Avoiding Chronic Pain After Car Crash

More than 2 million people are injured each year in car accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to recover from their injuries relatively easily, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see several of these men and women here in our Parkland office. Luckily, Dr. Scharf is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Proves Chiropractic Treatment Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Car Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 men and women diagnosed with chronic whiplash issues. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments and 93% of them experienced improvements following their adjustments, even though 43% of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic therapy is a great way to avoid chronic problems after an auto accident.

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