Causes of Chronic Pain after Car Crash

Nashville Chiropractic Treatment Helps Chronic Pain After Car Accident

More than 2 million people are hurt each year in car accidents in the U.S. While several people are able to improve from their injuries relatively easily, many folks are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Nashville office. Luckily, Sweeney Chiropractic is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

Research Shows Chiropractic Therapy Helps Prevent Chronic Pain 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 found relief following their adjustments, even though 43% of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic care 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 adversely affect healing time, so getting in to see Sweeney Chiropractic at the earliest opportunity is key to having a quicker recovery.
