Causes of Chronic Pain after a Car Crash

North County St. Louis, MO neck pain and headache treatmentApproximately 2.3 million people are injured each year in car accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to heal from their injuries fairly easily, others are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our North County St. Louis, MO office. Fortunately, Dr. Mark Holland is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Shows Chiropractic Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was conducted on 28 men and women diagnosed with chronic whiplash pain. Each participant received chiropractic care and 93 percent of them experienced pain relief following their adjustments, even though 43 percent of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic is a great way to avoid long-term pain after a crash.

It's important to note that studies have also found that delaying care after a car crash can negatively affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Mark Holland at the earliest opportunity is key to having a speedier recovery.
