Whiplash, cervical strain, and soft tissue injuries cause neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and dizziness that linger for months if untreated. Novaré Injury Care and Rehab provides non-surgical whiplash treatment in Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres through chiropractic care, cervical manual therapy, and Class IV laser therapy designed to restore cervical range of motion and reduce inflammation.
Whiplash responds best to a combination of chiropractic adjustments, cervical manual therapy, and soft tissue work that restores range of motion and reduces inflammation. When disc involvement is suspected, cervical decompression and Class IV laser therapy accelerate healing at the tissue level.
Early care within the first two weeks produces significantly better outcomes than delayed treatment. Symptoms we address:
Florida's PIP statute requires you to see a qualifying provider within 14 days of your accident. Delayed treatment also leads to worse outcomes.
We offer same-day and next-day appointments so you can get examined and documented before the 14-day PIP deadline runs out.
Every accident patient gets digital x-rays on the first visit. We don't adjust the cervical spine without imaging first. Period.
We record collision details, neurological findings, and treatment progression with objective measurements. Dr. Bracic has supported over 10,000 legal cases.
Your $10,000 in PIP benefits requires an EMC determination from a qualifying provider. We have physician oversight to provide that.

“I have suffered with scoliosis and a multitude of bulging discs in my spine for years now due to many car accidents... I have made more healing progress in the past five months than I did in the past few years thanks to them.”
