Whiplash is a painful injury that makes it difficult for you to move your neck or even hold your head up at times. It is the result of a violent jerking motion in which the head is forced in one direction and then snaps back in the opposite direction. Part of the reason that whiplash pain is so severe is that it affects the connective tissues along with the soft tissues in the neck. Because the connective tissues work to support and move the head, they are constantly in use and will result in significant pain when injured. Our team at Whole Health Chiropractic Center in Issaquah provides quality care to treat whiplash.

Causes

Whiplash is most commonly associated with auto accident injuries, but in reality, it can be caused by a variety of events. Slip and fall accidents, work-related injuries, sports injuries, and even an assault can result in whiplash. The injury can range in severity and take several weeks to fully heal.

Treatment

Your chiropractor will be able to treat your injury more effectively if you schedule a visit immediately after the injury occurs. We will provide pain relief through the use of chiropractic adjustments, deep tissue massage, and other treatment options to restore natural balance to the body. This helps to keep inflammation to a minimum and reduce your pain before it gets out of hand.
