Whiplash injuries often include concussions, dizziness, vertigo, headache, and jaw pain. Our therapists are specially trained in the management of each of these issues so we are able to address any of your PT treatment needs associated with your injury.
Total recovery requires a proactive and informed approach and that is what you will receive at Union PT.
