Whiplash Treatment from Our Car Accident Chiropractors near You
Whiplash is one of the most common neck injuries that occur after a car accident, sports injury, or other sudden impacts. It happens when the neck is forcefully whipped back and forth, straining the muscles, ligaments, and joints. While symptoms may not appear immediately, whiplash can lead to chronic pain and stiffness if left untreated. At Proficient Chiropractic, with locations in St. Louis, MO, and Overland, MO, we specialize in providing effective chiropractic care to help you recover from whiplash and restore your vitality.
The Symptoms of Whiplash
Whiplash symptoms can vary depending on how severe the injury is, however common signs include:
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Headaches, often starting at the base of the skull
- Shoulder or upper back pain
- Reduced range of motion in the neck
- Dizziness or fatigue
- Tingling or numbness in the arms
Symptoms can develop hours or even days after the initial injury, which is why it is important to seek care as soon as possible if you suspect you may have whiplash.
