From the busy streets of Newark to the residential roads of Montclair, accidents happen in Essex County every day. While car damage is often the most visible concern after a collision, the hidden toll it takes on your body can be far more serious.
At NJ Injury Center, led by Dr. Jorge De La Torre, we specialize in helping Essex County residents recover from auto accident injuries—whether they’re dealing with immediate pain or symptoms that show up days later. Our goal is to restore your health, prevent long-term complications, and get you back to living life without limits.
Why Hidden Injuries Are a Real Risk
It’s not uncommon for Essex County drivers to walk away from a crash thinking they’re injury-free—only to start experiencing headaches, stiffness, or radiating pain days later. This delay happens because your body produces adrenaline during an accident, which can mask pain signals.
Common hidden injuries we treat include:
- Whiplash – Neck strain causing pain, headaches, and reduced range of motion
- Spinal misalignment – Shifts in vertebrae that can lead to nerve compression
- Soft tissue damage – Muscle and ligament strain causing swelling and stiffness
- Herniated discs – Discs pressing on nerves, leading to numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
Left untreated, these conditions can worsen over time, leading to chronic pain or permanent mobility loss.
Why Chiropractic Care Works for Auto Accident Injuries
Chiropractic treatment addresses the root causes of pain rather than masking symptoms with medication. For Essex County patients, we design customized care plans that may include:
- Gentle spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment
- Soft tissue therapy to reduce inflammation and break up scar tissue
- Rehabilitative exercises to improve strength and flexibility
- Postural and ergonomic guidance to prevent future strain
Our goal is not just to relieve pain but to help your body heal fully and function at its best.
PIP Insurance and Legal Support for Essex County Patients
New Jersey’s Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance typically covers chiropractic care after an auto accident, regardless of who was at fault. This means Essex County drivers can get the treatment they need without worrying about unexpected medical bills.
At NJ Injury Center, we:
- Handle PIP paperwork from start to finish
- Provide detailed medical documentation for insurance and legal cases
- Coordinate directly with your personal injury attorney, if you have one
This process ensures your medical and legal needs are supported every step of the way.
