Whiplash Treatment In Overland Park, KS
We see many folks with neck pain after a car crash in our Overland Park, KS chiropractic practice. Because of the nature of car crashes, neck injury is very common and it's a problem that KC Spine and Sport may be able to treat.
In a crash, your body is exposed to forces more severe than what a fighter pilot experiences, so it's no wonder injury may occur. In fact, the first head restraints were designed for jet fighter planes to prevent this exact type of injury!
Neck pain may become chronic after a crash if not treated promptly. We recommend that patients come into our Overland Park, KS practice immediately after an injury. While you may experience extreme tenderness and swelling, KC Spine and Sport may still gently work to mobilize the tissues of your neck to prevent scar tissue from forming.
If you've been in a collision, it's important to make sure that you get the care you need to treat your auto injury pain. Call our Overland Park, KS practice today at (913) 766-0054 to make an appointment today.
Get Ahead Of Your Neck Pain Before It Becomes Chronic
Many of our Overland Park, KS patients have questions about why they're in so much pain after a car crash. Sometimes, the crash didn't even do much damage to the car...but they're still in a lot of pain.
If you're suffering from chronic pain caused by a car crash, you're not alone. We see a lot of patients in our Overland Park, KS office who come to us after suffering for years after a crash.
Chronic pain after a collision is pretty simple: the delicate ligaments and nerves in your neck and back are easily injured in even minor collisions. If these injuries aren't treated promptly (by actually solving the root problem), the damaged tissues develop scar tissue and lose mobility, resulting in loss of function and pain.
KC Spine and Sport and the rest of the staff here are trained to diagnose and treat auto injuries to help restore your normal spinal function and get you out of pain.
Don't wait until chronic symptoms develop to get care. We're here in Overland Park to help you stay healthy and pain free. Give our office a call today at (913) 766-0054 to make an appointment. You can also click here to learn more about the benefits of chiropractic care.
We stay up-to-date with all of the latest scientific research on injury here at KC Spine and Sport, and studies show that the forces during a crash are so high, the ligaments in your neck can actually be stretched and torn. This causes swelling and tenderness and can lead to the creation of scar tissue. Scar tissue is bad, as it further reduces the normal motion of your spine.
Chiropractic works by restoring that motion and helps to reduce inflammation, pain, and scar tissue in injured tissues. Chiropractic can also work to help you avoid chronic pain that can arise from these types of injuries.
