Leading Whiplash Treatments in Brevard Country, FL
Whiplash injuries affect patients of any age and are a common result of car accidents or impact situations. Whiplash happens any time a person’s head and neck snaps forward and backward sharply and quickly. This unnatural jerking motion puts a significant amount of strain on the neck, damaging cervical muscles, ligaments, discs, nerves, and vertebrae joints.
At Injury Centers of Brevard, our Brevard County whiplash treatment effectively uses several methods. One of the most frequent ways to reduce pain and restore a full range of head and neck motion to the patient is chiropractic care. If you were in a car accident as recently as today or have persistent difficulty turning your head in any direction due to an old injury, contact our team of chiropractors in Brevard County, FL. You don’t need to live with the symptoms of whiplash. Here at Injury Centers of Brevard, we’ll help you find long-term relief and recovery.
Whiplash symptoms don’t always show up right after a car accident. It takes time for the injured muscles to tense and tighten up and cause painful symptoms and loss of motion. This is one of the reasons why we always recommend seeking medical treatment immediately after an accident, even if you feel fine.
When symptoms do show up, they often take the form of headaches, neck pain, neck and shoulder stiffness, lower back pain, dizziness, and sharp or dull pain in the upper back and shoulders. If you experience any of these symptoms and can think of a recent impact or jerking motion you experienced in a car, amusement park, gym, sports events, or any other type of activity, there’s a good chance that a whiplash injury is the root cause of your pain.
With an experienced chiropractor on your side, you’ll receive effective Brevard County whiplash treatment and have a recordkeeping partner who will track you progress if you need to file a claim for medical bills or lost wages. As licensed professionals, the team members at Injury Center of Brevard are trained to identify and then gently adjust the musculoskeletal system that was jerked out of its natural position.
Depending on your personal needs, the adjustments might include physical manipulation, muscle relaxation techniques, strengthening and stabilization exercises, and evaluation or improvement of posture and ergonomics to relieve the pressure causing the pain.
