Imagine driving through a hard rain storm when the car in front of you comes to an unexpected stop. You quickly slow down only to have the car behind yours hit your rear end. Luckily, there are no serious injuries, but that night, you feel a dull ache in your neck, what do you do now?
Any substantial blow to your body, whether from a car accident, contact sports or an accident at work can cause whiplash or other neck injuries and warrants a thorough chiropractic check up.
Following a fall or car accident where a sudden or powerful jolt to the neck occurred, and irregardless of whether symptoms of a Whiplash are present, it is always wise to contact Dr. Suzi Desai to schedule a spinal evaluation. Acting proactively can save patients time, money and, most of all, pain down the road.
