Could a Neck Stretcher Help You Overcome Whiplash?

Every year over 250,000 people in the United States alone suffer whiplash. This common consequence of car crashes is a kind of "neck stretcher" of its own.

What's Whiplash?

When a driver slams on the brakes, the car stops but the passengers inside it are still moving forward. The passenger is slammed forward and then back, straining the muscles, tendons, nerves, and fascia of the neck.

Whiplash usually causes stiff and painful neck and shoulders. It's not unusual for people who suffer whiplash to complain that they feel like they have a bowling ball weighing down on their shoulder blades. The neck muscles are too tired and too inflamed to support the weight of the head—even when lying down.

How the Exercise that Saves Your Back Can Hurt Your Neck

Unfortunately, even if you have enough sick leave to take to bed after suffering whiplash, bed rest can actually trigger lower back problems, too. You have to keep moving. The problem is, walking around is what usually triggers even worse pain in the neck after whiplash. Part of the way your body keeps its balance when you walk is by moving the neck and shoulders up and down. If they are injured, every movement can trigger pain—so part of the solution to supporting normal neck movement after whiplash can be a "neck stretcher."

"Angelic" Protection from Your Neck Stretcher.

A neck stretcher is nothing more than a neck brace in the shape of a halo. Looking a lot like a neck pillow you might use to get sleep on an airplane, a neck stretcher is stuffed with natural materials that are soft enough but not too soft to protect the neck against the forces of gravity without limiting range of motion.

But don't read just neck stretchers.
