Car Accident & MVA Acupuncture
Whiplash, neck pain, back pain and headaches after a car accident respond well to acupuncture — and Alberta auto insurance Section B benefits cover approved treatment.
In Alberta, people injured in a motor vehicle accident can receive acupuncture through their auto insurance Section B benefits, usually at no out-of-pocket cost. At Ziwell Acupuncture, MVA patients are welcome: we help with the claim paperwork and bill the insurer directly for approved care — so you can focus on recovery.
1. Report & get assessed
Report the accident to your insurer within 10 days and get assessed by a health professional as soon as possible. You have the right to choose your own acupuncturist.
2. Complete form AB-1
Complete the Notice of Loss and Proof of Claim (AB-1) to start your Section B medical benefits. We can walk you through the process.
3. Start treatment
Section B benefits cover approved acupuncture treatment. We bill the insurer directly for approved care — no upfront cost to you.
Common post-accident conditions we treat
Whiplash and neck stiffness, back pain, headaches and migraines, shoulder tension, anxiety and sleep disturbance, and soft-tissue injuries. Early treatment works best — before protective muscle guarding sets in.
