Even a minor car accident can have a significant impact on your body. Whiplash is one of the most common injuries after a vehicle accident. You may not even notice the neck pain right away but realize in a few days that you have some pain, stiffness and discomfort. You might also notice headaches, fatigue, back pain, problems sleeping and even anxiety. Whiplash occurs when your neck moves quickly backward and then forward.

You can also get whiplash after a sudden fall or if you get hit in the head. St. Paul Chiropractic & Natural Medicine Center specializes in whiplash treatment and can help you get back to your pre-accident condition with a tailored and personalized treatment approach.
