Avoiding Chronic Pain After an Auto Injury

Over 2 million people are injured every year in automobile accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to recover from their injuries relatively easily, many folks are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our North County, St. Louis, MO office. Fortunately, Dr. Mark Holland is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was conducted on 28 people diagnosed with chronic whiplash pain. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments and 93 percent of them experienced pain relief 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 chronic pain after a crash.

It's important to note that research has also found that delaying treatment after a car crash can negatively affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Mark Holland at the earliest opportunity is key to having a speedier recovery.

Dr. Mark Holland has helped many auto injury sufferers, and we're here to help you, too. Call our North County, St. Louis, MO office today for more information or an appointment.
