What causes long-term pain after a car wreck?

Approximately 2.3 million people are injured each year in automobile accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to heal from their injuries relatively easily, many are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Estero, Bonita Springs office. Fortunately, Dr. Green is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Proves 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 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash pain. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments and 93 percent of them found 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 a crash.

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