Whiplash

Most people associate Whiplash with motor vehicle accidents, but there are many causes including bungee jumping, falls, and even headbanging. It is one of the most frequently claimed injuries on vehicle insurance policies in certain countries. While there is broad consensus that acute whiplash is not uncommon, the topic of chronic whiplash is controversial, however, Impact recognizes whiplash to be a serious condition that is treatable with non-opioid non-surgical solutions. Whiplash injuries are almost always the beginning of neck problems that lead to osteoarthritis if not properly managed.

Common Whiplash Symptoms

• Neck pain and stiffness that may worsen with movement
• Headaches originating at the base of the skull
• Dizziness or reduced range of motion in the neck
• Shoulder, arm, or upper back pain

Why Whiplash Should Be Treated Early

Whiplash symptoms don't always appear right away—sometimes taking hours or days to surface after an accident. Getting evaluated early helps prevent the soft tissue damage from developing into chronic neck problems or long-term osteoarthritis.
