Auto Accident Chiropractic in Downtown Vancouver

ICBC Auto Injury Care

woman with neck pain after an auto accident Neck tension, a stiff back, or sore wrists after a collision are common, especially in the first days and weeks. ICBC offers pre-authorized chiropractic coverage on a no-fault basis, which means you can focus on getting care without upfront decisions about cost. At Harbourview Chiropractic & Massage Clinic, same-day appointments are available. Dr. Glen Woodman provides clear explanations and hands-on care tailored to your comfort level.

How ICBC Coverage Works

ICBC automatically approves the first 25 chiropractic visits when care begins within three months of the crash. This coverage is separate from extended benefits, so you don’t need to submit through your regular insurance.

When you book, simply provide your claim number—we confirm your coverage, handle the online forms, and submit progress updates directly through ICBC’s portal. If more time has passed since the collision, we can request approval through your adjuster. First visits are typically 30 minutes and include a detailed history exam and treatment

What Your Care May Include

ICBC allows a range of options as part of your recovery. Chiropractic visits may involve Diversified adjustments, drop-table methods, the Activator Methods® instrument, and soft-tissue work such as Active Release Technique®—all used with the intention of easing tension and encouraging better movement. When appropriate, we coordinate ICBC-approved active rehab with a kinesiologist, as well as on-site massage therapy or acupuncture for those who prefer a combined approach.

Common Concerns After a Collision

People often reach out with:

Neck or upper-back tension after a sudden impact
Lower-back stiffness or discomfort
Wrist or hand soreness from bracing or airbag force
General muscle tightness or limited movement

Next Steps and Visit Expectations

If symptoms feel unusually intense, we may recommend a medical follow-up or imaging referral through your primary provider. Many people appreciate early guidance on movement, activity pacing, and ways to break up long sitting while healing. You choose your visit frequency; some prefer short-term care, while others continue periodically based on how they feel. Parking and transit are nearby, and online booking makes scheduling straightforward.
