CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR WHIPLASH
FAQ
Whiplash is most commonly linked to car accidents. An automotive collision (at virtually any speed) or anything else that causes a quick stop can send your head’s weight flying backward and forward with substantial power. Each of these motions has the potential to harm the neck’s muscles and connective tissues. Cervical joints can also be pushed out of position, and intervertebral discs can herniate and come into contact with sensitive nerve roots.
Whiplash is also known to develop as a result of sports injuries and other sports-related difficulties that result in a violent jolt of the head.
Whiplash can produce a broader range of symptoms than you would think. Aside from the anticipated neck discomfort and inability to move your head, you may also have headaches, migraines, jaw or face pain, shoulder pain, mood changes, ringing in your ears, and/or impaired vision. You may have numbness, discomfort, tingling, or weakness in your hands or arms.
If you are suffering any of the symptoms of whiplash, you should seek emergency medical attention. Even if your neck feels good, you should have it (and the rest of you) examined right away. Due to the shock and adrenaline surge of the collision, hidden injuries may not show symptoms straight away, or even for days. By delaying diagnosis and treatment, you may also miss your window of opportunity to file any financial compensation claims.
Chiropractic treatment can significantly help your whiplash symptoms by addressing the underlying causes of those symptoms. Through chiropractic adjustment, our alignment experts can return your cervical spinal designs to their proper position, reducing pain, reestablishing neck flexibility, and revising any progressions in the curve of your neck.
Chiropractic therapy is completely safe when used as part of a comprehensive whiplash treatment strategy. It may potentially obviate the need for additional therapeutic methods, such as neck surgery, that are associated with established safety hazards.
Our chiropractors may recommend whiplash therapy methods such as spinal decompression (to repair herniated discs) and corrective exercises based on your specific injuries (to restore neck strength and mobility).
