We can help you focus on treatment that will put the accident and the headaches behind you.
Have You Been in a Car Accident?
Being in a car accident can cause a lot of stress and frustration. There may be injuries to deal with, along with insurance companies, repairs, and other issues. If you're experiencing headaches in the midst of all that, it's likely due to the sudden stop your body experienced during the collision. That stop can easily push your spine, head, and neck out of alignment.
Is Whiplash Causing Your Headaches?
Whiplash is one of the most common causes of pain after a car accident and can cause headaches. It's among the first things our chiropractor will look for when you come to them for treatment. Be sure to tell him about your accident, so he can help you get the right treatment faster.
Some Headaches Come from Other Causes
It's also possible that whiplash isn't the cause for your headaches because the problem could also be referred pain from your shoulder or even your upper back. Areas of the spine that get out of alignment can send pain through nerves to other areas. Sometimes, one area of the body's misalignment also puts pressure on tendons, ligaments, and other structures, which can cause headaches and other pains.
