Whiplash Treatment in Arlington, WA
Whiplash happens when the head snaps forward and back, often in a rear-end crash. It strains muscles, ligaments and joints in the neck, and symptoms can take days to show up. Dr. Woodbury is certified in whiplash biomechanics, so your care is built on how these injuries really happen.

How Long Does Whiplash Treatment Take?
Mild cases may improve in weeks, while others take months. Getting checked early and following a plan helps the tissues heal well.
Will a Chiropractor Help With Whiplash?
Often, yes. Dr. Woodbury holds advanced certification in whiplash biomechanics and injury traumatology. Gentle adjustments, soft tissue work and rehab help the injured neck move and heal. See a medical doctor first for severe pain, numbness or a head injury.
What Should You Not Do With Whiplash?
Avoid keeping your neck still for days, heavy lifting and pushing through sharp pain with hard stretches. Gentle movement within your comfort range usually helps more than rest alone. Get checked before you start exercises.
