Auto Accident Injury Care in Jacksonville, FL

Expert Chiropractic Care After a Car Accident

Even a minor car accident can cause significant injury to your spine, muscles, and nervous system—often without immediate symptoms. Whiplash, soft tissue damage, and joint misalignments can lead to chronic pain, stiffness, headaches, or radiating nerve pain if left untreated.

At Dodd Chiropractic Clinic in Jacksonville, FL, we’ve been helping patients recover from auto accident injuries for over 40 years. As a third-generation, family-owned chiropractic clinic, we specialize in gentle, effective treatments to relieve pain, restore function, and support long-term healing after a crash.

Comprehensive Injury Evaluation and Treatment

We begin with a detailed exam and health history focused on your injury. Our in-house X-ray machine allows us to assess spinal alignment and rule out fractures or instability. If necessary, we can refer you for an MRI to evaluate soft tissue or disc injuries.

Your treatment plan may include:

  • Chiropractic adjustments to correct misalignments

  • Soft tissue therapy to reduce inflammation and scar tissue

  • Gentle stretching and mobility exercises

  • Ergonomic coaching to support healing and prevent reinjury

We use safe, evidence-informed techniques to reduce pain and speed recovery—without medications or invasive procedures.
