As of today, I have earned an advanced certification in Whiplash Biomechanics & Injury Traumatology. The certification comes from the Spine Research Institute of San Diego. Dr. Arthur Croft was the instructor for this program. Dr. Croft is an author and an expert on the subject of whiplash. I consider him to be one of my most influential mentors.
Since much of my practice is dedicated to treating patients with whiplash injuries, I especially value the information I've learned in this program. Staying on the cutting edge of research and information is another way that we strive to better serve our patients.
Half of the patients we see are here as a result of an auto accident. Whiplash is by far the most common condition of these patients. Technically speaking, whiplash is termed a cervical acceleration deceleration injury. When a vehicle is hit from behind, the driver and passengers are vulnerable to having their head forced back into the headrest and then forward. The result is often damage to the muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs, and nerves of the neck. In many cases, if these injuries go untreated, there could be long term chronic pain and osteoarthritis. Chiropractic care is a very effective treatment for whiplash injuries.
