Even a minor fender bender can produce a whiplash injury. It may take a day or two, or sometimes months for symptoms to appear. Get to our office for an examination as soon as possible, as pain pills won't heal inflamed tendons and ligaments and muscle relaxers won't heal torn muscles. 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 may take to recover. Drugs may temporarily reduce the pain, but they simply delay more effective chiropractic care.

Since auto accidents cause the majority of whiplash injuries, defensive driving skills may help aviod such an injury. Symptoms of whiplash injuries often show up long after your car has been repaired.
