Auto Accident Injury Treatment

Whiplash is a common injury resulting from the sudden jerking of the head, often occurring in car accidents. This injury can lead to neck pain, headaches, dizziness, and a host of other uncomfortable symptoms. At Denver Physical Medicine & Rehab, we specialize in diagnosing and treating whiplash and other auto-related injuries. Our goal is to help you regain mobility, reduce pain, and restore your quality of life.

Our experienced physical therapists create personalized rehabilitation programs tailored to your specific needs. We focus on:

Effective pain management is crucial for recovery from whiplash. Our team employs various strategies, including:
