Parkland Chiropractic Therapy Helps Chronic Pain After Car Accidents
Approximately 2.3 million people are hurt every year in car crashes in the U.S. While some people are able to heal from their injuries fairly easily, many folks are left to deal with chronic issues and impairment. We see many of these men and women here in our Parkland office. Thankfully, Dr. Scharf is here to help you heal from your auto injury.
Research Shows Chiropractic Therapy Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Car Crash
The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic care 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 care is a great way to avoid long-term discomfort after an auto injury.
It's important to remember that research has also found that delaying care after a car crash can adversely affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Scharf immediately is key to having a speedier recovery.
