Meet Dr. Jason Addison

Doctor of Chiropractic · Magna Cum Laude, Life University · Active Release Techniques · Frequency Specific Microcurrent
Dr. Jason Addison graduated Magna Cum Laude from Life University and is certified in Active Release Techniques, Frequency Specific Microcurrent and advanced rehabilitation methods. Much of his practice involves collision-related neck and back complaints, so the exam is focused on the mechanisms that actually caused your injury.
Before chiropractic, Dr. Addison worked in software engineering — a background he credits for the analytical, detail-focused way he works through a case. His philosophy centers on finding the root cause of an injury and treating the body as a connected system rather than a set of isolated parts.
If an evaluation suggests your case needs imaging, a medical specialist or a different form of care, you will be told directly and referred appropriately.

Injured in a Car Accident? Here's What to Watch For

After a collision, adrenaline can hide symptoms for several days. These are the complaints auto injury patients most often describe during the first two weeks.
  • Neck pain or stiffness that worsens the morning after
  • Whiplash-type soreness through the neck, jaw and upper back
  • Low back pain or pain that spreads into the hip
  • Headaches starting at the base of the skull
  • Numbness, tingling or weakness in an arm or hand
  • Reduced range of motion when turning or looking up
  • Shoulder pain, often on the seatbelt side
  • If you’re experiencing severe or emergency symptoms, seek immediate medical care.

    Car Accident Injuries We Evaluate and Treat

    Care is chosen after an exam, not before. Here are the presentations we see most often following rear-end and side-impact collisions.

    Whiplash

    Rapid head movement can strain the neck's soft tissue and joints. We assess irritability and range of motion before choosing any technique.

    Neck Pain

    Persistent stiffness or sharp turning pain after a crash may respond to hands-on care combined with graded movement work.

    Back Pain

    Seatbelt and bracing forces often irritate the mid and low back. Evaluation helps separate muscle guarding from joint involvement.

    Headaches

    Post-collision headaches frequently trace back to the upper neck. We evaluate those structures and refer out when red flags appear.

    Car Accident Chiropractic Questions, Answered

    Do I need to see a chiropractor after a car accident even if I feel fine?

    It is common to feel fine in the hours after a collision and then notice stiffness, headaches or neck pain days later, because adrenaline can mask discomfort. An evaluation soon after the accident helps document how you are doing and identify soft-tissue irritation early. If nothing significant is found, that is useful information too.

    Will my insurance cover chiropractic care after an accident?

    Auto injury care in Georgia is often covered through medical payments coverage, personal injury protection or a third-party claim, depending on your policy. Our team can review your coverage with you before care begins so you understand the process. We will always explain any out-of-pocket costs up front.

    How soon after an accident should I get evaluated?

    Sooner is generally better. Many patients are seen within a few days of the collision so symptoms can be assessed while they are still developing. Waiting can allow compensation patterns and stiffness to settle in, which may make recovery take longer.

    What does a first visit involve?

    Your first visit starts with a conversation about the accident and how you have felt since. Dr. Addison then performs a physical and movement evaluation of the areas involved, discusses the findings in plain language, and outlines options. You are never obligated to begin care that day.

    Is chiropractic care safe for whiplash?

    Chiropractic care for whiplash-associated symptoms is widely used and is tailored to what your evaluation shows. Techniques are chosen based on your comfort, irritability and stage of healing, and gentler approaches are used when tissues are still sensitive. If your presentation suggests you need imaging or another specialist, we refer you.

    Do you see Acworth patients at your Kennesaw office?

    Yes. The clinic sits on Shiloh Road in Kennesaw, only a short drive from Acworth, and many of our auto injury patients come from Acworth, Woodstock and Marietta. Appointments are usually available within a few days of a collision.
