What causes persistent pain after a Car Crash?

Lynnwood Chiropractic Treatment Helps Chronic Pain After Auto Accident

More than 2 million people are injured every year in car accidents in the U.S. While many people are able to improve from their injuries relatively quickly, others are left to deal with chronic issues and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Lynnwood office. Fortunately, Lifeplus Health Centers 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 conducted on 28 people 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 treatment is a great way to avoid chronic pain after an auto injury.

It's important to note that research has also found that delaying treatment after a car crash can negatively affect healing time, so getting in to see Lifeplus Health Centers at the earliest opportunity is key to having a quicker recovery.
