"Thank you Dr. Kerew, D.C. and George for providing a wonderful
place to come for care!! The friendly, professional atmosphere,
caring and individualized approach to my situation is truly appreciated.
I am also grateful to the knowledge I have gained with my specific
problem area of care. I am hopeful that with continued care and
employing the new exercises and stretches I have learned - that
I will have even more corrected posture and decreased stiffness/inflammation
in my neck and back. Thank you both so much for helping me to achieve
this goal and taking a special interest in me, by improving my quality
of life in a variety of ways."

efficiency to establish their highest level of coordination
and to maintain stamina at peak levels.
Rapid recovery from injury is critical for the athlete. Muscles, tendons and ligaments depend upon proper joint movement for peak performance. Injuries to these tissues can reduce range of motion, affect nerves, decrease blood supply and leave you on the sideline.
Dr. Lynn Kerew, D.C. recognizes that faulty body mechanics can place stress on the nervous system. This restricts the range of motion, reduces strength, slows reflexes, shortens endurance, impairs balance, upsets co-ordination and decreases performance.
Chiropractic care helps restore function to spinal joints, improves muscle balance and removes nerve irritation, helping to speed the healing of soft tissue. Chiropractic care for sports injuries has become increasingly popular through the years.
At Family Chiropractic, Dr. Lynn Kerew, D.C. can work with you to provide a care plan that meets your needs. Whether you are professional athlete, a jogger or a weekend warrior, chiropractic care can help treat and rehabilitate injuries to the spine, arms, legs, feet, hands, chest, head and jaw.
Dr. Kerew, D.C.'s role is to give you advice on: appropriate fitness workouts,
daily stretching and sports preparation exercises, helpful training programs,

Whiplash injury occurs when the body reacts to a deceleration/acceleration
force by hyperflexion or hyperextension of the neck.
It is essential for anyone who has suffered a whiplash injury to see Dr. Kerew, D.C. as soon as possible, even after emergency room care. While Dr. Kerew, D.C. may refer you to another practitioner, if necessary, most treatment can be performed at our office.
Whiplash injuries are very common in car accidents. The whiplash injury is in, part due to the fact that muscles do not have enough time to brace themselves. Uncomplicated cases of whiplash are the result of sprained ligaments in the neck; the muscles naturally spasm as a protective mechanism. Pain from whiplash can result in a stiff neck or may travel down one or both arms. Regular Chiropractic care can relieve simple cases of whiplash.
Severe Cases of Whiplash
A more severe case of whiplash can come with persistent, ongoing pain that lasts for a month or more. This pain may indicate that whiplash more extensively damaged and/or trapped the nerves.
Whiplash can also lead to discs rupturing in the neck or a "slipped"
or herniated disc in the back. Other symptoms from a car accident/whiplash
may include radiating pain in the shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand, lower
back pain, leg pain, headaches, and more.
An article published in the Journal of Orthopedic Medicine in 1999 pointed to the superiority of Chiropractic care for patients suffering from long term whiplash.
The authors of the article noted that a previous study had shown that 93% of patients with chronic whiplash benefited from Chiropractic care.
In the authors' own study, they interviewed 100 consecutive Chiropractic referrals of patients with chronic whiplash. Their results also showed that of the 93 patients who remained in the study, 69 of them showed a 74% noticeable improvement with regards to decreased pain syndromes.
The researchers concluded that, "The results from this study provide further evidence that chiropractic is an effective treatment for chronic whiplash symptoms."
