obvious that you are hurt, while other times, pain can manifest over time and come out several weeks later. Our chiropractic team is here to evaluate you after your accident and make sure we stay on top of any developing issues. It’s important to get ahead of your injuries rather you realize they are there, or not. Waiting can cause long-term issues for your body.
Injury Treatment
If you’re feeling the impacts of a car accident, you’ll want to seek professional attention soon to get to the root cause of the problem.
Whiplash
Whiplash is the primary injury people deal with from accidents. Chiropractic care can help you heal faster and feel great again.
Long Term Prevention
Even without obvious pain or discomfort, chiropractic care will ensure no problems arise later down the road from your accident.
During a crash, the car doesn’t absorb the full shock of the crash, the occupants do. When your body is jerked around in response, it’s very likely to experience trauma and injury internally.
Chiropractic Care After an Auto Accident
The funny thing about pain is the way it can show up when you least expect it. Even if you feel fine immediately after a car accident, it’s always a good idea to get checked out by a medical practitioner. If you’ve been in an accident, it’s recommended to see a Chiropractor to evaluate any potential underlying injuries.
Top Chiropractic Care for Auto Injuries in Atlanta
If you do have injuries, chiropractic care can help. Chiropractors are experts in treating auto accident injuries. They can help you regain your mobility and get back to your everyday life. In many cases, chiropractic care can even help reduce the amount of time you need to recover.
Car crashes rattle your body, and your spine, which can cause immediate pain or discomfort that arises weeks later. It’s important to not go unchecked. The longer you let your injuries go, the more problematic it will become later. It’s recommended to see a Chiropractor as soon as possible after a car accident.
Common Injuries from a Car Accident
Auto accidents are extremely dangerous and even fatal. But even small fender benders can cause a significant impact on your body without you knowing.
Here are common injuries that result from car crashes:
Whiplash
This is the most common injury from car accidents. Whiplash is caused when your head snaps forward and then back again, oftentimes faster than your neck can move. This can cause damage to the tendons, muscles, and ligaments in your neck. Symptoms of whiplash include pain in the neck, headaches, dizziness, and blurred vision.
Back injuries
Car accidents can cause back injuries such as a herniated disk or spinal cord compression. These injuries can be extremely painful and may require surgery.
Brain injuries
Brain injuries are another serious injury that can occur from a car accident. They can range from minor concussions to more serious Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). Symptoms of a brain injury include confusion, headaches, blurred vision, and dizziness.
Fractures & Broken Bones
Broken bones are another common injury from car accidents. A broken bone can take a long time to heal, and in some cases, may never fully heal.
If you’ve been in a car accident, it’s important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if you don’t think you’re injured, it’s best to get checked out right away.
How do Chiropractors Treat Auto Injuries?
Our chiropractic team in Atlanta evaluates you for possible injuries that you may not even feel yet. We’ll do a full review of your spinal column, vertebrae, neck, and extremities to ensure that nothing is misaligned. It’s very common to find misalignments after auto accidents.
Based on your exam, we’ll perform adjustments to get you back into alignment so your body can heal properly. We also may provide you with some at-home exercises or stretches to help improve mobility and reduce pain.
In many cases, chiropractic care can help reduce the amount of time you need to recover from your car accident. It’s important to get ahead of your injuries, rather than waiting until they become a problem.

Their team is GREAT. I've been a high end performer all my life, so I know a thing or 2 about physical therapy after injury. They WILL get you better.<br>Both chiropractors are gentle and have nice bedside manners.<br>Amanda and Sarah, the massage therapists, are beyond amazing. Life changing and exceptional skills.<br>Very friendly staff and dedicated staff, and they do their best to make it work with your schedule.<br>Not too busy, very conveniently located and accessible, relax setting. (and the electro therapy room screen might be AI scenery, but you just wanna go and spend a 3 weeks vacation in every one of these fictional places. I even look forward to the different one every week!)<br>And also they offer dry needling, which is, in my humble opinion and experience, exceptionally efficient for post -traumatic recovery.
Dr. Minter and his staff do a great job of listening to their patients needs as well as explaining treatments and course of action. They care about the patient and are always there to answer questions or concerns. I recommend them to you if you have any pain or discomfort.
Everybody here is great. From reception desk to Doctor Peters. Clean office, nice waiting room and pre-visit area. Schedules fill up quickly so don’t hesitate to use them.<br>Only part that wasn’t great was 20+ pages of paperwork to fill out as new patient.
The office always smells clean and the staff is everything wonderful and complete love bugs . Especially after this second accident I asked attorney to please send me back to this clinic for treatment because you really need your quality of life back , the whole team here help you achieve that .
I absolutely love this place! Very efficient and knowledgeable. They listen to the patient. The trifecta is Ruby front desk , Dr. Meyers and Sheryl the therapist!
I had been going to ASR for about six months after an accident left me with a messed up shoulder. I had done multiple shots and visited the chiropractor but didn’t get any relief until I started working with Dr. Chad Colby. After a few months, I wasn’t improving and the pain made every day life pretty rough. Dr. Colby not only listened to my concerns but we came up with a plan that ultimately lead me to have the relief I needed and helped with my recovery and mobility. He has amazing bedside manner (this is so important) and a great touch for dry needling. The staff here is also great. All the assistants that worked me listened and paid attention to where I was at on a day to day basis and we adjusted when needed. Overall, I just can’t say enough good things about Dr. Colby and his team. Even the other doctors I never met with were always very nice and welcoming. I’m sad to go but oh so thankful for getting on the road to feeling like myself again. If you need PT and have a choice, it’s a no brainer here - Dr. Colby. Thank you so very much.
I was in a accident this year and was recommended by my attorney at this location. My first impression was everyone from the doctors, front desk, massage therapist were very friendly and professional at all times. The doctor’s that have seen me were very knowledgeable and professional about their specialty and answered my questions to my satisfaction. The entire area also were very clean and tidy. I stuck with my physical therapy and got the results I wanted by sticking to it. Sorry if I dont know all your names but thank you so much! It was a pleasure to work with you all. You made my Physical therapy very fun and enjoyable to attend. God bless🙏🏽
Dr Trenton Minter and Rheanne are the best. They have helped me tons with my lower back pain. Very easy to schedule and be seen. Always listens and cares!
This business has the atmosphere of healing. Rheanne was absolutely amazing as well as the chiropractor! Very informative, very professional, and amazingly pleasant. I got an xray and an adjustment, I’ll be coming back for sure! Recommend 100%
Trenton is absolutely wonderful! He doesn’t just treat symptoms—he listens, cares, and makes sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. He always works with so much compassion, and I can honestly say I leave every appointment feeling better. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about his patients, Trenton is the one!
I have been receiving therapy from this facility for a while now and I would highly recommend this office to anyone. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is very easy to make an appointment and the doctors are very knowledgeable and helpful. They explain the process and they make sure you understand what is going on. Pam U
The office staff is very friendly and courteous, putting the patients at ease upon entering the office.<br>Dr. Fiske and Dr. Watkins are thorough in their assessments and treatments, no matter who the patient is. They are courteous and professional in the manner with which they interact and treat all of their patients.
We have been going to the Summerlin location since we retired to Las Vegas. The husband and I have been very satisfied with the customer service and the doctors there.<br>Since Dr. Blanchard now works out of the South office, we have been seeing Dr. Parker G. He is great, very attentive and explains everything well.
I am so impressed with the Staff, Therapists and Doctors with Advanced Spine and Rehabilitation. From excellent Customer Service to their knowledge and expertise. I couldn’t be happier. Since they’ve taken me “under their wing” their care has been outstanding and comforting. Thank you!
