Conditions & Injuries
Auto Accident Injury Care in Colorado
Chiropractic, physical therapy and medical care for whiplash, back injuries and soft tissue trauma after a collision.
A car accident does not have to be dramatic to injure you. Low-speed collisions routinely produce whiplash, disc irritation and soft tissue trauma that surface hours or days later, long after the adrenaline has worn off and the police report has been filed.
Power Health Colorado treats crash injuries every day. Our chiropractors and physical therapists work side by side with medical providers, so you get pain relief, structured rehabilitation and the medical documentation your claim requires — all from one coordinated team at our Denver metro clinics.
Symptoms We See
- Neck pain, stiffness or reduced rotation
- Headaches starting at the base of the skull
- Mid or low back pain and muscle spasm
- Numbness, tingling or weakness in an arm or leg
- Dizziness, brain fog or difficulty concentrating
- Disrupted sleep, anxiety or avoidance of driving
How we treat it
Chiropractic, Physical Therapy and Medical Care Together
Most patients do best when hands-on care, rehabilitation and medical treatment run in parallel rather than one after the other.
Chiropractic Treatment Path
- Examination and imaging referral to identify injured segments and rule out serious pathology.
- Adjustment and mobilization to restore motion in joints locked down by the collision.
- Soft tissue and medical massage work to release protective muscle guarding.
- Progressive reduction in visit frequency as symptoms and objective findings improve.
Physical Therapy Treatment Path
- Baseline testing of range of motion, strength and functional tolerance.
- Manual therapy plus graded exercise to rebuild deep neck and core stabilizers.
- Neuromuscular re-education for the guarding and altered movement patterns crashes create.
- Work, driving and activity retraining so you can return to normal life with confidence.
Medical & Pain Management
- Medical evaluation, diagnosis and referral for advanced imaging when indicated.
- Targeted injections when pain is blocking progress in active care.
- Neuro rehab for concussion, dizziness and visual symptoms.
- Behavioral health support for post-accident anxiety and sleep disruption.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after a car accident should I be examined?
Within 24 to 72 hours if you can. Early documentation protects both your recovery and your claim, and many injuries do not become symptomatic until day two or three.
Should I see a chiropractor or a physical therapist after a crash?
Most crash patients benefit from both. Chiropractic care restores joint motion and reduces pain quickly; physical therapy rebuilds the strength and control that keeps the improvement. In our clinics you get both from one coordinated team.
Will my auto insurance cover treatment?
Colorado medical payments coverage commonly applies to accident-related care. Our team verifies your benefits and handles the billing coordination so you can focus on recovery.
Do I need an attorney to be treated here?
No. We treat patients with and without legal representation and provide the same thorough documentation either way.
