Targeted relief for deep muscle pain after a crash

Trigger Point Injections

Trigger point injections are used to treat tight, painful knots in muscles that can develop after a car accident. These trigger points restrict movement and cause ongoing pain, even when other treatments are helping.

The injection is placed directly into the tight muscle to help it relax, reduce inflammation, and restore normal function. This treatment is commonly used when muscle pain is limiting your progress.

Why it matters after a crash

Car accidents often cause muscles to tighten as a protective response. Over time, those muscles may not release on their own. This can lead to chronic pain, limited range of motion, and discomfort that spreads to other areas of the body.

Trigger point injections allow us to address muscle pain at the source. By releasing those tight areas, we can help other treatments like chiropractic care and rehab therapy work more effectively.

What to expect during treatment

Before treatment, we'll evaluate your symptoms and locate the specific muscles causing pain. The injection itself is quick and typically well tolerated. Most patients describe it as brief pressure rather than pain.

You may notice improved movement or reduced pain shortly after treatment. We'll explain what to expect and how this treatment fits into your overall recovery plan.

Joint injections for post-accident inflammation

Joint injections are minimally invasive treatments used to reduce pain and inflammation in injured joints after an auto accident. They typically involve placing medication, such as corticosteroids and/or a numbing agent, directly into the joint.

This helps relieve pain, improve movement, and support healing in areas that may not respond to other treatments alone. The procedure is quick, done in-office, and most patients return to normal activity shortly after.
