Accident Injury Care in Raleigh
Car accidents can be one of the most frightening and confusing experiences that a person can go through. Often the first thing that a person is concerned about following an automobile accident is the damage to their vehicle or their insurance coverage. This results in them neglecting the most important part, which is their individual health. Seeking proper care in a timely fashion is the most vital aspect in determining the overall outcome of your condition. This article is here to help you understand how chiropractors help car accident patients in Raleigh. We hope it helps you to avoid the long term problems we so often see.
FAQ's We Hear from Auto Accident Victims in Raleigh
Our team has 33 years of experience in evaluating and providing state of the art chiropractic care and physio-therapeutics to injured drivers. Our advanced care is gentle, results oriented and well documented for attorneys and insurance adjusters.
YES! Chiropractic care is covered, and you do not need a referral to be seen in our office. North Carolina Law and General Statue 58-50-30 requires that auto liability insurance and Med Pay cover chiropractic care.
Good News! North Carolina Law requires that your insurance carries “Uninsured Motorist” coverage. Insurance carriers typically “do not” penalize you or increase your rate for using this coverage unless you were at fault.
Our advanced, computer assisted chiropractic care is preferred by many car accident victims because there is “no twisting, popping or cracking” sensitive spinal joints after whiplash trauma. Gentle impulses of soothing energy adjust and mobilize spinal joints for effective relief and better healing.
Not all of our patients retain an attorney and you do not have to have an attorney to be seen in our office. We do not dispense legal advice however we can refer you to attorneys who have been very successful in representing other accident victims. These attorneys all offer a FREE CONSULTATION. One point to remember! Insurance Adjusters are highly trained professionals who represent the insurance company’s interest, not yours. Additionally, a skilled attorney can free you from the stress and risks of dealing with aggressive insurance adjusters, so you can focus on getting well.
It is not uncommon for accident victims to hear this false narrative from insurance adjusters. “You can’t be seriously injured because your car damage is minimal.” Research has proven serious bodily injury can occur in car accidents with minimal vehicular damage. Don’t let insurance adjusters intimidate or bully you. Property damage is not an accurate indicator of bodily injury.
CADS or Whiplash, medically known as Cervical Acceleration/Deceleration Syndrome has been proven to be a serious condition that can lead to chronic pain and permanent injury.

The 5 Most Dangerous & Costly Mistakes Many Accident Victims Make:
MISTAKE #1
Ignoring your body’s warning symptoms or feeling guilty about seeking help!
Your body has an early warning system and just because there are no cuts or broken bones it does not mean you haven’t been seriously injured. You should never feel guilty about seeking care after an injury. Protect your health and family who depends on you.
MISTAKE #2
Believing drugs and pain pills will help you heal normally!
Many prescription and over-the-counter drugs have serious side effect and can actually interfere with the normal healing of soft-tissue injury.
MISTAKE #3
Not getting “corrective care” before scar tissue and abnormal healing occurs!
It is an absolute myth and falsehood that seriously injured tissues: ligaments, muscles, discs and nerves can heal and return to normal on their own. Just like a bruised apple, it never returns to its original state.
MISTAKE #4
Not knowing how to protect your basic rights before it is too late!
Do not kid yourself! Insurance adjusters are working for the insurance companies…not you! Some adjusters even use high pressure tactics and attempt to “quick-settle” your claim before you can receive treatment you may need and be legally entitled to receive.
MISTAKE #5
Believing all chiropractors are equally experienced in treating soft tissue injuries!
Experience matters! Not all chiropractors in Raleigh have had extensive post-graduate training and years of experience treating soft tissue injuries. Complex paperwork and documentation is required when dealing with attorneys and adjusters so your rights to be compensated for reasonable and necessary care are not jeopardized. Raleigh, NC Chiropractor Dr. Chris Johnson has successfully cared for thousands of accident victims.
