Napa Chiropractic Therapy Relieves Chronic Pain After Car Accidents
Over 2 million people are injured every year in motor vehicle collisions in the U.S. While a lot of people are able to recover from their injuries relatively quickly, others are left to deal with chronic problems and disability. We see several of these men and women here in our Napa office. Thankfully, Dr. Bettencourt is here to help you get relief from your auto injury.
Research Supports Chiropractic Care 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 people diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments and 93 percent of them found relief following their adjustments, even though 43% of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic adjustments is a great way to avoid long-term 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 recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Bettencourt immediately is key to having a quicker recovery.
