Whiplash

Whiplash or a cervical sprain/strain is caused by a forceful and quick movement of the head and neck in a back-and-forth direction. Common causes of whiplash are car accidents, sporting injuries, and falls.

The results of these injuries can range from hardly noticeable to significantly disabling, and it is important that you have any injury to your neck assessed.

Here at Prairie Life Chiropractic in Sioux Center, IA we have treated a large amount of patients with whiplash injuries. The goal of treatment is to first gently restore normal movement in the affected tissues and later restore the strength and stability of the joints of the cervical spine.

If you’ve been in a car accident, sports injury, or another accident that causes you neck pain, stiffness, or reduced range of motion, give our office a call!
