Introduction
Whiplash isn’t just a term thrown around in medical dramas; it’s a real and often painful neck injury resulting from a forceful, back-and-forth jolting of the neck. While frequently linked to car mishaps, the truth is, whiplash can arise from various incidents, from sporting clashes to sudden falls. If you’ve experienced it, you know the signature signs: that persistent neck ache, the stiffness, and sometimes even those nagging headaches. But here’s the good news: physical therapy might just be your best ally in this recovery journey.
