Default Is two steps forward, one step back normal for PCS recovery?

Hi all,

I was in a car accident (rear ended by large work truck doing 40 mph, pushed into SUV in front of me - my car totaled) back in June of 2014. I was whisked away by ambo to the ER, and eventually diagnosed with whiplash, concussion and PCS. After several months of PT, I felt better and most of my symptoms were gone or minimal. I got cleared to start slowly exercising again, so I did what they recommended. After two or so weeks of that, I started having symptoms again, especially the headaches, neck, shoulder and back pain. Back to PT. Not much relief this time. Chiropractic and cold laser therapy was suggested by a friend, so I started that. It's helping, but the headaches and neck/back pain are persistent. It's been almost 7 months since the accident. Is this relapse normal?

Also, has anyone here had success with chiro or cold laser therapy? I just want to feel normal again, and be out of pain most, if not all, of the time...
