Whip Lash and Auto Accidents

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all enjoying the snow melt this week.

Today I found a couple of video's by a chiropractor in California. I don't know or endorse him, but the information looks useful. I know of insurance companies that have in the past, told people they can't possibly be in pain they weren't going fast enough. I have also known them to say that there is not enough damage to the car to have an injury. Patients as well, will wonder why they hurt so much when it was "just a fender bender". According to this link, it only takes speeds of 2.5-5mph to cause injuries such as whiplash. And you can have a significant injury without visible damage to the vehicle.

These are not the most exciting clips, but it is good information.

Happy viewing,
Dr. Gwen
