Motor Vehicle Collision Care
A Brain-Based Approach to Car Accident Recovery
At NeuroBalance Chiropractic in Olympia, our approach to post-accident chiropractic care looks beyond the location of pain alone. We consider how an injury may affect movement, balance, coordination, and nervous system function following a motor vehicle collision.
Depending on your individual presentation, your evaluation may include assessment of:
- spinal and joint mobility
- muscle tension and movement patterns
- balance and vestibular function
- eye movement and visual-motor coordination
- proprioception and body awareness
These findings help us develop an individualized chiropractic care plan based on your symptoms, examination findings, functional limitations, and recovery goals.
Treatment May Include:
Depending on your individual examination findings, symptoms, and functional needs, chiropractic care may include:
- gentle chiropractic adjustments
- instrument-assisted adjusting
- soft tissue therapy
- movement and coordination exercises
- vestibular and balance exercises
- proprioceptive and nervous-system-focused rehabilitation exercises
Every treatment plan is individualized based on the patient's symptoms, health history, examination findings, functional needs, and recovery goals.
Complex Post-Accident Cases
Following a motor vehicle collision, some individuals experience symptoms that extend beyond neck or back pain. At NeuroBalance Chiropractic, we work with patients who may report concerns such as:
- persistent dizziness or feelings of imbalance
- headaches
- TMJ or jaw discomfort
- post-concussion-related symptoms
- changes in coordination, movement, or body awareness
Our brain-based chiropractic approach considers how movement, balance, visual-motor coordination, proprioception, and musculoskeletal function may be contributing to a patient's overall presentation.
Care is individualized based on examination findings and may include chiropractic care and rehabilitative exercises when clinically appropriate. When symptoms suggest the need for evaluation or treatment outside the scope of chiropractic care, referral to an appropriate healthcare provider may be recommended.
Working With Personal Injury Cases
NeuroBalance Chiropractic works with patients receiving chiropractic care following motor vehicle accidents and personal injury claims.
When appropriate and with necessary patient authorization, we can assist with coordination involving:
- personal injury attorneys
- auto insurance and injury claims
- clinical documentation related to accident injuries
- treatment records and requested reports
Our goal is to maintain clear, accurate, and timely documentation of examination findings, treatment provided, functional changes, and the patient's response to care throughout the course of treatment.
