Whiplash Treatment at ProRehab Integrated Healthcare Specialists LLC

Effective, Natural Relief After Neck Trauma or Car Accidents

Whiplash is a soft tissue injury most commonly caused by auto accidents, sports injuries, or sudden impacts. It can lead to lingering pain, headaches, stiffness, and reduced range of motion. At ProRehab in San Marcos, our multi-specialty team provides personalized, non-invasive treatment to help you recover fully, without surgery or long-term medication use.

Our chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists, and acupuncturists collaborate to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and restore full neck function.

Signs and Symptoms of Whiplash

  • Neck pain and stiffness

  • Headaches, often starting at the base of the skull

  • Shoulder, upper back, or arm pain

  • Dizziness or balance issues

  • Tingling or numbness in the arms or hands

  • Difficulty concentrating or memory issues

  • Fatigue or sleep disruption

  • Limited range of motion in the neck

Whiplash symptoms may appear immediately or several days after the injury.

Common Causes of Whiplash

  • Rear-end car accidents

  • Sports collisions or falls

  • Physical assault or shaking injuries

  • Amusement park rides or sudden jerking motion

  • Workplace incidents involving abrupt impact

Any forceful motion that causes the head to snap forward and backward can strain or tear the soft tissues in the neck.

F.A.Q. – Whiplash Treatment

Q: How soon after an accident should I get treated for whiplash?
 A: Ideally within 24–72 hours. Early intervention helps reduce inflammation, prevent stiffness, and improve recovery time.

Q: Do you accept auto accident or personal injury cases?
 A: Yes. We commonly work with patients who were in car accidents and can assist with documentation and care coordination.

Q: Can whiplash cause long-term problems if untreated?
 A: Yes. Without treatment, whiplash can lead to chronic neck pain, limited mobility, and headaches.

Q: Is imaging (X-ray or MRI) required?
 A: Not always. Imaging may be used if symptoms are severe or if there’s concern about bone or disc involvement.

Q: Will I need chiropractic adjustments right away?
 A: That depends on your condition. We may start with gentle manual therapy or massage before progressing to adjustments.
