Neck Pain

Vegas Valley Chiropractic offers treatment for many different forms of neck pain. Some common presentations of neck pain include:

Stiff neck

Most neck pain is caused by improper posture such as an incorrect sleeping position or hunching over at a computer desk for hours on end. Neck pain becomes serious when it affects your day-to-day activities like rotating your head over your shoulder or sleeping. When neck pain affects your life, it can be caused by a misalignment in your spine that puts excessive pressure on the surrounding muscles, nerves, and ligaments. A chiropractor can provide treatment for your stiff neck symptoms.

Whiplash

Whiplash is caused by an injury to the neck when the head moves forward and backward in a rapid motion that ends up placing strain on the surrounding muscles and ligaments and usually occurs in a motor vehicle accident. Symptoms of whiplash include:

Neck pain caused by whiplash can become chronic if left untreated. Dr. Mirna Gamboa can help to diagnose and handle the problem. Visiting a chiropractor allows your spine to gently become realigned to its proper position, ultimately easing your pain.
