Whiplash Frequently Asked Questions

Whiplash is a common auto accident injury. If you were in a car accident and are suffering from whiplash, you may get conflicting information on how long your pain will last and how to expedite the healing process. Brookdale Health in Minneapolis is an auto injury chiropractor specializing in the treatment of whiplash and other common auto accident injuries.   Our doctors, experts in auto injuries, understand how to approach healing from a holistic viewpoint and help guide you smoothly back to health.

What is Whiplash?

Whiplash is an injury to the neck and shoulders caused by sudden, unexpected movement that often occurs in a car accident. Whiplash can result in head and neck pain and can take a long time to heal.   Without a specialized treatment plan, whiplash symptoms can linger for months or years after your auto accident.

How Do I Know if I'm Experiencing Whiplash?

The most common symptoms of whiplash are head and neck pain, but fatigue, shoulder pain, anxiety, and lower back pain are also commonly reported among whiplash victims. The complex symptoms associated with whiplash require advanced training to diagnose and treat. At Brookdale Health, our doctors have seen it all when it comes to whiplash and other auto accident injuries, and we are prepared to put together a customized treatment plan to fit your unique case.

What Treatments are Most Effective for Whiplash?

Treatment can vary widely depending on the severity of the whiplash, the symptoms you are experiencing, and your overall health. A treatment plan that combines several different approaches is often the most effective and may include physical therapy, chiropractic care, and massage therapy. At Brookdale Health we employ massage therapists who specialize in auto accident massages. They work closely with our chiropractic doctors and physical therapists to create a customized treatment plan that addresses your unique needs.
