Whiplash is more than just a sore neck. It’s a spinal injury that often shows up after a car accident, but it can also come from a bike crash, a fall, or even a hit during sport. While the physical pain is a big part of it, what many people don’t realise is that the emotional side of whiplash can slow recovery down just as much.
What whiplash can feel like
Everyone’s experience is different, but common symptoms include:
Neck or back pain
Headaches
Dizziness
Poor sleep
Numbness or tingling
Feeling anxious or --emotionally flat
Trouble with balance
We look at the whole picture
At Belconnen Physio, we don’t just treat your spine—we take the time to understand how you’re feeling emotionally too. Why? Because research shows that emotional stress after an accident is one of the biggest reasons people don’t recover fully from whiplash.
That's why we:
Ask about both your physical and emotional symptoms
Tailor your treatment to you, not just the injury
Help you build self-care habits that support long-term recovery
Offer local, hands-on treatment where needed
Keep checking in and adjusting your plan as you heal
Your recovery, your pace
Some people bounce back quickly. For others, it’s a slower road. Either way, we’re here to walk it with you.
We work together to build a plan that suits your lifestyle and your needs. Whether you’re a busy parent, someone with a desk job, or someone easing back into exercise—we’ll help you get back to what matters most.
