Florida's 14-day rule. Florida's no-fault law asks you to get first medical care within 14 days of a crash to use your PIP benefits. If it's been less than 14 days, book now, even if the pain feels mild. Your insurer can confirm the details of your policy.

- Neck pain or stiffness after a crash, even a small one

What care involves
Four steps, explained as we go
-
Step 01
Screen first
We look for signs you need imaging or a medical doctor before we treat. If you need the ER, we tell you, and we help you get there.
-
Step 02
Gentle early care
Early care after a crash is gentle: mobilization, soft-tissue work, and light movement. Adjustments come later, and only if they suit you.
-
Step 03
Clear records
Detailed notes after every visit, so your insurer has what it needs and you don't get stuck in back-and-forth.
-
Step 04
Direct billing
We bill your PIP coverage directly and tell you up front about any deductible or co-pay.
What to expect
How long it usually takes
Varies by injury
Re-checked every 2 weeks, with progress in writing
Crash injuries are less predictable than everyday back pain. We set short goals, re-test often, and share the results with you.
