Auto Accidents & Injuries

Two million whiplash injuries occur every year. — Whiplash occurs when the neck is rapidly forced forward and backward, typically in a car accident.  This rapid “whipping” action causes the vertebrae, muscles and ligaments to become overstretched and jarred out of placel

Common symptoms of whiplash:

  • Pain and stiffness in the neck.
  • Headaches.
  • Pain between the shoulder blades, in the shoulder or lower back.
  • Pain or numbness in the hands.
  • Dizziness, forgetfulness or difficulty concentrating.
  • Ringing in the ears or blurred vision
  • Fatigue, insomnia and irritability.
  • Returning people back to normal activities and normal function is the goal to successfully treating whiplash injuries.

WellnessPlus of Charleston can be able to realign the vertebrae, use therapies to reduce pain and inflammation of the muscles and ligaments and start a regime of rehabilitative exercises to treat the effects of whiplash pain.
