What causes neck pain

Most neck pain is mechanical, from posture, muscle strain, poor sleep position, or injury. After a car accident, it is usually whiplash: the head is thrown back and forth, straining the muscles, ligaments, and joints of the neck. Symptoms include stiffness, reduced motion, headaches, and pain into the shoulders.

How a chiropractor helps

After an exam to find the cause, chiropractic care works to restore motion and reduce pain through gentle adjustments, soft-tissue and massage therapy, and targeted strengthening. It also addresses related nerve and back problems, including a pinched nerve in the neck, when they are present.

Neck pain after a crash

Whiplash pain is often delayed a day or two, so it is worth getting checked promptly even if you feel okay at first. In Oregon, your PIP coverage typically covers reasonable and necessary care after a crash.
