Why Should YOU get Checked out NOW!   

In a true whiplash injury, the mechanics of the collision including occupant kinematics, injury biomechanics and risk factors play into a person sustaining an injury. Research shows that about 50% of those involved in motor vehicle accidents sustain injury. If left untreated, a simple injury can turn complex and chronic in a matter of weeks to months. Have a qualified Whiplash Traumatology Doctor evaluate your collision and injuries is the best way to prevent Chronic Pain and Long Term Disability.

Why is a Doctors Post Graduate Training Important?

Doctors obtain a general knowledge basis in medical, chiropractic, physical therapy, or occupational therapy school. Depending on the program, this allows for an in-depth knowledge of anatomy, neurology, biochemistry, system physiology, orthopedic, etc.

Specialty conditions such as Whiplash, Chronic Pain, Brain Injury, Traumatic Stress and Exercise Prescription require additional training as the shear volume of information regarding these subjects is to cumbersome to obtain in a medical program.

The need for specific training is further supported by the authors of the Quebec Task Force on Whiplash Associated Disorders, in which these authors note that specific voluntary post graduate training is required in order to a healthcare provider to accurately diagnosis and treat whiplash.
