How Advanced Wellness Centre Can Help with Whiplash Injury

Whiplash is a condition that is a common result of an auto accident. It occurs when your head is suddenly and quickly whipped forward then backwards. Cars don’t have to be going very fast to cause whiplash, and it may take a few days or even weeks for the symptoms of whiplash to become apparent. If you have been involved in an auto accident in Richmond, VA, Advanced Wellness Centre is ready to assist you. Our chiropractor will identify the source of your pain and create a chiropractic care plan for auto accident injury treatment.

Symptoms of Whiplash

Whiplash symptoms include:

  • Upper and lower back pain
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Dizziness
  • Headaches
  • Blurry vision
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Muscle stiffness
  • A limited range of motion

These symptoms can range from mild in nature to debilitating. When you head jerks forward, you may hit something like the steering wheel which can cause a concussion and lead to headaches, blurry vision, nausea, and other symptoms. If left unaddressed, whiplash can lead to a chronic pain condition.

How Advanced Wellness Centre Can Help

At your first visit, our chiropractor will evaluate your musculoskeletal system to identify the root cause of your discomfort. Our chiropractor may also perform x-rays to get a better idea of any internal damage that may have taken place and screen for herniated discs. Considering you medical history as well, our chiropractor will use this information to create a chiropractic care plan tailored to your needs. Over time, chiropractic adjustments will relieve your pain, restore your range of motion, and improve your body’s natural ability to heal itself.
