Avoiding Chronic Pain After Auto Injury

Asheville Chiropractic Treatment Helps Chronic Pain After Auto Accident

More than 2 million people are hurt each year in auto accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to heal from their injuries relatively easily, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see several of these men and women here in our Asheville office. Thankfully, Dr. Myers is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic Care Helps Prevent Chronic Discomfort After an Car Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 people diagnosed with chronic whiplash pain. Each participant received chiropractic care and 93% of them experienced pain relief following their adjustments, even though 43 percent of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic treatment is a great way to avoid chronic issues after an auto accident.

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