Approximately 2.3 million people are hurt every year in car accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to recover from their injuries relatively quickly, others are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Redondo Beach office. Fortunately, Dr. Kaden is here to help you recover 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 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic care 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 is a great way to avoid chronic pain after a crash.
It’s important to remember that research has also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can negatively affect healing time, so getting in to see Dr. Kaden at the earliest opportunity is key to having a quicker recovery.
