Written By ChiroSports USA on January 5, 2025

Auto injuries like whiplash can have a delayed onset of symptoms, leading you to believe you are fine until days or weeks after the accident. At ChiroSports USA, we encourage our patients to visit us immediately after an auto accident to be screened for common auto injuries. We can check you for signs of concussion, spinal injury, head injury, and neck injuries like whiplash. Here is a look at how we offer chiropractic whiplash treatment and neck pain relief in Pleasanton and Union City, CA, without the use of prescription painkillers.

Addressing the Root Cause of Your Neck Pain

Our chiropractor, Dr. Abdollah Nejad, focuses on addressing the root cause of your neck pain rather than just temporarily masking your symptoms with painkillers. Dr. Nejad will use an x-ray combined with a comprehensive physical examination to diagnose whiplash or another auto injury or neck injury.

Unlocking the Body’s Natural Ability to Heal Itself

Chiropractic care is a safe, all-natural alternative to prescription painkillers and more invasive treatment options. Our chiropractic therapies unlock your body’s natural ability to heal itself by stimulating biological and chemical processes necessary for healing. As your body responds to chiropractic therapy, it will release chemicals, nutrients, and hormones that relieve pain, improve circulation and blood flow, reduce inflammation and swelling, relax muscles and tendons, and improve range of motion.

Combining Chiropractic Therapies for Accelerated Healing

If you have whiplash after being in a car accident, there is a chance you also have other auto injuries as well. Whiplash often goes hand-in-hand with head injuries and neck injuries. By combining chiropractic therapies, we can treat more than one auto injury at the same time and accelerate your healing process. Dr. Nejad’s chiropractic therapies are non-invasive and offer pain relief while also reducing inflammation and swelling, lowering your risk of complications like chronic pain, and improving your range of motion and flexibility. His chiropractic therapies include chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, laser therapy, cryotherapy, kinesio taping, physiotherapy, compression recovery, and whole-body vibration therapy.

Visit ChiroSports USA After a Car Accident

When you visit us at ChiroSports USA immediately after a car accident, Dr. Nejad can screen you for symptoms of an auto injury and use diagnostic imaging tests to determine if you have a spine injury, head injury, or neck injury. We offer a wide range of drug-free chiropractic therapies that relieve pain, inflammation, and stiffness while accelerating the healing process.
