Auto Injury Treatment in Sarasota: What You Need to Know
Car accidents — even minor fender benders — can cause significant damage to the spine, soft tissues, and nervous system. The problem is that many injuries don't show symptoms right away. Whiplash, disc injuries, and nerve damage can take days or weeks to manifest, and by then, scar tissue has already begun forming.
Why early evaluation matters
That's why early evaluation is so important. At The Roots Health Centers in Lakewood Ranch, we see auto injury patients regularly and understand the urgency of getting proper imaging and nerve function testing as soon as possible after an accident.
Our approach to auto injury treatment goes beyond pain management. We use:
- CLA INSiGHT nerve scans to assess how the accident impacted your nervous system
- Digital x-rays to evaluate structural damage
- Comprehensive exam to identify every area of injury — not just the ones that hurt right now
The 14-day PIP window
Florida law allows you to seek treatment under your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage within 14 days of an accident. We help you navigate the insurance process and ensure you get the care you need without added stress.
Common auto accident injuries we treat include:
- Whiplash
- Herniated discs
- Concussion-related symptoms
- Mid-back and low-back sprains
- Radiating pain or numbness in the arms or legs
Don't wait for the pain to get worse. If you've been in an accident in the Sarasota, Bradenton, or Lakewood Ranch area, call us at (941) 877-1507 or book your exam online.
