Auto Injury Chiropractor in Downtown Miami & Brickell

Trusted Auto Accident Chiropractic Care in Miami for Over 20 Years

If you’ve been in a car accident in Downtown Miami or Brickell, it’s important to get checked right away—even if you’re not in pain yet. Dr. Owen has been helping auto injury patients in South Florida recover naturally for over two decades, using safe and effective chiropractic care without risky drugs or unnecessary surgeries.

Auto accidents can cause postural distortions, nerve pressure, whiplash, and damage to the spinal cord, joints, muscles, and ligaments. These injuries put stress on your brain and nervous system, often leading to pain, reduced mobility, and even premature aging if left untreated.

Why You Should See a Chiropractor After a Car Accident

Even low-speed collisions (as little as 5 mph) can create hidden injuries such as:

  • Whiplash

  • Concussion or head trauma

  • Nerve compression and spinal cord stress

  • Disc injuries (herniated or bulging discs)

  • Torn ligaments or muscle damage

Some patients feel no immediate pain after an accident, even with serious injuries like concussions or ligament tears. That’s why a complete chiropractic, orthopedic, and neurological exam is essential to detect and document injuries early.

At our Downtown Miami / Brickell chiropractic office, we specialize in diagnosing and treating auto accident injuries, including whiplash, concussion recovery, and spinal cord stress.

Common Symptoms After an Auto Injury

  • Neck & shoulder pain

  • Headaches or migraines

  • Lower back pain / sciatica

  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness

  • Knee or joint pain

  • Muscle spasms & stiffness

  • Anxiety, depression, or insomnia

These symptoms may appear days or weeks after the accident, which is why you should not delay care.

Insurance Coverage for Auto Accident Treatment in Florida

The good news is that your auto insurance policy covers chiropractic treatment after an accident—whether you were the driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian. Florida law requires you to see a doctor within 14 days of your accident to qualify for Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits.

Our clinic helps patients with all insurance paperwork so you can focus on healing. Coverage may also extend to lost wages, missed workdays, or even hiring help while you recover.

Why Choose Chiropractic Instead of Medication

Pain pills only mask symptoms—they don’t fix the underlying injury. Ignoring spinal damage can lead to long-term pain and health problems. Chiropractic care goes beyond short-term pain relief:

  • Realigns the spine & restores posture

  • Reduces inflammation naturally

  • Restores nerve and spinal cord function

  • Promotes long-term healing without dependency on drugs

At Westside Chiropractic Center, we use proven treatments such as:

  • Spinal adjustments

  • Flexion/distraction therapy

  • Corrective exercises

  • Massage therapy

  • Laser therapy

  • Electrotherapy & traction

Our goal is to treat the root cause of your pain so you can recover fully and return to your normal life.
