Avoiding Chronic Pain After Car Accident

Approximately 2.3 million people are injured each year in automobile accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to get relief from their injuries fairly quickly, too many people are left to deal with chronic issues and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Harrisburg office. Fortunately, Blake Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic Treatment Helps Prevent Chronic Discomfort 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 found relief following their adjustments, even though 43% of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic therapy is a great way to avoid chronic problems after a car accident.

It's important to note that studies have also found that putting off care after a car crash can adversely affect healing time, so getting in to see Blake Chiropractic & Rehabilitation at the earliest opportunity is key to having a quicker recovery.
