Whiplash Treatment

During a car accident, the muscles in your neck may be rapidly jerked back and forth, causing an injury called whiplash. Whiplash can cause chronic discomfort and can even make it difficult to move your neck. Thankfully, you can get the whiplash treatment you need at Bakke Chiropractic Clinic in Tacoma, WA.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

We use a range of techniques that provide short- and long-term pain relief for injuries like whiplash. Whiplash can leave you with misaligned joints in your neck. A chiropractor can apply gentle pressure to your misaligned joints and push them back into place. This will also relieve muscle tension and help to decrease symptoms like muscle spasms. While an auto injury like whiplash can be painful, our chiropractors will use a range of techniques to provide you with lasting relief.

The Symptoms of Whiplash

Whiplash symptoms aren't always noticeable immediately after an auto accident. In many cases, symptoms start to develop within a few days of the accident. These symptoms may include:

  • Stiffness and pain in the neck 
  • Pain that becomes more severe with neck movement
  • Difficulty moving the neck 
  • Headaches with pain along the base of the skull
  • Pain in the shoulder or upper back
  • Numbness or tingling in the arms 
  • Dizziness

These symptoms can be debilitating, but with the proper treatment, you'll be able to relieve pain and improve the range of motion in your neck. Without treatment, your neck injury could get worse, which is why you shouldn't hesitate to make an appointment with a chiropractor at our offices. Whether you're suffering from whiplash or another type of neck injury, we'll find a treatment that works for you.

What Causes Whiplash?

The most common cause of whiplash is car accidents, especially rear-end collisions. However, whiplash can be caused by other types of injuries as well, including contact injuries from sports and slips and falls. Even if you haven't been in a car accident, you may have whiplash!
