Frequently Asked Questions

At Kingwood Chiropractic Spine and Injury Center, we treat neck pain, lower back pain, sciatica, disc herniations, whiplash injuries, shoulder pain, sports injuries, and chronic joint pain. As a Kingwood chiropractor, Dr. Hamel focuses on identifying the root cause of pain rather than masking symptoms. Patients from Kingwood, Humble, Atascocita, Porter, and New Caney trust our office for non-surgical, drug-free spine care.

You should see a chiropractor as soon as possible after a car accident — even if you feel fine. Whiplash and soft tissue injuries often take hours or days to fully appear. Early evaluation helps document injuries, reduce inflammation, and prevent long-term complications. Our Kingwood car accident chiropractor provides thorough exams and clear documentation for insurance claims.

No referral is required to see a chiropractor in Texas. You can schedule directly with our Kingwood chiropractic office. We accept patients with personal injury claims, auto insurance cases, and those seeking natural treatment options without surgery or medication.

Unlike high-volume clinics, our office focuses on personalized, evidence-based care. Dr. Hamel has over 24 years of experience treating spine injuries and integrates chiropractic adjustments, shockwave therapy, cold laser therapy, and rehabilitation exercises to create a customized care plan for each patient in Kingwood.

Yes. We offer advanced shockwave therapy in Kingwood for chronic pain, tendon injuries, plantar fasciitis, and disc-related pain. Shockwave therapy stimulates circulation and accelerates tissue healing without injections or surgery. Many patients choose this option when traditional treatments have not provided relief.

In many cases, yes. Chiropractic care can help relieve pressure on spinal discs, improve joint mobility, and reduce inflammation. Our Kingwood chiropractor develops structured treatment plans using spinal adjustments, decompression strategies, shockwave therapy, and corrective exercises to support disc recovery naturally.

Your first visit includes a detailed consultation, orthopedic and neurological examination, posture and movement assessment, and if necessary, imaging referrals. We explain findings clearly and outline a personalized treatment plan. Our goal is clarity, certainty, and confidence in your care plan from day one.

We are located at 3039 Woodland Hills Drive, Kingwood, TX 77339, serving patients throughout Kingwood, Humble, Atascocita, Porter, and surrounding Northeast Houston communities. Our convenient location makes it easy to access natural spine and injury care close to home.

At Kingwood Chiropractic Spine and Injury Center, we treat whiplash, neck pain, back pain, herniated discs, shoulder injuries, headaches, sciatica, ligament sprains, and soft tissue injuries caused by auto accidents. Even low-speed crashes can cause significant spinal stress. Our Kingwood car accident chiropractor performs detailed orthopedic and neurological exams to identify hidden injuries early and prevent long-term complications.

Yes. Many patients involved in “minor” accidents later develop delayed symptoms like stiffness, headaches, or lower back pain. Soft tissue injuries may not appear immediately due to adrenaline and inflammation patterns. Early evaluation allows us to document injuries properly and begin treatment before scar tissue and chronic pain develop.

In many cases, yes. If you have Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage or the other driver was at fault, chiropractic care is often covered. Our Kingwood office helps guide patients through the documentation process and works with attorneys when necessary to ensure injuries are properly recorded and treated.

Treatment duration depends on the severity of the injury, imaging findings, and how quickly care begins. Some patients improve in a few weeks, while disc injuries or ligament damage may require a structured multi-phase treatment plan. Our goal is not just temporary relief, but long-term spinal stability and functional recovery.
