Motor Vehicle Accidents

Don't Wait - Get Checked Out

Why You Should Seek Treatment Immediately After an Auto Accident

Car accidents can leave hidden damage that doesn't show up right away. Even if you feel fine, your body may have suffered internal trauma that surfaces days, or even weeks, later. At Thrive Spine & Sports Rehab, we urge anyone involved in a motor vehicle accident (MVA) to get checked out promptly.

No pain doesn't mean no injury. It's common to walk away from a crash without any pain… initially. But injuries like whiplash, soft tissue trauma, and spinal misalignments can lie dormant. Catching them early means a faster and more effective recovery.

Local Traffic Hazards

Common Injuries After Motor Vehicle Accidents

Accidents on busy roads—like Route 35 and Route 70, especially in congested summer traffic—can cause sudden stops and violent impacts. These are the most frequent MVA injuries we treat:

  • Whiplash and Neck Pain - Neck injuries are common from rear-end collisions, leading to stiffness, dizziness, and reduced range of motion.
  • Back Injuries and Herniated Discs - Compressed nerves or spinal discs can result in long-term pain if not addressed quickly.
  • Concussions and Headaches - Even minor jolts can cause concussions, which affect cognitive function and balance.
  • Soft Tissue Damage - Bruising, inflammation, and torn ligaments are often overlooked but play a big role in recovery.

Spinal adjustments restore alignment and reduce nerve pressure for faster healing.
Physical Therapy
Rebuild strength and restore movement with targeted exercises and rehabilitation.
Occupational Therapy
Regain function for daily activities and return-to-work support.
Acupuncture
A natural, holistic way to manage pain and promote healing without medications.

Is MVA Treatment Covered by Insurance?

Yes! In most cases, New Jersey personal injury protection (PIP) covers your therapy, even if you were at fault. We assist with all necessary documentation and billing to help ease the process.

Living near the Jersey Shore means driving through areas prone to collisions:

  • Busy Route 35 & Route 70 intersection – frequent fender benders
  • Parkway summer traffic – high speeds followed by sudden stops
  • Stop-and-go conditions on shore's one-way streets – tough on the neck and back

We understand these challenges and treat patients who've experienced crashes in all types of local traffic scenarios.
