Whiplash

Whiplash is a painful condition that often sets in after an auto accident. If you are feeling neck pain days, weeks, or even months after an auto accident, you might have it. We at Chiropractic of Bellevue in Bellevue, WA, can provide chiropractic care to help you get relief from this chronic pain condition. Read on to learn more.

What Is Whiplash?

Unlike the rest of the body, which generally sits strapped into a car seat, the neck and head are free to move. The average driver has little protection against whiplash when they get into an auto accident. While freedom to move your head is great for seeing around and where one is going when driving, it’s not so good in an accident. The forces of physics take over, and the body keeps moving even though the car suddenly stops. The neck and head then snap back, like the cracking of a whip. This is where the name “whiplash” comes from.

Whiplash Injury

The neck can be damaged in a variety of ways. That includes the muscles, nerves, spine joints, ligaments, tendons and similar. You might have no idea about the damage until hours later when the adrenaline surge wears off. The onset of pain can be even later, however. You could start feeling pain days, weeks, and even months later.

Whiplash Treatment

Chiropractic care uses natural, holistic treatments to help repair that damage done to your neck. This can include treatments such as chiropractic adjustments, corrective exercises, and lifestyle changes. It is possible that your neck was thrown out of alignment during the crash and a chiropractic adjustment can help get it realigned to help reduce your pain. You may be surprised how different you feel after one adjustment.
