Chiropractic Whiplash Treatment After A Car Accident In Texarkana

Researchers are proving what doctors of chiropractic and their patients have known for over 100 years.

Chiropractic help improve healing from an injury by allowing the body to function properly. Chiropractic is excellent care for most injuries people experience from an accident.

It just makes sense to visit a Chiropractor after a wreck and as soon as possible to minimize the effects of poor healing to the delicate soft tissues that are so commonly injured.

Let’s look at a few of the reasons why and some evidence that was published by 2 Medical Orthopedists and a Chiropractor.

Car Accidents!

Collisions generate serious forces that damage even the heavy metal vehicles involved.

Worse these forces are transferred to the people in the vehicles.

The sudden violent movements can tear and compress the soft tissues that hold our bones together.

Spinal regions are particularly susceptible because of their position in the vehicle, the relative large and heavy head that is thrown about on the much smaller neck, and even the way the seat belts restrict parts of our bodies (not the head and neck).

Doctors of chiropractic are exceptionally well qualified to help restore spines that have been traumatized this way because of Chiropractic’s unique treatment methods focusing on physical treatments, lifestyle and ergonomic advice to help you recover.

Without proper care, victims injured in accidents often get much worse and eventually experience serious problems with pain, arthritis, and other disabilities that can interfere with daily activities at home, work, and play.

Scientific research supports the value of chiropractic even after medical doctors and physical therapists have failed to provide relief.

93% of patients with chronic whiplash pain who have failed with medical and physical therapy care improve with chiropractic adjustments according to a study published in the Journal, Injury.

Chiropractic treatment of chronic ‘whiplash’ injuries.

Injury. 1996 Nov;27(9):643-5. Woodward MN1, Cook JC, Gargan MF, Bannister GC.

According to the study of chronic whiplash sufferers,

• 43% of patients injured in a motor vehicle collision suffer long term symptoms from their ‘whiplash’ injury.
• No conventional treatment (medical and physical therapy) has proven to be effective.
• A retrospective study was undertaken to determine the effects of chiropractic in a group patients with chronic ‘whiplash‘ syndrome. 93% of these chronic patients improved following chiropractic treatment.
• *It should be noted that chronic pain and injury patients are considered to be much more resistant to treatment than acute or recent ones. This looked at chronic whiplash patients!
