Whiplash Therapy and Sleep Positioning: Tips for Better Rest

A surprising number of people with whiplash say the same thing during recovery: daytime pain is difficult, but nighttime is worse.

What Are the Most Common Goals of Whiplash Therapy?

Whiplash is often described as a neck injury, but that shorthand misses what patients actually deal with.

Whiplash Therapy for People Returning to the Gym After Injury

What to Expect During Your First Whiplash Therapy Session

Apprehension, because your neck hurts, your routine has been disrupted, and you do not know whether the session will be painful, passive, rushed, or overly clinical. Most people arrive with a picture in their heads that is only partly accurate. They expect massage, stretching, maybe a few exercises. Sometimes that happens. More often, a goo

When to Start Whiplash Therapy for the Best Results
