At Spinal Care Clinics in Brentwood, we specialise in diagnosing and treating whiplash and accident-related injuries. Our expert team helps you recover faster, move better, and feel like yourself again.
Understanding Whiplash & Car Accident Injuries
Whiplash occurs when the neck is forcefully thrown backward and forward—commonly in rear-end collisions.
Even low-speed impacts can cause lasting damage to muscles, joints, and nerves.
Common symptoms we see:
- Neck stiffness or pain
- Headaches (often from the base of the skull)
- Shoulder and upper back discomfort
- Dizziness or blurred vision
- Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the arms
We treat the cause—not just the symptoms—using a targeted, whole-body approach.
