๐ก What Is Whiplash?
Whiplash is a soft tissue injury of the neck caused by a sudden jerking motion, typically from a car crash or sports impact. This rapid movement strains the muscles, ligaments, and spinal joints in your neck and upper back.
๐จ Common Whiplash Symptoms
- Neck pain or stiffness
- Headaches (often starting at the base of the skull)
- Shoulder, upper back, or arm pain
- Tingling or numbness in the arms
- Dizziness, fatigue, or difficulty concentrating
- Pain that worsens with movement
Symptoms may appear hours or days after the injury — making early diagnosis critical.
๐ฉบ How We Diagnose Whiplash
At Healthy Habits, we take a thorough and trauma-informed approach:
- Cervical spine and posture assessment
- Range of motion and neurological testing
- Functional movement evaluation
- Imaging referrals (X-rays, MRI, if necessary)
