Over 2 million people are injured each year in motor vehicle collisions in the U.S. While most people are able to heal from their injuries fairly easily, many are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Harleysville, PA office. Thankfully, Dr. Szilagyi is here to help you heal from your auto injury.
Research Shows 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 pain. Each participant received chiropractic treatment 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 note that studies have also found that putting off care after a car crash can negatively affect healing time, so getting in to see Dr. Szilagyi as soon as possible is key to having a speedier recovery.
