Get Whiplash Pain Relief by Our Lakewood Ranch Chiropractors
If you're involved in a car crash and suffer an auto accident injury, you deserve the best care. Treatment should involve pain relief and that's something our chiropractor can help you with at Advanced Chiropractic & Physiotherapy in Lakewood Ranch.
What Is Whiplash?
Whiplash occurs when the head and neck are jerked and forces the head to move forward and backward quickly. The sudden force of the accident leads to the muscles and tendons of the neck tearing instead of stretching.
Loosely referred to as neck strain, whiplash causes many symptoms that affect patients in their everyday lives. Some of the issues they suffer include:
- Headaches
- Tenderness
- A decreased range of motion that makes it hard to turn the head from side to side
- Dizziness
- Stiffness
- Low back pain
The auto accident injury may not show up right away. It may take 24 hours, days, or even months in some cases. You can never be too careful, so it's a good idea to see our Lakewood Ranch chiropractors for treatment options for whiplash.
How Can Our Lakewood Ranch Chiropractors Help?
Our chiropractors offer a service called Chiropractic Biophysics, which is an extension traction designed to help improve the shape of the cervical spine. With any injury, the spine can become rigid, harming your range of motion and causing you pain. Even a small misalignment can cause major issues, so it's important to address them right away.
A misaligned cervical curvature that was caused by an auto accident injury has the potential to impact your energy, the function of your organs, and even movement. It's possible to suffer from:
- Fatigue
- Discomfort
- Sleep disorders

- Disease
- Organ dysfunction
All of these symptoms can be a result of simple misalignments and it can be corrected with Chiropractic Biophysics. Spinal decompression and wellness therapies may also provide pain relief to Whiplash.
