North County St. Louis, MO Chiropractic Treatment Helps Chronic Pain After Auto Injury
Over 2 million people are hurt each year in car accidents in the United States While many people are able to get relief from their injuries relatively quickly, many folks are left to deal with chronic issues and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our North County St. Louis, MO office. Fortunately, Dr. Holland is here to help you heal from your auto injury.
Research Proves Chiropractic Treatment 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 pain. 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 care is a great way to avoid long-term pain after a car wreck.
It's important to note that studies have also found that delaying treatment after a car crash can adversely affect healing time, so getting in to see Dr. Holland at the earliest opportunity is key to having a quicker recovery.
