Gentle, precise care for the cervical spine.
Whiplash is a rapid flexion-extension injury that strains muscles and ligaments, compresses cervical discs, and irritates facet joints — all at once. We treat the mechanics, not just the pain: careful adjustments, targeted soft-tissue work, and exercises that restore range of motion without re-stressing healing tissue.
Built for West Monroe.
From Antique Alley shop owners and oilfield crews to Rebels athletes and anyone rear-ended on the I-20 bridge — we know the loads, the hours, and the injuries this side of the river lives with.

Where is the Monroe office for West Monroe whiplash patients?
Our office is at 1400 Royal Ave, Monroe, LA 71201 — call (318) 323-7246. It is minutes across the Ouachita River from West Monroe, open Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Same-day slots are held for accident patients so you can be evaluated the same day as your I-20 or US-80 crash.
How long after a car accident can whiplash symptoms appear?
Whiplash symptoms frequently do not appear until 24 to 72 hours after the collision — sometimes longer. The adrenaline from the crash masks pain signals. Neck stiffness, headaches starting at the base of the skull, dizziness, and shoulder pain often emerge the morning after a rear-end impact on I-20 or the Monroe-West Monroe bridge. Getting evaluated the same day as your accident, even if you feel fine, protects both your health and your insurance claim.
Does auto insurance cover whiplash treatment with no upfront cost?
Yes. Louisiana auto policies include Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage and, in many cases, Personal Injury Protection (PIP) that pay for chiropractic treatment directly. If the at-fault driver caused your accident, their liability insurance covers your care. Mayfield Chiropractic bills your insurer directly — in most cases you pay nothing out of pocket while your claim is open. Our staff verifies your benefits before your first appointment. Call (318) 323-7246.
What does whiplash treatment look like at Mayfield Chiropractic?
Treatment begins with a thorough orthopedic and neurological examination and injury documentation suitable for insurance and legal use. Dr. Mayfield then uses gentle cervical adjustments to restore proper spinal alignment, soft-tissue therapy to reduce muscle spasm, therapeutic exercises to rebuild strength, and spinal decompression when disc involvement is present. Most patients with mild to moderate whiplash see significant improvement within 6 to 12 weeks.
Can Dr. Mayfield provide whiplash documentation for my attorney or insurer?
Yes. Dr. Gregory Mayfield is qualified as an expert witness in motor-vehicle-accident cases, drawing on 6.5 years as a police officer responding to crashes on these same West Monroe roads. He provides thorough medical records, injury narratives, and, when needed, expert-witness reports that stand up with adjusters and personal-injury attorneys throughout Ouachita Parish. Call (318) 323-7246 for a same-day evaluation at 1400 Royal Ave, Monroe.
