Causes of Chronic Pain after Car Crashes

Approximately 2.3 million people are injured each year in auto accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to improve from their injuries relatively easily, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Prescott office. Fortunately, Weary Chiropractic Clinic is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports 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 men and women 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 long-term pain after a crash.

It's important to note that studies have also found that delaying care after a car crash can adversely affect recovery time, so getting in to see Weary Chiropractic Clinic immediately is key to having a speedier recovery.
