Car accidents can lead to all kinds of troublesome injuries. Soft tissue injuries, herniated discs, and headaches are just some examples of the health issues those accidents may cause. Whiplash is another potential byproduct of your involvement in a car crash and can also be a burdensome injury. Here at Canyon Crossing Chiropractic, we offer whiplash treatment to the residents of Puyallup, WA, so that they can get the relief they need.
Understanding the Symptoms of Whiplash
Neck and shoulder pain are the main symptoms of whiplash, potentially getting worse when you move your head. Headaches are also known to accompany whiplash injuries. The inflammation from the injury may also make your neck stiff, causing it to be difficult to move.
All of these symptoms are difficult enough to deal with but whiplash injuries can also present other complications. Vision problems and neurological issues accompany more severe cases of whiplash due to the pain and tension in the neck. Those neurological issues may include depression, inability to concentrate, and irritability.
Treating Whiplash with the Help of a Chiropractor
Whiplash is the byproduct of damage to the structures around the neck due to the whip-like motion your neck makes during an accident. The soft tissues around your cervical spine may have also sustained damage from the accident.
The good news is that our chiropractor can conduct an examination to help identify your injuries. Once we have identified the locations of your pain areas and misalignments, we can use chiropractic adjustments to help treat them.
Because your spine may have been moved out of alignment after sustaining the injury, spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment may work well to help you heal from your pain. Our chiropractor may also use other therapeutic techniques to help facilitate faster recovery for your soft tissue injuries, such as corrective exercises, soft tissue mobilization, and lifestyle advice.
