Whiplash refers to neck injury resulting from sudden back and forth neck movement during an auto accident. It mostly happens during rear-end car accidents.
If you are suffering from whiplash after a car accident, Mael Chiropractic is here to help you. Our chiropractor will examine you to determine the cause of the auto accident injury and develop a tailored treatment method for your condition. This will give you both short- and long-term pain relief. We are located in Allston and provide our services to the greater Boston area.
How Can You Know if You Have Whiplash?
Here are some of the signs that might be a sign of whiplash.
- Neck pain
- Neck stiffness
- Frequent headaches which often start from your skull’s base
- Numbness and tingling in the arms
- Fatigue
- Dizziness
When to Seek Treatment
It’s important to seek treatment immediately when you experience signs of whiplash. You will get examined and treated promptly to relieve you from pain and discomfort. Delaying to seek treatment may worsen your condition, especially when there are severe injuries. You might not experience any symptoms of whiplash a few hours after an auto accident injury. The symptoms can even show up days after. That’s why it’s advisable to seek treatment after getting involved in an auto accident, even when you don’t have any signs of injury.
Chiropractic Care for Whiplash Treatment
Chiropractic care is an effective method for treating whiplash. Our chiropractor uses different techniques to treat whiplash, including:
- Spinal manipulation
- Muscle relaxation

Our chiropractor identifies the cause of your pain before treating you. That helps in giving you relief from pain and discomfort and prevents the pain from recurring. Chiropractic care is non-invasive, unlike other procedures such as surgery, and has a speedy recovery.
