What causes long-term pain after a Auto Injury?

Lincoln Chiropractic is Great for Chronic Problems After Car Accident

Approximately 2.3 million people are injured every year in motor vehicle collisions in the United States While some people are able to get relief from their injuries relatively easily, many folks are left to deal with chronic issues and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Lincoln office. Luckily, Dr. Jerrad Swanson, DC, FMT, DN1 is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Proves Chiropractic Treatment Helps Prevent Chronic Problems After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. 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 note that research has also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can negatively affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Jerrad Swanson, DC, FMT, DN1 as soon as possible is key to having a quicker recovery.
