Whiplash
You’re waiting at a stoplight. The sound of screeching tires is followed by the harsh sound of metal hitting metal. Your car is suddenly being pushed forward! You’re being rear-ended! In a split second, your body is pushed against your seat. Your head, isolated by your neck, delays its reaction.
Symptoms of whiplash injuries often show up long after your car has been repaired.
Then, your body changes directions, moving forward to the limits of your seatbelt. Then your head is snapped backwards! You can’t stop it.
Even a minor fender bender can produce a whiplash injury. It may take a day or two, or sometimes months for symptoms to appear. Now what?
Get to our office for an examination! Pain pills won’t heal inflamed tendons and ligaments. Muscle relaxers won’t heal torn muscles. A cervical collar won’t restore a graceful forward spinal curve.
Specific chiropractic spinal adjustments, because they can help restore proper motion and position of individual spinal bones, can better assure proper healing.
“The longer you wait, the more unseen damage there is and the longer it takes to recover. Drugs may reduce the pain, but it simply delays more effective chiropractic care.”
