Whiplash occurs when your head is suddenly jerked forward and backward, commonly in rear-end car accidents. This violent motion can damage the soft tissues, muscles, ligaments, and discs in your neck—even at low speeds.
Whiplash symptoms may not appear for 24-72 hours after an accident. Without proper treatment, acute whiplash can become chronic, leading to long-term pain and disability. Early chiropractic intervention helps prevent these complications.
