Half of the patients we see are here as a result of an auto accident. Whiplash is by far the most common condition of these patients. Technically speaking, whiplash is termed a cervical acceleration deceleration injury. When a vehicle is hit from behind, the driver and passengers are vulnerable to having their head forced back into the headrest and then forward. The result is often damage to the muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs, and nerves of the neck. In many cases, if these injuries go untreated, there could be long term chronic pain and osteoarthritis. Chiropractic care is a very effective treatment for whiplash injuries.
