Whiplash TreatmentLyn Lake Chiropractic provides chiropractic care for patients experiencing neck pain, stiffness, headaches and other whiplash-related symptoms following auto accidents.
What Is Whiplash?
Whiplash is associated with rapid back-and-forth movement of the head and neck, most often from rear-end collisions. Common symptoms include:
- Neck pain, stiffness and reduced movement
- Headaches
- Shoulder and upper-back pain
- Muscle soreness, tenderness and fatigue
Symptoms vary from person to person and may not appear right away. If new symptoms develop after a collision, an evaluation can help determine their cause.
Chiropractic Care for Whiplash
After evaluating your condition, your chiropractor may recommend chiropractic and supportive therapies to address pain, stiffness and limited movement — such as adjustments, soft-tissue and massage therapy, therapeutic exercise and rehabilitation, electrical muscle stimulation, or ultrasound.
Your treatment plan depends on your symptoms and examination. If you experience severe or emergency symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.
