π Were you recently in a fender bender? Even a βminorβ car accident can cause serious damage to your spine, joints, and soft tissues β even if you didnβt feel it at the time.
Whiplash symptoms may take 24β72 hours to fully appear.
Hereβs what you might feel:
Neck stiffness
Headaches
Shoulder or upper back pain
Trouble sleeping
Foggy thinking or fatigue
π Whatβs happening in your body:
The force of an impact can cause your head to snap forward and back, stretching and micro-tearing muscles and ligaments. Thatβs whiplash β and it can create long-term instability and pain if left untreated.
π¬ A study in the Journal of Orthopedic Medicine found that chiropractic care was the only treatment that consistently improved whiplash symptoms across all severity levels.
