FAQ'S : Auto accidents, pain, and how Acupuncture can help you

  • Does Acupuncture treat pain? 

Yes Acupuncture definitely can help reduce or eliminate your pain! Here is how acupuncture helps treat pain:
    1.    Reducing inflammation
    2.    Increasing blood flow to the affected areas
    3.    Improving range of motion
    4.    Stimulates the nervous system, releasing natural painkillers (endorphins) 

 

  • Do I need a doctor's referral to get acupuncture after a car accident?

In Oregon, you do not need a referral from a primary care physician to begin acupuncture treatment after an auto accident. You can schedule an initial evaluation directly with your licensed acupuncturist to diagnose and document your injuries immediately.

  • Does auto insurance cover acupuncture for injury treatments?

Yes, auto insurance typically covers acupuncture treatments if you have Personal Injury Protection (PIP) or Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage. We accept these auto insurance policies, which often cover your medical rehabilitation at 100% with no out-of-pocket costs or deductibles.

  • How soon after a car crash should I seek acupuncture treatment?

You should seek a medical evaluation within 72 hours of a car crash. Many soft tissue injuries, such as whiplash, neck strain, and lower back pain, do not show symptoms immediately due to adrenaline. Seeking care early ensures accurate diagnosis and prevents insurance adjusters from denying your claim due to a "gap in care."

  • Can acupuncture help with whiplash and soft tissue injuries?

Acupuncture is highly effective for treating whiplash, muscle guarding, and soft tissue damage caused by auto accidents. The treatments reduce systemic inflammation, alleviate acute muscle spasms, improve blood circulation to damaged tissues, and naturally regulate the nervous system trauma without the use of heavy medications.

  • What should I bring to my first appointment after an auto accident?

Please bring your auto insurance company name, your auto insurance claim number, the name and contact information of your insurance claims adjuster, and a copy of the police report if available. If you are working with a personal injury attorney, please bring their office contact information as well.
