A past case study reveals that chronic whiplash injury patients can
respond well to conservative management including chiropractic spinal
manipulation, soft tissue work, and post-isometric relaxation techniques in
addition to active rehabilitation exercises, self stretches, and proprioceptive
exercises.
After seven treatments, a patient with chronic whiplash-associated
disorder reported no neck pain, no headaches, and had unrestricted cervical
spine range of motion. Four months after treatment ceased, the patient reported
only mild, intermittent neck pain.
