Avoiding Chronic Pain After Car Crash

Arlington Chiropractic Therapy is Great for Chronic Problems After Car Accident

Over 2 million people are injured every year in car accidents in the U.S. While most people are able to get relief from their injuries relatively quickly, many are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see several of these people here in our Arlington office. Fortunately, Dr. Ernst is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic Care Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 people diagnosed with chronic whiplash issues. Each participant received chiropractic treatment 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 adjustments is a great way to avoid chronic discomfort after an auto accident.

It's important to see that research has also found that putting off care after a car crash can negatively affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Ernst at the earliest opportunity is key to having a quicker recovery.
