  1. How Can A Chiropractor Treat Whiplash?

  2. Muscle Relaxation Or Stimulation If you are feeling any muscle stiffness or dysfunction, the main whiplash chiropractic treatment used by chiropractors is muscle relaxation or stimulation. This treatment incorporates gentle pressure and stretches of the muscles suffering from regular contractions of the cramped muscle. If the pain is severe or the muscles are too tight, the chiropractor can apply more pressure to ease the muscles and loosen them. The chiropractor will use light or moderate pressure from the fingers to treat the pain in the thigh region.

  3. Interferential Electrical Stimulation While most whiplash chiropractic treatments use the hands-on method, doctors can also employ other techniques. And one such example of that is the use of interferential electrical stimulation devices. This method also transfers low-frequency currents to the injured area to reduce inflammation and pain. The heat emanated by the ultrasound waves relaxes the muscle and thus lowers the pain. And if the problem is critical, the chiropractor can also use ultrasound therapeutically to lower the occurrence of muscle spasms and tension in the neck and boost blood circulation.

  4. Spinal Manipulation Spinal manipulation is a very common form of chiropractic adjustment. The adjustment is also used for positioning the misaligned joints back in their place. To put the joint back in place, the chiropractor can use both quick yet gentle movement and steady mobilizing motions. The injury could lead to a bulging or herniated disc, leading to many physical health issues. Therefore, the hands-on gentle technique is the best for whiplash chiropractic treatment or spinal problems.

  5. Soft Tissue Treatments Since whiplash affects the soft tissues and can harm them, chiropractors often add treatment plans that include working on soft tissue restoration. The treatment aims to restore muscle movement by stretching the muscles and putting pressure to release the tightness from the muscles. Moreover, a chiropractor can mix and match two or more techniques based on the type and extent of the injury. 

  6. Trigger Point Treatment The chiropractors are experts at recognizing spinal joints, which are few and exhibit abnormal motion. In many cases, chiropractors use gentle thrusting movements to restore joint movement. These thrusting motions help ease the tissues and muscles in the body to help restore normal spinal movement. Furthermore, a chiropractor can locate stiff and painful muscles and treat them using gentle pressure from fingers..
