Whiplash is a neck injury, caused by a rapid acceleration and deceleration of the neck and head, relative to the rest of the body. It’s found in almost all concussion injuries and its severity varies, as does recovery timelines and treatment. Whiplash symptoms may include, but are not limited to, neck stiffness, headache, localised pain, tingling and numbness.
Our Cairns whiplash treatment commences with a comprehensive assessment of your current state, taking into account your lifestyle and the impact whiplash has on your wellbeing. We investigate which structures have been damaged and are causing pain, preparing personalised Cairns whiplash treatment regimes to deliver the best outcomes, for you.
At Wellness Embodied we focus our Cairns whiplash treatment on you. With expertise in a range of modalities, we can tailor your treatment pathway to deliver optimum results. Treatment may include joint mobilisation, soft tissue release, taping, dry needling and specific, physiotherapist guided rehabilitation. Hands on therapy and evidence-based rehabilitation.
Francesco believes in an evidence-based approach and values building a trusting and collaborative relationship with his patients, providing support throughout their recovery and disease management journey. Francesco speaks English and Italian.
