Whiplash

Before visiting us, learn more about whiplash and how chiropractor care can be beneficial for recovery below:

What is Whiplash?

Whiplash occurs when your head is jolted backward and forward suddenly. When you hit something, the force of the impact can highly affect your neck. This whip-like action can lead to damage in the ligaments, joints, and muscles of your neck. Although whiplash is commonly associated with motor vehicle accidents, it can also result from sports injuries or falls.

Symptoms of Whiplash

It's imperative to know that you may not feel symptoms after a car accident until 48 to 72 hours later. After accidents, a rush of adrenaline can keep us from feeling any pain. The most common symptoms of whiplash include a sore neck with limited mobility, headaches, dizziness, shoulder pain, and arm pain. If you experience any of these symptoms after an accident or injury, our team is happy to help.

How Does Chiropractic Care Help Treat Whiplash?

Our chiropractors can help alleviate the symptoms that you may be experiencing from whiplash. We will manually manipulate the neck to realign it, which will reduce pain and discomfort. Chiropractic care can also include therapeutic exercises to increase your range of motion and strengthen weakened muscles. Our team believes in a holistic care that can improve your condition without the need of medication or surgery. At Harrisburg Family Chiropractic, we are committed to helping you find relief from the pain you are enduring due to whiplash.

What to Expect During a Chiropractic Visit

When you visit us, we will start with an initial consultation. For conditions such as whiplash, it's important to discuss the accident and any other events that are contributing to the injury. We will also assess your range of motion in your neck, back, and other extremities. As you visit us regularly, your symptoms will begin to improve.
