You May be suffering neck whiplash

Car accidents are the main cause of neck whiplash. Very often, the victims of whiplash, think their pain is going to disappear with time, but on most cases this is not reality, the pain stays for a long time. Months, even years after the car accident, victims can suffer symptoms of whiplash:

  •  Neck pain
  • Back Pain
  • Headache
  • Numb

Frequent symptoms after a car accident

Whiplash injuries can result in tearing of muscles and ligaments. This tear interferes with the body’s ability to straighten structural damage. Curing spinal injury whiplash without adequate professional care would be like healing a broken bone without putting it back correctly. If whiplash injury does not receive adequate physical care with spinal adjustments, the body may repair the injured spine in a wrong position and may cause chronic and more serious problems in the future. We recommend treating your whiplash injury immediately.
