What causes lasting pain after a Auto Accident?

Asheville Chiropractic Treatment Helps Chronic Pain After Auto Injury

Over 2 million people are hurt every year in motor vehicle collisions in the United States While many people are able to recover from their injuries fairly easily, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Asheville office. Luckily, Dr. Myers is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic Care Helps Prevent Chronic Problems After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 men and women diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. 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 treatment is a great way to avoid chronic pain after an auto injury.

It's important to remember that studies have also found that delaying care after a car crash can negatively affect healing time, so getting in to see Dr. Myers immediately is key to having a quicker recovery.
