About Portsmouth Accident & Injury Center

Portsmouth Accident & Injury Center is a chiropractic office at 719 Chillicothe Street — across from Kroger, near the Floodwall Murals. People come in for one of two reasons: something changed after a car accident, or an everyday neck, back, headache, joint, or posture problem finally got persistent enough to have looked at.

Meet Dr. May, D.C.

Every visit runs the same honest sequence. First, the story — what happened, when the symptoms started, what’s harder to do now. Then an exam built around that story, not a one-size-fits-all routine. Then a plain-word explanation of what the findings do and don’t show, and a real conversation about options. When a concern falls outside what a chiropractic office should handle, you’ll hear that directly, along with where to go instead.

Accident visits and everyday chiropractic visits

Accident-focused care carries extra weight: the crash history and symptom timing, prior emergency or medical care, claim details, and organized records that an insurer or attorney may later request — shared only with your approval.

Everyday chiropractic care starts smaller — with the movement or activity that changed, whether that’s neck turning, back comfort, a headache pattern, joint stiffness, or a work position.

The two overlap when it makes sense. But a backache isn’t treated as a crash injury by default here, and not every crash symptom turns out to be a chiropractic case.

What patients can expect from the office

Here’s what we can honestly offer: a direct conversation, a careful exam, and a clear answer — including “this belongs with another provider” when that’s true.

And here’s what no honest website can promise, so this one won’t: a particular outcome or recovery date, same-day availability, insurance payment, a settlement result, or a predetermined technique or visit count. This office is not an emergency room, a hospital, an imaging center, a law firm, or a claims adjuster — and it won’t pretend to be.
