Personal Injury Chiropractic Care at Aligned Life Chiropractic and Wellness
Welcome to Aligned Life Chiropractic and Wellness, where your recovery and well-being are our top priorities. If you’ve been involved in an accident—whether it’s a car crash, slip and fall, or workplace injury—our team, led by Dr. Devin Shea DC, is here to help you navigate the path to healing. We specialize in personal injury chiropractic care, focusing on non-invasive, holistic treatments designed to alleviate pain, restore function, and prevent long-term issues. Below, we’ll explain how you can receive this care through our office, highlighting our unique approach to ensure you get back to living your best life.
Why Choose Chiropractic Care After an Accident?
Accidents can cause hidden injuries like whiplash, spinal misalignments, soft tissue damage, & muscle strains that may not show symptoms immediately. Ignoring these can lead to chronic pain, reduced mobility, & complications down the road. Chiropractic care addresses the root cause of these issues without relying on medications or surgery. At Aligned Life Chiropractic and Wellness, we tailor our treatments to your specific needs, helping you recover faster and more effectively. Our personal injury care is often covered by insurance, including auto insurance policies with personal injury protection (PIP) or through third-party liability claims. We handle the paperwork so you can focus on healing.
How to Receive Personal Injury Chiropractic Care Through Our Office
Getting started is simple and straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you access our services:
Contact Us for a Free Consultation
Reach out to our office via phone, email, or our website contact form. We’ll schedule a no-obligation initial consultation to discuss your accident, symptoms, and medical history. During this visit, Dr. Devin Shea DC will perform a thorough evaluation, including a physical exam and any necessary imaging (like X-rays) to assess your injuries.
Verify Insurance and Coverage
Our team will work with your insurance provider to confirm coverage for personal injury care. In many cases, treatments are billed directly to the at-fault party’s insurance or your own policy, meaning little to no out-of-pocket costs for you. If you’re working with an attorney, we can coordinate with them to ensure seamless documentation for your claim.
Connect with a Trusted Attorney
If you don’t already have legal representation, we can refer you to one of our preferred personal injury attorneys. These experienced professionals specialize in accident cases and can help you navigate the legal process, ensuring you receive fair compensation for your injuries and losses. Our trusted attorneys work closely with our office to streamline communication, making it easier to document your treatment and support your case. Simply let us know during your consultation if you’d like a referral, and we’ll connect you with the right professional to handle your claim.
Develop a Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on your evaluation, we’ll create a custom plan that may include a combination of our unique services (detailed below). Treatments are gentle, evidence-based, and aimed at reducing inflammation, improving alignment, and strengthening your body.
Begin Your Treatments
Attend your scheduled sessions, which are typically 2-3 times per week initially, tapering as you improve. Each visit is designed to build on the last, with progress tracking to ensure optimal results.
Monitor Progress and Follow-Up
We’ll regularly assess your improvement and adjust your plan as needed. Once you’re feeling better, we’ll provide maintenance recommendations and exercises to prevent re-injury. We also offer documentation for insurance or legal purposes to support your recovery claim.
If you’re experiencing pain or discomfort after an accident, don’t wait—early intervention is key to a full recovery. Call us today at (858) 521-8022 or visit our office to get started. Our Unique Qualities in Personal Injury Care
What Sets Us Apart
What sets Aligned Life Chiropractic and Wellness apart is our comprehensive, patient-centered approach. We combine traditional and modern techniques to deliver results. Here’s what you can expect:
Chiropractic Adjustments & Techniques
Dr. Devin Shea DC uses precise manual adjustments to realign your spine and joints, reducing nerve interference and promoting natural healing. For those who prefer a gentler method or have specific conditions, we offer instrument-based adjustments using tools like the Activator or Impulse device for targeted, low-force corrections.
Massage Therapy
Our licensed massage therapists provide therapeutic massages to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and accelerate tissue repair. This complements chiropractic adjustments by addressing soft tissue injuries common in accidents.
Personally Designed Exercises
No two patients are the same, so we create individualized exercise programs to strengthen weakened areas, improve flexibility, and enhance stability. These may include core strengthening, stretching routines, or functional exercises tailored to your lifestyle and injury.
Spinal Traction
Using advanced traction tables, we gently decompress the spine to alleviate pressure on discs and nerves. This is particularly effective for conditions like herniated discs or sciatica resulting from accidents, helping to reduce pain and restore proper spinal function.
Our integrated services work together to provide faster relief and long-term wellness, all under one roof.
