Whiplash Chiropractor in Addison TX

If you are searching for a trusted whiplash chiropractor in Addison TX, Dr. Madeline C. Johnston at Addison Chiropractic provides gentle, effective care to help relieve pain and restore normal movement after an injury. Whiplash is a common condition following auto accidents and can cause lasting discomfort if not properly treated.

What Is Whiplash?

Whiplash is a neck injury caused by a sudden back-and-forth motion of the head, often occurring during a car accident. This rapid movement can strain muscles, ligaments, and joints in the neck.

Symptoms may include:

  • Neck pain and stiffness

  • Headaches

  • Shoulder and upper back pain

  • Reduced range of motion

  • Dizziness

  • Fatigue

Symptoms may not appear immediately and can develop hours or even days after an accident.

How Chiropractic Care Helps Whiplash

Chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper movement and reducing inflammation after injury. Treatment may include:

  • Gentle chiropractic adjustments

  • Soft tissue techniques to reduce tension

  • Mobility exercises

  • Postural guidance

  • Dry needling for muscle tightness

  • Low level Laser

These treatments help:

  • Reduce pain and stiffness

  • Improve range of motion

  • Decrease inflammation

  • Promote natural healing

Dr. Johnston uses Diversified, Thompson, activator, and extremity techniques to customize care based on your condition.
