Getting Your Whiplash Symptoms Treated at Back & Neck Care Chiropractic in Vancouver

Here at Back & Neck Care Chiropractic in Vancouver, we can evaluate your neck for signs of whiplash and provide you with rapid treatment to reduce your symptoms and heal your injury.

Early Whiplash Symptoms Treated by our Chiropractor

Whiplash does not always produce immediate symptoms. This is why it is a good idea to get your neck and spine evaluated by our chiropractor within 72 hours of your accident.

• Neck Pain and Stiffness

  – The muscles and ligaments in the neck are significantly stretched during a car accident, which can lead to inflammation, stiffness and pain. Applying ice can help alleviate some of the symptoms directly after your accident.

• Headaches

  – Inflammation in the neck can put pressure on the nerves, which results in moderate to severe headaches. Realigning the vertebrae with cervical adjustments can reduce your symptoms.

Intermediate and Long-Term Symptoms Treated by our Vancouver Chiropractor

Without treatment from our Vancouver chiropractor, your symptoms may increase in severity. This may lead to severe pain and headaches as well as sleep irregularities.

• Trouble Sleeping

  – Getting regular massages as well as chiropractic adjustments can reduce your discomfort and help you sleep better.

• Loss of Range of Motion in the Neck

  – As inflammation worsens, you may notice a significant decrease in the range of motion of your neck. Spinal adjustments, sports massage and various rehabilitative treatments can help restore the function of your neck.
   

• Severe Headaches and Migraines

  – Weeks after your car accident, you may still experience severe headaches as well as blurry vision, dizziness and light sensitivity. We can create a custom treatment program to reduce these symptoms.

• Arm Pain

  – Compressed nerves in the neck can lead to arm pain and tingling. Gentle spinal adjustments on your cervical vertebrae can help reduce inflammation.

If you have recently been in a car accident or suspect you have a neck sprain, you should schedule an appointment with our chiropractor in Vancouver by calling us at 360-523-7424.
