Car Accident Chiropractor in Denver, CO

Fast Recovery After a Crash with Dr. Mac

Even a "minor" car accident can cause serious hidden injuries — like whiplash, joint misalignment, or nerve irritation — that don’t show up until days or weeks later. Left untreated, these injuries can lead to chronic pain, poor mobility, and long-term spinal dysfunction.

At Buffalo Spine Sports Chiropractic in Denver, CO, Dr. Mac offers targeted, evidence-based chiropractic care to help car accident victims recover safely and fully. Whether you’ve been in a fender bender or a high-speed collision, early treatment can make all the difference.

Why You Should See a Chiropractor After a Car Accident

  • Symptoms may take days or weeks to appear

  • Muscle and joint damage can worsen without care

  • Early intervention prevents chronic dysfunction

  • Chiropractic is drug-free and non-invasive

  • Proper documentation helps with insurance and legal claims

Whiplash, back pain, headaches, shoulder tension, and hip misalignment are extremely common after car accidents — even at speeds under 10 mph.

Dr. Mac focuses on functional diagnosis and recovery — not just masking pain.

Common Injuries We Treat Post-Accident

Whiplash

Soft tissue damage from rapid back-and-forth neck motion. Often causes neck stiffness, headaches, dizziness, and muscle spasms.

Cervical & Lumbar Sprain/Strain

Micro-tears and inflammation in the neck and low back supporting structures. May affect posture, sleep, and movement.

Joint Misalignment

The impact may cause misalignment in the spine or extremities, leading to pinched nerves, mobility loss, or radiating pain.

Concussion-Related Neck Tension

Some head injuries involve concurrent cervical injury. We assess both the spine and neurological signs.

Shoulder, Hip & Rib Dysfunction

Seatbelt or airbag trauma may lead to joint or soft tissue strain beyond the spine.
