The Crash Was Stressful Enough. Your Recovery Shouldn’t Be.
If you have recently been in an auto accident, your life probably feels like it has been turned upside down. You are dealing with car repairs, police reports, rental cars, and insurance calls, all while trying to manage pain that seems to be getting worse by the day.
At Elwart Family Chiropractic, we understand that the stress of an accident can be just as damaging as the impact itself.
That is why we have built a dedicated Auto Injury Concierge Process. When you walk through our doors at 42958 Garfield Rd, your only job is to get better. We handle everything else.
The number one reason people delay treatment after a crash is fear of the cost and the paperwork. In Michigan, the No-Fault laws can be confusing. You might be wondering: Will my rates go up? Who pays for this? What is a claim number?
We are experts in the administrative side of Personal Injury cases. Here is exactly how we support you:
You don’t need to spend hours on hold. We verify your benefits and set up the claim directly with your auto insurance carrier (Personal Injury Protection/PIP).
Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts. We are trained to document medical necessity. We handle the communication with adjusters to ensure your treatment is approved and covered.
You will not be stuck organizing a mountain of receipts. We bill the insurance company directly.
If you have legal representation, we provide them with the pristine, detailed medical documentation they need to build a strong case for your settlement. If you don’t have an attorney but need one, we can recommend trusted local experts we work with regularly.
Bottom line: You focus on healing. We fight for your coverage.
“I felt fine right after the crash, but now I can barely turn my head.”
We hear this almost every day. It is called Latency, and it is the most dangerous aspect of car accidents.
When you are in a collision, your body pumps full of adrenaline. This natural painkiller masks injuries for hours, days, or even weeks. But while you feel “okay,” the damage to your soft tissue is already done.
Whiplash Explained: Even in a low-speed fender bender (5-10 mph), your head can be whipped backward and forward with a force equivalent to catching a 100-lb bag of cement. This causes:
If left untreated: These injuries heal with scar tissue (fibrosis), leading to chronic stiffness, permanent loss of range of motion, and early-onset arthritis.
The Golden Rule: Regardless of how you feel, you need a spinal check-up within 72 hours of an accident to document injuries and prevent long-term damage.
We don’t just give you a brace and send you home. We use advanced technology to repair the damage.
In Michigan, your insurance rates are generally not allowed to increase simply because you used the Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits you already pay for, provided you were not at fault.
The ER is designed to save lives, to check for broken bones and internal bleeding. They are not specialists in soft tissue whiplash or spinal alignment. They often miss the micro-tears that cause chronic pain later.
Absolutely. You do not need an attorney to receive medical treatment. If your case becomes complex, we can guide you, but your health comes first.
For most Michigan auto accident cases, your auto insurance covers 100% of the necessary medical treatment associated with the accident. We will verify this for you on your first visit before we do anything.
It is never too late to start healing, but it is important to start documenting immediately. The longer you wait, the harder it is to link the injury to the accident for insurance purposes. Call us today.
You have enough to worry about with your car and your daily life. Let us take the burden of the pain and the paperwork off your shoulders.
