Meet Dr. Blake Christensen: Your Whiplash Specialist

Why Whiplash Patients Choose Dr. Christensen

Whiplash forces your head forward and backward faster than your neck muscles can protect it. That damages cervical joints, discs, and nerves that need targeted conservative treatment to improve. Dr. Blake Christensen builds every whiplash treatment plan around the specific structures your collision damages.

Dr. Blake Christensen has treated over 2,500 whiplash patients in Oklahoma City since 2015. As a fifth-generation Oklahoman and double board-certified specialist, he understands the specific damage that rear-end collisions and sudden impacts cause to the cervical spine.

His fellowship training at Rush University Medical Center focused on interventional pain management. That training allows him to treat the cervical joint, disc, and nerve damage that makes whiplash different from general neck pain.

If You Have Whiplash After a Car Accident…

You’re not alone. If you’ve been in a car accident and you’re dealing with:

  • Neck pain that appeared days after the accident

  • Stiffness that makes turning your head painful

  • Headaches that started after the collision

  • Pain in your shoulder and upper back you didn’t have before

  • Numbness or tingling radiating into your arms or hands

Whiplash gets worse without proper treatment. Don’t wait.

“I almost didn’t go because I thought I was fine. Two days later I could barely turn my head. One visit to Oklahoma Pain Treatment Centers and they found the whiplash damage immediately. I started treatment that same week.”

Whiplash Treatment FAQs

  • As soon as possible. Whiplash symptoms can appear days after impact, but the injury happens immediately. Early treatment leads to better outcomes.

  • Yes. When rest, medication, and general treatment haven't improved your whiplash pain, targeted procedures like facet injections and nerve blocks can address the underlying joint and nerve damage. Our whiplash treatment in Oklahoma City focuses on finding and treating the specific source of your pain.

  • Interventional pain specialists use targeted injections and procedures to treat inflammation, nerve damage, and joint injuries directly. Both have value. When adjustments haven’t brought lasting relief, interventional procedures can address the underlying joint and nerve damage.

  • Yes. We work with PIP, Med-Pay, and liability claims. We also coordinate with personal injury attorneys so you can start treatment before your claim settles. We verify coverage and handle the paperwork.

  • Common signs include neck stiffness, pain when turning your head, headaches starting at the base of your skull, shoulder pain, and symptoms that appeared after a car accident. We use diagnostic imaging to confirm.

  • Delayed symptoms are common with whiplash. Soft tissue injuries and cervical damage don’t always cause immediate pain. We treat whiplash regardless of when symptoms started.

  • Mild whiplash often improves within weeks. More severe injuries involving disc damage or chronic facet joint pain may require several months of treatment. You’ll know your timeline from the first visit.

  • Rarely. Over 95% of our patients improve with non-surgical interventional procedures. Surgery is a last resort, not a first option.

  • Untreated whiplash can lead to chronic neck pain, ongoing headaches, and permanent range of motion loss. Early treatment significantly reduces this risk.

  • Yes. Whiplash occurs at speeds as low as 5-10 mph. Vehicle damage doesn’t predict injury severity. Neck trauma happens regardless of how minor the collision looks.

Whiplash Treatment in Oklahoma City Since 2015

Most people underestimate whiplash because the pain starts small. A stiff neck becomes chronic headaches. Tight shoulders become nerve pain radiating down your arms. By the time patients take it seriously, the injury has been compounding for weeks. Oklahoma Pain Treatment Centers catches whiplash early and treats it before the damage compounds.

Your neck absorbs the full force of a collision in a fraction of a second. That damages joints, discs, and nerves that won't show up on a standard ER exam. Whiplash treatment in Oklahoma City requires a specialist who knows which imaging to order, where the damage hides, and how to treat each structure individually.

Why Whiplash Injuries Require a Specialized Doctor

The injuries from whiplash are different from everyday neck pain. Collision forces damage the cervical spine in ways that general practitioners and emergency rooms aren’t trained to identify. Disc herniations hide from standard ER imaging. Soft tissue injuries progress into chronic pain without proper intervention.

A whiplash doctor trained in interventional pain management uses targeted procedures designed for collision injuries. Facet joint injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly to damaged joints. Nerve blocks interrupt pain signals from compressed nerves. Radiofrequency ablation provides long-term relief for chronic whiplash pain that hasn’t responded to conventional treatment.

Understanding Delayed Whiplash Symptoms

Most whiplash patients don’t feel the full impact of their injury immediately. Adrenaline masks pain. Inflammation builds gradually. Soft tissue damage takes time to trigger symptoms.

Common delayed whiplash symptoms include neck stiffness that worsens within days of the accident, headaches originating from the base of the skull, pain radiating into shoulders and upper back, difficulty concentrating, and sleep disruption from inability to find a comfortable position.

If you were in a car accident and these symptoms appeared hours, days, or even weeks later, you likely have whiplash. The delay doesn’t mean the injury is minor. It means you need proper diagnosis and treatment before the damage gets harder to treat.
