Chiropractic Care for
Whiplash
Chiropractors are trained in all aspects of the human body structure and central nervous system from bones and muscles to nerve and disc health. This allows them to get to the root cause of whiplash and treat the body as a whole to help prevent chronic pain and restore normal neck movement, function, and strength.
​
Gentle spinal, neck and whole-body adjustments performed by a licensed chiropractor at Quality Chiropractic allow the body's systems to function correctly by removing blockages, pressure, and inflammation. This allows your body to heal naturally from whiplash injuries.
​
Studies show that chiropractic care improves cervical range of motion (cROM) and pain in the management of Whiplash-Associated Disorders (WAD)1, allowing you to return to your normal activities in less time than without treatment.
