Car Accident Recovery in Lynnwood, WA

Personalized, Physician-Guided Care to Help You Heal After a Collision

If you’ve been in a car accident, you may be dealing with pain, stiffness, headaches, limited movement, or symptoms that don’t make sense. You are not alone. Car accident injuries often show up in layers, and many patients don’t know where to start.

Why Car Accident Injuries Need Specialized Care

Car accidents create forces the body is not built to absorb. Even “minor” collisions can cause the following:

  • Whiplash and neck sprains

  • Headaches or migraines

  • Low back pain

  • Shoulder, rib, or hip pain

  • Disc irritation

  • Nerve sensitivity

  • Muscle guarding and fascia tightness

  • Movement pattern dysfunction

Symptoms often appear hours or days later, and without proper treatment, they can lead to chronic pain or long-term mobility problems.

Our Approach to Recovering After a Car Accident

We Specialize in Chiropractic Care, Soft Tissue Therapy, and Active Rehabilitation

Our integrated approach helps you:

  • Reduce pain and inflammation

  • Restore mobility

  • Prevent long-term complications

  • Recover strength and stability

  • Feel confident moving again

Relief First. Function Next. Full Recovery Always.

Here’s what your car accident recovery journey looks like:

Your treatment at Head 2 Toe is guided by a team of chiropractic physicians and rehab specialists who understand accident mechanics and how the body responds to trauma.

1. Car Accident Assessment & Movement Exam

We start with a detailed evaluation that includes:

  • Incident + impact history

  • Pain pattern and symptom mapping

  • Range of motion testing

  • Muscle and fascia tension assessment

  • Chiropractic + orthopedic testing

  • Movement and stability screening

This helps us find the root causes, not just the symptoms.

2. Chiropractic Care for Alignment & Nervous System Relief

After a collision, joints often become restricted or irritated. Chiropractic adjustments help:

  • Reduce pain

  • Improve mobility

  • Lower muscle tension

  • Calm the nervous system

  • Improve healing capacity

3. Soft Tissue Therapy to Release Trauma From the Muscles & Fascia

Car accidents create protective muscle guarding and tension that can persist for months.

We address this with:

  • Myofascial release

  • Cupping therapy

  • Instrument-assisted soft tissue

  • Trigger point release

  • Stretch therapy

These treatments reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and help muscles return to normal function.

4. Advanced Recovery Tools (Depending on Your Case)

Car accident injuries respond extremely well when passive and active treatments are combined.

Your plan may include:

  • Shockwave therapy (for stubborn tissue pain or chronic inflammation)

  • Cold laser therapy (for swelling, nerve irritation, and tissue repair)

  • BFR training (safe strength rebuilding after immobilization or pain)

These tools create faster healing when traditional care isn’t enough.

5. Movement-Based Rehab to Restore Strength & Stability

Unlike traditional PT, our rehab is not insurance-restricted or protocol-bound.

We rebuild:

  • Neck stability

  • Posture and scapular control

  • Core stability

  • Hip and spine coordination

  • Strength and movement confidence

This is what prevents long-term pain and flare-ups.

Here Are a Few Google Reviews From Our Car Accident Patients

Karlie F.

You won’t find better doctors than these people. I’ve been to lots of chiropractors in my life time. Dr Lee and Dr Tim know what they are talking about and have helped me overcome chronic pain as well as pain from a car accident. Their goal is to help you get better and not have to come see them every week. They will teach you how to take care of yourself as well with at home techniques so you don’t have to rely on them all the time to feel better.
