Neck Pain & Whiplash

Move Your Neck More Comfortably

Neck pain and stiffness can interfere with work, sleep, exercise, and everyday movement. It can develop gradually from daily habits or occur following an accident or injury.



At Working Body Chiropractic, we provide personalized chiropractic care in Davis, CA, designed around your symptoms, movement, and health goals.

Whiplash can occur when the head and neck move rapidly back and forth, commonly during a motor vehicle accident.


Some people experience neck stiffness, reduced movement, headaches, or muscle discomfort following an injury. Symptoms can also develop after the initial event.


If you've been involved in an accident, appropriate evaluation is important.
