Car Accident Neck Exercises
Dr Barry Marks, Chiropractor Orange County, CA
“How Do I get My Neck Back to Normal?”
We will assume for the sake of simplicity that you have concluded your Initial Relief Care treatment. This treatment has probably taken you anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks. Your pain should now be about 70% better than when you were first injured. It is now time for the second phase of care, which is called Spinal Rehabilitation care.
The two parts to Spinal Rehabilitation Care are:
1. In office visits at roughly twice each week for approximately 4-12 weeks
2. At home care daily, 7 days a week until curve returns to normal
Your in office visits will consist of:
·Various forms of cervical (neck) traction that depends on how severe your loss of curve is to mold your neck into the proper curvature.
·Isoelectronic muscle rehabilitation also known as Russian Stimulation, to increase muscle strength in the back or your neck and shoulders.
·Myofascial release (stretching, deep muscle massage, etc) to remove muscle tension
·Chiropractic spinal adjustments to maintain proper joint alignment and freedom of movement to allow your neck to be curved.
Your “homework” will include:
·General stretching of the neck and upper back that you were assigned in Initial Relief Care to loosen the muscles followed by…
·Head translation exercise to improve upper neck motion and stability
·Neck extension exercise to strengthen the neck
·Gravity traction to stretch the muscles in the front of the neck and mold the neck into the proper curvature.
·Ice pack to relieve inflammation caused by exercise
There are 3 exercises I recommend for the neck if there is a reduced curve on x-ray following an auto accident.
Exercise 1: Head Translation
Stand or sit in a comfortable position. See figure 1.
Imagine your chin being pushed backward, while your neck stays stationary. You should feel increased tension in the upper neck region as your head slides backwards. See figure 2. Hold position for 20 seconds
Return to normal position, figure 1.
Now stick chin outward while neck remains still and hold for 20 seconds. See figure 3.
Repeat movement from position 2 to position 3, 10 times.

Car Accident Information from Dr Barry L Marks, DC
Auto Accident Injury Specialist Orange, Orange County, CA
If you’ve been the victim of an auto accident in the past 24 to 72 hours, the clock is ticking…
If you do not take decisive action within the next few hours you could be seriously jeopardizing your access to proper medical treatment and a fair settlement. This one simple action can keep you from suffering an uphill battle and endless hassles with the insurrance company.
Unfortuantely, this is information your doctor will not tell you. Most likely neither will you attorney.
Why not?
Because they probably aren’t aware of this important fact. But trust me as someone who has been involved in this industry for over 23 years and someone who has seen the inner workings of the big insurance corporations, this is something you need to know about and take care of immediately.
See, there are certain things insurance adjusters are looking for in your case. And if they don’t see certain things done within certain time frames, they will automatically discount your case…alot. By contrast, if they find certain things in your case, things done the way they like, your case value sky rockets!
Look, you don’t want your case discounted just because you didn’t do one simple thing do you? It would be a shame.
And wouldn’t you like to make sure you get access to the best possible medical care AND ensure a fair settlement? Of course you would.
So right now, before you do anything else, follow this link: Whiplash 72 Hours. You’ll thank me later.

An auto accident, even a “minor” one, can have serious and long-lasting repercussions if not handled correctly.
Common Legal Mistakes:
- Not obtaining information from the other party
- Falling prey to “don’t report it to my insurance, I’ll pay you cash…”
- Believing the other person’s insurance wants to help you

Common Medical Mistakes:
- Assuming you are not injured because your pain is mild
- Assuming you aren’t hurt because your car wasn’t
- Believing the ER doctor when he or she says “it’s just a strain, you’ll be better in a couple of days…”
