Whiplash injuries are most often incurred during auto collisions, sporting events, slips or falls and they can all have
a damaging effect on your neck and back.
The resulting instability of the spine and soft tissues can contribute to headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, pain in the
shoulders, arm and hands, reduced ability to turn and bend, and low back problems. As the body attempts to adapt, symptoms may not appear until weeks or
even months later.
The Chiropractic approach to these types of injuries is to use specific chiropractic adjustments to help normalize spinal function. After a thorough case history and examination, the doctor will recommend a series of visits to help restore proper motion and position of spinal bones.
If caught early enough, inflammation can be reduced and scar tissue can often be minimized. Consult a Doctor of
Chiropractic before depending upon addictive pain medication, enduring constant whiplash related headaches or submitting to surgery.
