Auto Accident Chiropractic Care in Morristown

Even a “minor” car accident can leave you with pain, stiffness, or headaches that do not show up right away. At May Family Chiropractic, we help patient feel heard, supported, and cared for after a crash, with gentle chiropractic care that focuses on real relief and long-term results.

With two convenient offices in Morristown, our team is here to help you get back to daily life as safely and comfortably as possible.

Why You Should Get Checked After a Car Accident

It is common to walk away from a crash thinking you are fine, only to feel sore or stiff days later. A quick checkup can:

  • Help find hidden injuries before they get worse
  • Reduce pain and stiffness in the neck, back, and shoulders
  • Support better healing of muscles, ligaments, and joints
  • Help you return to work and family activities safely

Car accident forces can strain your spine, muscles, and nerves. Chiropractic care focuses on the way your spine and nervous system work together, which can be an important part of your healing plan after an accident.

Common Auto Accident Injuries We See

Every patient and every crash is different, but some of the most common concerns we see include:

  • Whiplash and neck pain
  • Mid-back and low back pain
  • Headaches after an accident
  • Shoulder and hip pain from the seat belt or impact
  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or legs
  • Increased pain when sitting, standing, or turning your head

Even if your pain seems “small,” checking it now may help prevent bigger problems later.

What to Expect at Your Visit

From the moment you walk in, our goal is to help you feel comfortable and cared for. Your visit will usually include:

  1. Consultation and History
    We listen to your story—how the accident happened, what you feel now, and how it affects your work, sleep, and daily life. This helps us understand your needs and goals.
  2. Thorough Exam and Imaging (When Needed)
    A detailed exam helps us check your spine, muscles, and nerves. If needed, we may recommend X-rays or other tests to better understand your injuries and to rule out serious problems.
  3. Clear, Simple Explanations
    We explain what we find in plain language. You will know which areas are injured, what that means, and which options may help.
  4. A Personalized Care Plan
    If chiropractic care is right for you, we create a plan tailored to your condition and comfort level. Your plan may include:

    • Gentle chiropractic adjustments
    • Cox Flexion Distraction Technique for certain back conditions
    • Spinal decompression, when appropriate
    • Home care tips, stretches, and advice to protect your spine

    We move at your pace, always explaining what we are doing and why.
