Traffic Accident Auto Insurance Care

In many cases, pain is mild immediately after an accident, but worsens several days later in the neck, lower back, shoulders, upper back, and pelvis.
This occurs because the body tenses up at the moment of impact, leaving physical shock across muscles, ligaments, and spinal joints.

The issue is that this damage is not confined to superficial muscles alone.
The impact of a traffic accident can affect deep muscle groups, paraspinal tissues, joint mobility, and nerve tension.

Therefore, merely suppressing pain superficially in the early stages may leave behind persistent stiffness, pulling sensations, headaches, dizziness, and fatigue over time.
Conversely, adequate early recovery allows the body's natural self-healing capacity to take over effectively.

SOIAN Korean Medicine Clinic considers early recovery management to prevent sequelae and chronicity as the core of traffic accident care.

SOIAN Korean Medicine Clinic evaluates traffic accident sequelae from five major perspectives:

1. Acute Pain Type
Cases where neck, lower back, shoulder, back, or pelvic pain is prominent immediately after the accident.
We evaluate not only painful regions but also mobility restrictions and the extent of muscle tension.

2. Deep Muscle Injury Type
Cases where deep areas feel stiff rather than surface muscles, and pain recurs during prolonged sitting or movement.
We evaluate deep paraspinal muscles and joint articulation together.

3. Spinal & Neural Tension Type
Cases where neck or lower back pain is accompanied by pulling, numbness, or heaviness radiating down the arms or legs.
We determine whether this is simple muscular pain or if concurrent spinal and neurological tension exists.

4. Headache & Dizziness Accompanied Type
Cases where post-accident heavy head sensation, headache, dizziness, eye fatigue, or fogginess are accompanied.
We examine cervical perispinal tension and nervous system hypersensitivity together.

5. Chronic Risk Type
Cases where initial acute pain has decreased, yet discomfort persists in specific postures alongside lingering fatigue and stiffness.
We closely monitor recovery progress to prevent residual symptoms from becoming chronic.

Traffic accident injuries may not end with simple bruising or muscle knots.
Sudden impact disrupts normal biomechanical movement in the neck and lower back, leaving tension in deep muscles and ligaments surrounding the spine.

While pain is acute initially, surface pain subsides first as treatment progresses.
However, if deep tension and mobility limitations are not fully resolved at this point, stiffness, pulling, headaches, and fatigue may linger later on.

Rather than "treatment that merely relieves the painful spot,"
SOIAN Korean Medicine Clinic emphasizes treatment that thoroughly reduces residual tension and injury reactions to minimize the risk of sequelae.

When personal injury claims (bodily injury coverage) are registered after a traffic accident, you can receive Korean medicine clinical care covered by auto insurance.
Upon visiting, provide your insurance company name, claim number, and adjuster contact info, and care will proceed following verification.

Under auto insurance coverage, acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, Chuna therapy, cupping therapy, physical therapy, and herbal medicine prescriptions can be applied based on post-accident status.

Applicable treatment items and coverage scope may vary depending on claim registration status, insurance confirmation, and patient condition.
SOIAN Korean Medicine Clinic verifies necessary details and guides you upon your visit.

After a traffic accident, the body may feel heavy and aching, with localized pain lingering for a long time.
In Korean medicine, residual post-impact pain and circulatory stagnation are evaluated from the perspective of blood stasis (eohyeol).

Post-accident herbal medicine is formulated considering pain, muscle tension, flu-like body aches, fatigue, and delayed recovery.
We find optimal directions to support comfortable recovery by evaluating accident timing, painful areas, constitution, digestion, and sleep status.

Acupuncture Therapy
Identifies tensed muscles and painful regions after an accident, utilized to relieve tension around the neck, lower back, shoulders, back, and pelvis.

Pharmacopuncture Therapy
Applied according to condition to areas of concentrated pain, deep muscle tension, inflammatory reactions, or suspected circulatory stagnation.

Chuna Therapy
Administered to help restore functional mobility in the cervical spine, vertebral column, and pelvis restricted after an accident.

Cupping & Physical Therapy
Utilized adjunctively for areas with muscle tension, reduced circulation, and persistent stiffness.

Post-Accident Herbal Medicine
Formulated by assessing post-accident pain, blood stasis, fatigue, sleep quality, and digestive condition together.

Monitoring Recovery Progress
Focuses on minimizing chronicity by checking lingering pulling sensations, stiffness, movement limitations, headaches, and fatigue even after initial pain subsides.
