North Royalton OH, 12-JUNE-2015 - Timber Ridge Neck & Back Clinic and Dr. Patrick McCluskey, D. C. Are pleased to announce that victims of whiplash injuries can use chiropractic measures to relieve the pain and related symptoms. The North Royalton chiropractor has the knowledge and the tools to help patients identify the location and severity of the injury and to assist in the recovery process.

Whiplash injuries are generally soft tissue damage, but can also be characterized by misalignments of the cervical spinal column. When the chiropractor is consulted promptly after an accident which could cause whiplash injuries, much of the pain could be prevented. The chiropractor will identify the areas of possible damage to the muscles and connective tissues and develop a therapy plan.

Identification of the injuries is a first step in recovery from whiplash. Dr. McCluskey does a careful examination of the patient to collect the necessary data for designing a care plan. The therapeutic techniques are individualized for each patient and type of injuries which have been incurred. The chiropractor works with the patient in each case to inform and encourage. Patient participation is a key part of recovery.

Pain relief methods can include heat and cold therapy as well as massage. If the alignment of the neck vertebrae has been damaged, a spinal adjustment may be required.

As the level of pain is lessened or eliminated, the doctor can follow up with more long-term therapy measures. Posture correction and exercise to strengthen challenged muscles can help to prevent similar injuries in the future.
