What causes persistent pain after a Car Accident?

Harrisburg Chiropractic Therapy Helps Chronic Pain After Auto Injury

Approximately 2.3 million people are hurt each year in motor vehicle collisions in the United States While most people are able to recover from their injuries relatively quickly, others are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Harrisburg office. Luckily, Blake Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Shows Chiropractic Therapy Helps Prevent Chronic Problems 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 pain relief following their adjustments, even though 43% of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic care is a great way to avoid long-term pain after a crash.

It's important to remember that research has also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can negatively affect healing time, so getting in to see Blake Chiropractic & Rehabilitation immediately is key to having a speedier recovery.
