Chronic Pain, Car Crashes, and Chiropractic

Harrisburg auto injury recoveryOver 2 million people are hurt every year in car accidents in the U.S. While most people are able to recover from their injuries fairly quickly, many folks are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Harrisburg office. Fortunately, Dr. Blake is here to help you recover 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 carried out 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 care is a great way to avoid chronic pain after an auto injury.

It's important to remember that studies have also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can adversely affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Blake immediately is key to having a speedier recovery.
