Welcome to Health Touch Chiropractic Whiplash Page. We trust that you will find our Whiplash Page useful in making your decision for Chiropractors in Tigard, OR.
Whiplash is a common neck injury that occurs when the head is suddenly forced forward and backward — most often in car accidents. Even low-speed collisions can cause significant ligament and muscle damage.
Whiplash Symptoms
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Headaches
- Shoulder or upper back pain
- Dizziness
- Reduced range of motion
- Numbness or tingling
Delayed Symptoms Are Common
Whiplash symptoms may not appear immediately. Some patients develop pain days or even weeks after an accident. Early evaluation is important to prevent chronic issues.
