Chiropractic Treatment for Whiplash

Commonly associated with a traumatic injury. Whiplash is caused when head whips forward and back, with the neck to follow. This usually causes a strain in the neck muscle and takes the ligaments and tendons in the neck to push past their normal limits. Car accidents and falls are the most common causes associated with whiplash. Symptoms can be felt immediately or can take weeks to months, before discomfort is felt.
