Causes of Chronic Pain after Auto Injuries

North County St. Louis, MO neck pain and headache treatmentOver 2 million people are injured each year in auto accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to recover from their injuries relatively easily, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our North County St. Louis, MO office. Thankfully, Dr. Mark Holland is here to help you heal 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 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic treatment 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 is a great way to avoid chronic pain after a crash.

It's important to remember that studies have also found that putting off care after a car crash can adversely affect healing time, so getting in to see Dr. Mark Holland as soon as possible is key to having a quicker recovery.
