Find Out How A Dallas GA Chiropractor Alleviates Whiplash And Neck Pain Naturally

By Andre Ferlo


Your neck does a lot of work - the average adult head weighs eight to ten pounds. It is also quite vulnerable to damage.

Whenever the head is violently shifted in opposing directions, this can result in misalignment of the neck and skull and it will also cause strains and sprains within the neck tendons. Degenerative disorders can also create neck pain, as can poor posture. If you have problems in your neck, you are more likely to experience headaches as a symptom as well.

Most people simply take painkillers for neck pain and carry on, but this does nothing to resolve the underlying situation - and many neck problems will only get worse over time. A Dallas GA chiropractic clinic will do a full examination to discover the cause of your neck pain. It is particularly important to get examined after a low speed auto accident, because whiplash injuries can be asymptomatic for several days.

Therapy will include cervical manipulation - an adjustment of the vertebrae in the neck, muscle stimulation or massage, therapeutic exercise and changes in lifestyle to improve posture and keep the neck in good shape. In most cases, the chiropractor will recommend a combination of these therapies. Massage can be particularly good after an accident as it can reduce anxiety and stress.

If you have been in an accident, make sure to tell the chiropractor - some chiropractors will actually offer a free consultation to accident victims so they have something to take to their lawyer right away - and they will help make sure everything is recorded correctly for any claims.

Chiropractors do not just resolve symptoms but look at the entire situation, so any plan of care will be different, taking into account symptoms, underlying causes and lifestyle. If you have neck pain, then call a chiropractor today to find out how it can be resolved without drugs or surgery.
