This can be your Primary Care Physician or a Chiropractic Physician. Even if you don’t feel like there is much pain, you should still be seen to make sure there are no underlying injuries and to document your condition. You can schedule an appointment with a Chiropractor up to a few months after the initial accident, although the longer you wait to get treated the more complicated the case usually is in regards to both your injuries and insurance covering treatment.

Take responsibility: You know your body better than anyone else. If you don’t feel right, but your medical doctor says, “You’re fine, it will get better with time and drugs,” then get a second opinion. Many times medical doctors utilize prescription drugs or physical therapy, but this doesn’t treat the underlying cause if your bones and joints and out of alignment and your body movement is compensating. Our treatment involves the natural healing approach, so you can have long-lasting relief. Most injuries don’t heal properly without professional medical help.

Always be careful when talking to insurance adjusters; although many are good at their job and want to help, it is not uncommon for some of them to be misleading. Yes, they are friendly, but remember their job is ultimately to get the insurance company to pay as little it can. Usually it is best to let your doctor or lawyer do the communicating with the claims adjuster, as it is not uncommon for people to misspeak, which can significant affect the claim. 

Most attorneys recommend stopping all social media until the case is settled. Things you put out to the public can be used against you in regards to how the accident has affected you; it is the easiest way for insurance companies to hurt your claim. 

Example: a driver boasts on Facebook about “being fine” after an accident, however pain doesn’t begin until a week later. This person also deletes the post about “being fine.” Insurance can deny treatment because the person “wasn’t hurt from the accident” and the deleting of the post may be considered by court to be “spoliation” (deliberately destroying of evidence related to the case).
