Whiplash is a common injury resulting from car accidents, characterized by neck pain, stiffness, and headaches. Early intervention is crucial for effective recovery. At our practice, we offer comprehensive care for whiplash injuries, including chiropractic adjustments, manual therapy, and cold laser therapy. Our goal is to address both the immediate symptoms and underlying issues to help you recover faster and prevent long-term complications.
Whiplash occurs when the neck is suddenly and forcefully jolted forward and backward, causing damage to the muscles, ligaments, and joints in the cervical spine. Symptoms can include neck pain, headaches, dizziness, and limited range of motion. These symptoms may not appear immediately after the injury, which is why timely assessment and treatment are essential.
Our approach to treating whiplash begins with a thorough evaluation to understand the extent of your injury. This includes a physical examination, medical history review, and diagnostic imaging if necessary. Based on our findings, we develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Chiropractic adjustments are a key component of our whiplash treatment. These adjustments help to realign the spine, reduce nerve irritation, and improve joint function. Our chiropractor uses gentle techniques to ensure your comfort and safety, providing relief from pain and restoring mobility.
Manual therapy is also highly effective for whiplash recovery. This hands-on treatment involves techniques such as massage, mobilization, and stretching to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote healing. By addressing the soft tissue damage caused by whiplash, we help to reduce pain and enhance your overall recovery.
Cold laser therapy is another valuable tool in our whiplash treatment arsenal. This non-invasive therapy uses low-level lasers to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue repair, and alleviate pain. It is particularly beneficial for soft tissue injuries and can help speed up the healing process.
In addition to the treatments mentioned previously, we provide personalized exercise programs to strengthen the muscles supporting your neck and improve flexibility. These exercises are designed to prevent future injuries and maintain long-term spinal health.
At Foothills Chiropractic and Sports Injury Clinic, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care that addresses all aspects of your whiplash injury. Our multidisciplinary approach ensures that we treat both the immediate symptoms and the underlying causes, promoting a full and speedy recovery.

Feel Something Wrong With Your Bones?
MAKE APPOINTMENTBefore I started seeing Dr Haas, I was looking into knee and hip replacement surgery. I had been to physical therapy and Orthopedic doctors for shots. I was in a lot of pain and my movement was rapidly diminishing. I was afraid that within months/years I would be in a wheelchair. My hip was so far out of alignment it was causing all kinds of problems. Thanks to Dr. Haas, I only limp when I am very tired and have very little discomfort comparatively. My quality of life is exponentially better. I am working on regaining the strength I lost; but I honestly couldn’t be happier. Thank you to Dr. Haas and the Foothills Chiropractic staff. They really care!
~NancyWith a lifetime of back issues and chiropractic patient experience, I am super grateful to have been referred to Dr. Haas. He takes his treatments and patient care to a much higher level giving me a better understanding of the complex issues I'm dealing with. He is super knowledgeable, invests in high-level tables/tools, and has many different methods to relieve/resolve back pain. What I love most is his compassion, sincere desire, and ability to bring balance back to the body. You may have to wait longer during your appointments, he's not a get you in-get you out kind of guy. He really wants to understand what his patients are dealing with. Plus, you're not the only one seeking his care. He's that good!
