Auto Injury Chiropractor in Dallas, TX
If you've been in a car accident in Dallas, the most important thing you can do is get evaluated quickly — even if you feel fine. After a collision, your body floods with adrenaline, and that can hide the pain of soft-tissue injuries for hours or even days. By the time the stiffness and headaches set in, the injury has often had time to worsen. At Action Chiropractic, Dr. Corey Skinner has spent his career helping Dallas drivers recover from exactly these injuries.
Why Choose Dr. Skinner for Auto Injury Care
Not every chiropractor is trained specifically in collision trauma. Dr. Skinner holds post-doctoral credentials in injury and trauma care, which makes the diagnosis and treatment of motor vehicle injuries a core focus of his practice — not an afterthought. He also maintains an extensive referral network of medical doctors, including pain management specialists, neurologists, and orthopedic surgeons, who collaborate on your care when your injuries call for it.
His approach is conservative and all-natural — no drugs, no surgery — built around what he calls a "whole person" philosophy: finding and treating the root cause of your pain rather than just masking symptoms. For auto injury patients, that means a recovery plan tailored to your specific injuries and documented thoroughly from your very first visit.
Common Car Accident Injuries We Treat
Even low-speed collisions can cause real damage to the spine, muscles, and connective tissue. The injuries we see most often after a crash include:
-
Whiplash — the sudden back-and-forth motion of the neck that's the most common auto injury. Learn about our whiplash treatment → CLICK HERE
​
-
Neck and back pain — often from strained muscles, ligament damage, or misaligned vertebrae. More on neck & back pain after a crash → CLICK HERE
​
-
Headaches and dizziness — frequently delayed-onset, appearing days after the accident. Read about post-accident headaches → CLICK HERE
​
-
Soft-tissue injuries — sprains, strains, and inflammation that don't show on an X-ray but cause lasting pain.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first appointment begins with a thorough evaluation: a detailed history of the collision, a physical and neurological exam, and imaging or specialist referrals when warranted. From there, Dr. Skinner builds a personalized treatment plan that may include chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, muscle and soft-tissue therapy, and progressive rehabilitation exercises. Just as importantly, every step is carefully documented — which matters both for your recovery and for any insurance or injury claim you may need to support later.
Worried About Cost? You May Pay Nothing Out of Pocket
One of the biggest reasons people delay care is fear of the bill — and that delay can hurt both your health and your claim. In Texas, there are several ways to get treated without paying out of pocket, including Personal Injury Protection (PIP), MedPay, and letters of protection when you're working with an attorney.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after a car accident should I see a chiropractor?
As soon as possible — ideally within the first few days. Adrenaline can mask injuries right after a crash, and early treatment gives you the best chance at a full recovery while clearly documenting your injuries from the start.
I feel fine after my accident. Do I still need to be checked?
Yes. Many auto injuries, including whiplash, have delayed symptoms that surface hours or days later. A quick evaluation can catch a hidden injury before it becomes a chronic problem.
Do you work with personal injury attorneys?
Yes. Dr. Skinner regularly treats patients who are working with attorneys and provides the detailed documentation your case requires. We can also coordinate with a referral network of medical specialists when needed.
Will my insurance cover chiropractic care after an accident?
In many cases, yes — through PIP, MedPay, or the at-fault driver's liability coverage. Many patients pay nothing out of pocket. We'll help you understand your options before treatment begins.
