Neck pain from injury — what causes it
Neck pain following an injury is almost always caused by damage to the soft tissues — muscles, ligaments, tendons — and sometimes to the cervical discs. Auto accidents, workplace incidents, and slip and fall events all produce cervical injuries that cause pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion.
Injury-related neck pain is different from general neck pain — it involves documented trauma and is often accompanied by other symptoms including headaches, shoulder pain, and radiating arm symptoms. Early evaluation and proper documentation is essential.
Chiropractic adjustment
Restores proper cervical joint motion and reduces nerve irritation from injury-related cervical dysfunction and misalignment.
Soft tissue mobilization
Myofascial release and manual therapy to address the muscle spasm and fascial restrictions accompanying cervical injury.
Mechanical traction
Cervical decompression for disc involvement — particularly effective when neck pain includes radiating arm symptoms or disc herniation.
Class 4 laser therapy
Accelerates healing and reduces inflammation in the cervical soft tissue — effective in the acute phase after injury.
