Whiplash is the fast and excessive flexion and extension of the neck, usually due to a car accident or similarly high-impact collision. Some symptoms may include neck pain, headaches, dizziness, ringing in the ears, shoulder pain, and arm and leg pain.
At 479 Chiropractic & Wellness, we have the expertise to diagnose and care for head injuries and whiplash in a way that promotes complete healing.
The sooner you come into our Bentonville office and see Dr. Zac, the better. Whiplash becomes more difficult to solve as you get farther from the moment of impact. As more time passes, and ligaments are stuck in the wrong position, the harder they are to correct.
While it is preferred that you come in as soon as possible, getting long-term or untreated whiplash symptoms under control is possible.
Usually we start with neck adjustments, but decisions for how to care for whiplash are made case-by-case.
Lower-force, iInstrument-assisted adjustments are available as an option, in addition to the traditional manual adjustments. Dr. Zac may suggest ultrasound therapy, then rehab exercises and postural awareness, as we seek the right combination that brings complete healing to you.
