Cervical Strain (Whiplash Injury)

A one-page care plan for patients with Cervical Strain (Whiplash Injury), covering Purpose, Prevention & Protection, Expectations & Execution, Nutrition, Next Steps & Numbers, Consistency, Indications and Lifestyle & Long-Term Success.

In this plan

  1. Purpose, Prevention & Protection

    • I get checked soon after a crash, fall, or sports hit to rule out a more serious neck injury.
    • I avoid forceful neck movement until my neck has been checked.
    • Once cleared, I move my neck gently and keep up light daily activity as I can.
    • I use a neck collar only if my care team tells me to.
