Comprehensive Whiplash Treatment in Shawnee

If you've been in an auto accident in Shawnee, Kansas, and are experiencing neck pain, headaches, or stiffness, you may be suffering from whiplash. At Move Muscle & Joint, we provide comprehensive, evidence-based whiplash treatment to help residents throughout Shawnee, including those near Shawnee Mission Park, Mill Creek Streamway Trail, and Shawnee Town 1929 Museum, recover fully from their injuries and prevent long-term complications.

Understanding Whiplash Injuries

Whiplash is a neck injury caused by rapid back-and-forth movement of the head, most commonly occurring during rear-end auto accidents on Shawnee roads. The sudden motion can damage the soft tissues, ligaments, and joints in the neck, leading to pain and dysfunction. Even low-speed collisions can cause significant whiplash injuries, and symptoms may not appear immediately after the accident, making prompt evaluation crucial for Shawnee residents involved in any type of collision.

Common Whiplash Symptoms

Whiplash symptoms can vary in severity and may develop hours or days after an accident. Many of our Shawnee patients report:

• Neck pain and stiffness that worsens with movement
• Headaches, often starting at the base of the skull
• Shoulder pain and upper back discomfort
• Reduced range of motion in the neck
• Dizziness or vertigo
• Fatigue and difficulty concentrating
• Tingling or numbness in the arms
