About Auto Injury Recovery
If you have been in a car accident, you may or may not experience symptoms immediately following the event. Hopefully, you are not injured at all. However, if you experienced whiplash or other trauma symptoms following an accident, such as muscle pain, stiffness, soreness, or headaches, it is important to get treatment as soon as possible.
Our clinic specializes in treating whiplash and other auto injuries. Dr. Erickson has undergone special training with the Spine Research Institute of San Diego for the treatment of spinal and extremity injuries that can result from auto accidents. Even low speed crashes can cause symptoms, so if you are experiencing them, it is important to seek treatment even if the crash seemed relatively minor at the time. Studies have shown that the faster you receive treatment after an acute trauma, the better your body can heal from it.
Minnesota is a “no fault” state which requires all drivers to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) Insurance. This insurance pays for a driver and passenger’s medical bills, regardless of who caused the accident. This system is designed to help speed up claim payments for those seeking medical treatment. If you have been in an auto accident, bring your auto insurance card and claim information to your appointment. We will work with your auto insurance to pay for your treatment.
