Causes of Chronic Pain after Car Accident

Rochester Hills Chiropractic Supports Chronic Pain After Car Crash

More than 2 million people are injured every year in motor vehicle collisions in the U.S. While many people are able to recover from their injuries relatively easily, others are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Rochester Hills office. Fortunately, Dr. Dalton is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Proves Chiropractic Care Helps Prevent Chronic Issues 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 treatment and 93% of them experienced improvements following their adjustments, even though 43 percent of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic therapy is a great way to avoid chronic pain after a car wreck.

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

    Chiropractors, often considered alternative or complementary medicine practitioners, are primary care doctors who focus on good health through proper nutrition, exercise, and other lifestyle factors. The chiropractic philosophy is based on the idea that when nerves emerging from the spinal cord are compromised (known as a subluxation), the affected individual might experience pain, disability and an overall decrease in the quality of life.
