Causes of Chronic Pain after Car Crashes

Over 2 million people are injured every year in motor vehicle collisions in the U.S. While most people are able to heal from their injuries fairly easily, many are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Texarkana office. Thankfully, Back Pain Chiropractic is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Proves Chiropractic Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was conducted on 28 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments and 93 percent of them experienced improvements following their adjustments, even though 43 percent of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic is a great way to avoid long-term pain after a crash.

It's important to remember that research has also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can negatively affect recovery time, so getting in to see Back Pain Chiropractic immediately is key to having a speedier recovery.
