Whiplash Treatment in Crofton, MD

Whiplash Treatment from Our Chiropractor in Crofton

Whiplash is a term usually associated with injuries from auto accidents.  However, many types of sudden force could cause this condition.  Sometimes the resulting discomfort is so severe that patients seeking whiplash treatment at our Capitol Rehab of Crofton practice cannot follow their usual daily routines.  Fortunately, our Crofton chiropractor avoids the use of medication or surgery in favor of natural therapies to bring them relief.

Whiplash Treatment from Our Chiropractor in Crofton

Overview of This Condition

Another name for whiplash is neck strain.  This disorder affects the neck as the result of extreme back-and-forth motion.  This rapid movement is similar to that associated with cracking a whip and causes stretched or torn neck muscles and tendons.  In addition to auto accidents, sports injuries, and various types of trauma may suddenly jerk the head forward or backward, causing whiplash.

While most whiplash patients notice symptoms within 24 hours, some might not experience any signs of injury for several days. Common symptoms include:

    • Neck pain or stiffness
    • Headaches
    • Reduced range of motion
    • Pain occurring when the head moves from front to back or from one side to the other
    • Headaches originating at the base of the skull
    • Tingling or numbness in arms
    • Hard or knotted muscles
    • Pain in the shoulder, arms, or upper back

Chiropractic Care in Crofton for Whiplash

Chiropractic care in Crofton provides whiplash treatment to help eliminate pain and restore both mobility and range of motion.  Getting prompt treatment after an auto accident or other injury involving sudden impact is important to avoid the risk of injuries worsening as time passes.

Our chiropractor searches for the reason for pain instead of merely trying to alleviate symptoms.  When a comprehensive exam and a review of an individual’s health history suggest whiplash, our practice creates a customized treatment plan for the patient.

Skilled chiropractic care and physical therapy can relieve the neck pain associated with whiplash.  Holistic healing solutions find the source of the individual’s pain and then match it to the most appropriate treatment options.  Most treatment plans include one or more of these natural therapies:

    • Chiropractic adjustments
    • Muscle relation, stimulation, or a combination of them
    • Physical exercises

Our chiropractor also offers advice on ergonomic and lifestyle changes that could benefit patients.
