Recover from
Whiplash & Enjoy Life
Pain-Free!
Whiplash, a common outcome of car accidents or sudden jolts to the head, can leave you feeling stiff, sore, and frustrated. At Stott Chiropractic, we understand the challenges of recovering from whiplash and offer a safe, effective approach to get you back on track.
Understanding Whiplash
More Than Just a Neck Strain
Whiplash occurs when the muscles and ligaments in your neck experience a forceful and sudden stretch or tear. This can cause a variety of symptoms, including:
-
Neck pain and stiffness
-
Headaches
-
Dizziness
-
Vertigo
-
Muscle spasms
-
Difficulty concentrating
-
Reduced range of motion in the neck
Finding Relief
Beyond Rest & Medication
While rest and pain medication may provide temporary relief, they don't address the underlying cause of whiplash symptoms. Stott Chiropractic offers a natural, drug-free approach to promote long-term healing:
Improved Spinal Alignment
Gentle chiropractic adjustments can restore proper alignment in your cervical spine (neck), reducing pressure on nerves and promoting better function. This can significantly alleviate neck pain and stiffness associated with whiplash.
Reduced Inflammation
Chiropractic techniques like soft tissue therapy and massage can help decrease inflammation in the injured muscles and ligaments, promoting faster healing and pain relief.
Enhanced Range of Motion
Whiplash can limit your neck movement. Our chiropractors will employ gentle stretches and exercises to improve your range of motion, allowing you to regain flexibility and control.
Pain Management Techniques
We may recommend specific exercises and postural modifications to improve posture and stability, reducing strain on your neck and minimizing pain.
Beyond Adjustments
A Holistic Approach
Chiropractic adjustments are a core aspect of our treatment approach for whiplash. However, we may also incorporate other therapies to optimise your recovery, such as:
Heat or ice therapy
To reduce inflammation and pain.
Ergonomic recommendations
We can advise on adjustments to your car seat, workspace, and sleeping positions to prevent further strain on your neck.
Trigger point therapy
To target specific areas of muscle tension that can contribute to pain.
