Millions of auto accidents occur in the United States each and every year. Out of those accidents, roughly 1/6 result in whiplash injuries to the neck. Many people are unaware that the symptoms of an auto accident injury will often be delayed. These injuries can lead to very serious ailments which can result in a lifetime of problems and pain if left untreated.

It is critical that chiropractic care is sought immediately after a car accident as allowing the effects of whiplash to go untreated can induce long-term pain. The severity of the physical effects of a car accident are not always felt immediately following. It can take days, weeks or even months for major symptoms to show up. Chiropractic care is essential to maintaining the health of a spine that has been through a trauma.
Whiplash is a unique condition that requires the expertise of a skilled health professional specially trained to work with these types of injuries. The most effective treatment for whiplash injuries is a combination of chiropractic care, rehabilitation of the soft tissues and taking care of yourself at home.
Pulstar Impulse Adjusting for Treating Whiplash and Other Common Conditions as a Results of an Automobile Accident
The PulStar is safe and effective for all ages from infants to seniors because it uses precise computer controlled gentle impulses. No strong or heavy forces or twisting is required to produce the desired results of treatment. The piezoelectric sensor in the Pulstar instrument responds and registers information faster than the body’s ability to react. Therefore, a precise and accurate picture of the extent of rigidity or fluidity of each vertebra is reflected and graphed on a computer screen.
Our patients regard this treatment therapy as convenient & gentle as well as highly effective in treating painful conditions such as low back pain, neck pain, whiplash, pinched nerves, herniated discs, numbness, and headaches.
