Whiplash Treatment

Whiplash Doctors In Nashville, TN

If you have been in a car accident or suffered from a rear end auto collision, chances are good that you need therapy and treatment for whiplash. Often you will feel pain in your neck or back after an accident that results from the impact of the collision.

What Is Whiplash

Whiplash is the neck strain or injury that results from a jarring of the neck forward and backward or sideways. It often happens in car accidents when the whiplash victim is hit from behind. Simply defined, whiplash is neck strain. Damage is caused when the neck stretches and the muscles and tendons within the neck are affected resulting in muscle strain and other conditions. Range of motion may be greatly impacted with the whiplash patient having very limited ability to turn his or her neck in one or both directions following the collision. Whiplash can be minor or severe. It is a serious injury that can result in permanent damage.

Whiplash Therapy (Chiropractic Doctor Whiplash)

Whiplash injuries, while common, are considered serious injuries. Examples of the serious effects include the neck becoming unstable, spasms, extreme loss of range of motion, and even spinal fractures. Our Injury Doctors at Nashville Accident and Injury Center diagnose and treat your car accident injuries without invasive procedures or surgery. Whiplash treatment starts with a thorough diagnosis to determine the severity of your injuries. Severe whiplash can result in the straightening of the cervical vertebrae, which puts pressure on the nerves and soft tissues of the neck and can cause bones spurs if left untreated.

Whiplash treatment usually starts with non-force adjustments to reduce pain and restore range of motion and the curvature of the neck. By restoring the curvature, we are preventing further injuries and permanent loss of range of motion. Additional treatments may include stretching, strengthening exercises and laser therapy, which helps speed the healing process and restore range of motion.

To schedule an examination to check for back and neck injuries after your auto accident injury or for whiplash treatment, please call our Nashville chiropractic office at 615-492-8906.

Treatments That Can Help With Whiplash

How Does Chiropractic Care Help Whiplash?

Spinal misalignments and bulging, herniated and slipped discs are common during car accidents. Chiropractic care is effective at treating these ailments via manual and actuator adjustments, spinal decompression, laser therapy and spinal remodeling.

How Does Cold Laser Therapy Help Whiplash?

Laser therapy is used to treat Nashville car accident injuries by stimulating the deep tissues and cells of the body. Once properly stimulated, these cells start to regenerate, resulting in true healing.

Spinal Remodeling For Whiplash Injuries

Spinal remodeling is a specialized form of traction. It helps retrain the muscles and ligaments of the back. Once the ligaments and muscles are retrained, they are better able to support the spine, which helps heal current car accident injuries and helps prevent future back and neck injuries.

I have seen their Nashville accident and injury center from a year now for just preventative maintenance. There has been a tremendous improvement on my overall fitness and energy levels compared to before. I can’t thank them enough. The auto accident I was in reallytook a toll on my life but thanks to these Dr. Bearden and his team for the great chiropractic care and a very supportive nature.

If you are searching for auto accident injury treatment in Nashville, then you should give them a call. I was grappling with so much neck pain for nearly a year after my accident. Tried so many approaches whether its physical therapy, medicines or massage but all of them were only short term relief. Within a short period of time, I could tell an enormous breakthrough with my pain levels and after 2 and a half months was off my meds and sleeping well again. Only wish I found them sooner.

From the years of strenuous workout of power lifting and squats, my spine was exhausted. After months of suffering with chronic, re-occuring pain, I scheduled an appointment with their center. Right off the bat, they addressed all of my concerns re: Insurance and ability to pay and what to expect from one week to the next. After a month of treatment I was back in the gym at a capacity I hadn’t achieved for several years. I am optimistic this has saved me from future back surgery and having to resort to pain management. I tell everybody at my gym to try this first before resorting to other dangerous methods recommended to me by the other people.

2 years ago, I was brutally hit by a car which caused me immense neck pain and sciatica. Dr. Bearden and Dr. Josh were great at fixingmy spinal alignment with their gentle traction method and rehab. I was lucky to find them and hopefully avoid any future chronic pain down the road.

Their spinal decompression therapy ended up being the best therapy for my grandfather. In fact, he wasn’t able to sit properly and donormal work around the house. But because of these great folks, he is now doing everything on his own without any support of a family member.

I found this clinic after being turned away from my regular doctors office because of “third party pay” after my car accident. Their Insurance dep’t was helpful in assisting me with resolving my case so that I could focus on my health and overall recovery.

Nashville accident and injury center treatment plans are quite easy to follow for treating the pain and ache in the body. I went to this doctor at the hard time of Covid; each and every staff member had taken a proper precaution while wearing a masks and gloves. Overall I am impressed with the careful measures they have taken. Within a few sessions, they reduced the back problem from my back and neck. It was an effective treatment and I strongly referring them high enough.
