What causes long-term pain after a motor vehicle accident?

Over 2 million people are hurt each year in car accidents in the U.S. While most people are able to recover from their injuries relatively quickly, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Denton, TX office. Thankfully, Dr. Steve Eustice is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic 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 people diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments 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 care is a great way to avoid chronic pain after an auto injury.

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