Massage after a car accident
After a collision, an assessment helps determine what care is appropriate for your injury. Massage may be part of a treatment plan for muscle discomfort, alongside chiropractic care when suitable. Let us know when the accident happened, how you are feeling and whether you have already been evaluated.
Massage works with the body's soft tissues and may provide short-term relief for some neck and shoulder pain. Benefits vary, and it should not delay medical evaluation of a new injury. Read the NIH's overview of massage evidence and safety.
A visit that starts with your concerns
Discuss your symptoms, medical history and goals with your provider. Mention recent injuries, health conditions and medications, and ask about the recommended approach. Let your therapist know about any concerns with pressure or discomfort during a session.
You do not need to decide on a treatment plan before contacting us. Ask whether massage, chiropractic care or a combination makes sense for you. Learn more about our approach to car accident care and what to expect at your first visit.
Insurance and preparing for your visit
If your visit relates to an accident, have your insurer's name and any existing claim information available when you call. Ask about costs, coverage and any referral or documentation requirements before your appointment. Benefits depend on your policy and the care you need; our PIP insurance page explains the basics.

Yes. Mention the collision when you contact the clinic. An assessment can help determine whether massage is appropriate or another evaluation is needed first.
How many sessions will I need?
There is no set number for everyone. Discuss your goals, the proposed plan and how progress will be reviewed with your provider.
Will my auto insurance cover massage?
