Auto accident injuries

Get relief fast from accident injuries

Even when the pain feels minor, neck stiffness, headaches and back pain can get worse over time – and some symptoms only show up hours or days after the crash.

An early evaluation lets your doctor document your injuries, start the right treatment and help prevent long-term problems. At Spinal Solutions Chiropractic we focus on care after an accident, so you can recover safely and protect your insurance coverage.

Neck & back pain

Headaches

Meet the doctor

Dr. Dean Hegarty, D.C.

At 14, a severely bulging disc left Dr. Dean facing possible surgery. After about eight chiropractic visits he was moving again – and he knew what he wanted to do with his life.

With more than 35 years in practice, Dr. Dean is a trusted chiropractor who focuses on the muscular and structural causes of back and neck pain, so you get lasting results – not just temporary relief.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about accident care, insurance and your first visit.

Still have a question?

Call us – we’re happy to help you before your first visit.

Call (947) 219-5100
How soon after a car accident should I see a chiropractor?

As soon as possible – ideally within a few days, even if the pain feels minor. Neck stiffness, headaches and back pain often appear hours or days later, and an early exam lets us document your injuries for your insurance claim.

Does car insurance pay for chiropractic care in Michigan?

In most cases, yes. With no-fault auto insurance, your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) usually covers accident-related care up to the coverage level you chose – regardless of who was at fault. Call us and we’ll help you check your coverage.

Do I need an appointment?

No – walk-ins are welcome. Calling ahead at (947) 219-5100 helps us keep your wait as short as possible.

What happens at my first visit?

We start with a consultation and exam, analyze your posture and explain your condition. In many cases your first treatment – an adjustment, stretching and targeted muscle work – happens on the same visit.

Will I need X-rays?

Not always. Some conditions need X-rays before treatment, but in many cases care can begin right away. If X-rays are needed, they’re an additional cost.

Do you treat whiplash?

Yes. Whiplash is one of the most common injuries after a car accident, and whiplash treatment is one of our specialties. We combine chiropractic adjustments, muscle work and stretching to reduce pain and restore normal neck movement.
