Introduction
Car accidents often cause more than just surface injuries. Even when you walk away feeling fine, hidden problems such as whiplash, disc herniations, and muscle strains can develop and worsen over time. Left untreated, these injuries may lead to chronic pain, reduced mobility, and long-term complications.
At Kingwood Chiropractic Spine and Injury Center, Tyler Hamel, DC, FPSC (C), brings over 25 years of experience in specialized accident and injury care. With advanced training in Primary Spine Care and years of treating thousands of complex trauma cases, Dr. Hamel has helped whiplash injured patients recover safely and return to their daily lives with confidence.
Early evaluation is critical. By identifying and treating hidden injuries right away, we help prevent long-term damage and set you on the path to true healing. Whether you are dealing with whiplash, back pain, or disc issues after a car accident, our comprehensive approach is designed to restore function, relieve pain, and protect your health for the future.

TC, Cleveland, TX
There is nothing about Dr. Hamel, or his office, that I would not recommend. Top notch care, personable, and kind. His office is easy to find, and his "lady behind the counter" is amazing as well. With two to three visits, Dr. Hamel has relieved issues other doctors have been trying to for MONTHS. I'd give 10 stars if I could. If you are in the Kingwood area, or nearby; and aren't seeing Dr. Hamel, I'd encourage you to go! He's awesome.
LC, Kingwood, TX
I have had such an amazing experience with Dr. Hamel. He is knowledgeable and patient. He truly cares about his patients and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable. I have delayed going to a chiropractor because I wasn't sure what to expect. But I have had such relief from chronic neck pain and discomfort. His Office Manager, Melissa made the experience easy and even helped me get the information I needed for a referral. If you are looking to see a local chiropractor--this is THE PLACE.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
Do I need to see a chiropractor after a car accident — even if I don’t feel pain right away?
Yes. After a wreck, many injuries like whiplash, spinal misalignments, soft-tissue strains, and disc irritation may not show symptoms immediately. At our Kingwood clinic, we routinely see patients whose pain develops 24–72 hours later. Early evaluation helps uncover hidden injuries, reduces inflammation, and prevents chronic problems — plus it strengthens your medical records for insurance or legal claims.
A complimentary car accident assessment can help detect issues before they get worse.
