Types of therapy for whiplash

 

If a medical professional has diagnosed that you are suffering from the symptoms of whiplash, they may suggest from one of a range of possible treatments and therapies.

Traditionally soft neck collars for whiplash injuries would be prescribed along with heat treatments and pain killers to reduce stiffness and discomfort in the neck area.

Medical professionals are increasingly favouring both newer conventional and also complimentary therapies for whiplash, which can provide equal if not superior relief from the condition.

Below are brief descriptions of some of the therapies now available to whiplash sufferers that you may want to find out more about.


Cranial Osteopathy

Treating whiplash with Cranial Osteopathy can be used as Osteopaths are often able to feel the effects of these stresses locked into the body. In Osteopathy it is believed that the head and upper neck dictate the well being of the rest of the body.

Chiropractic

Chiropractic treatment for whiplash can be used to help regain lost movement, ease pain, and strengthen muscles in the neck, shoulders and back. This treatment can also help to speed up recovery and relieve persistent symptoms.

Acupuncture

Relieving whiplash symptoms using Acupuncture, which is an ancient Eastern technique of using fine needles to pierce specific points on the body, and correct the body's flow of energy to encourage the healing process. This technique is often been found to relieve the longer term side effects of a whiplash injury, such as headaches and neck pain.

Alexander Technique

F.M Alexander found that excessive tension restricts movements and creates pressure on the joints, spine, breathing mechanism and other organs. Some medical professionals regard using Alexander technique for treatment of whiplash as an effective alternative complementary therapy for easing the symptoms of the condition.
