Causes of Chronic Pain after Car Accident

Over 2 million people are hurt each year in auto accidents in the United States While many people are able to improve from their injuries relatively quickly, many folks are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Springfield office. Fortunately, Dr. Delson is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic Care 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 pain. Each participant received chiropractic treatment and 93% of them experienced improvements 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 chronic pain after a car wreck.

It's important to note that research has also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can adversely affect healing time, so getting in to see Dr. Delson immediately is key to having a speedier recovery.
