Causes and Symptoms of Whiplash

Whiplash occurs when the head is jerked forward or backward, often because of an impact. When this happens, small tears develop in the muscles and ligaments of the neck. Over time, these small tears can become painful and swollen. Symptoms of whiplash can vary, but some of the most common symptoms include:

  • Stiffness in the neck and shoulders.
  • Pain and tenderness in the affected areas.
  • Limited range of motion.
  • Limited mobility. 
  • Blurry vision.
  • Headache.
  • Difficulty sleeping. 

These symptoms can come on slowly so that many patients aren't even aware that they've been injured.

What Your Chiropractor near Lincoln Can Do to Treat Whiplash

There are many techniques that chiropractors use to treat whiplash in Lincoln NE. As your chiropractor near Lincoln, we use the following methods to treat whiplash:

  • Spinal adjustment - Spinal adjustment is a technique that chiropractors use to realign the vertebrae and restore flexibility to the spine. Spinal adjustment helps patients manage their pain, improve the functioning of the central nervous system and speed the healing process. 
  • Lifestyle advice - Our lifestyle advice helps patients avoid exacerbating their injuries while undergoing whiplash injury treatment. 
  • Stretches and exercises - We teach patients to do stretches and exercises to help them loosen tight muscles, improve range of motion and regain flexibility after an accident occurs.
