Injuries are common in boxing, occurring most often to the head, neck, face, and hands. Traumatic minor cervical strains are common place in high-impact sports and premature degenerative changes have been documented in sports people exposed to recurrent impact trauma or repetitive forces. Whiplash injury may result in extensive trauma to muscles and ligamentous structures within the cervical spine . Many of these structures, particularly the muscles, contain mechanoreceptors that play a key role in position sense. Studies have shown that head and neck position sense may become impaired following whiplash injury. Subsequently, poor movement patterns, together with the perpetuation of pain and other symptoms may develop.
