What causes lasting pain after a Auto Injury?

Over 2 million people are hurt every year in auto accidents in the U.S. While a lot of people are able to heal from their injuries relatively easily, others are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Alpharetta office. Luckily, Dr. Berklich is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Proves Chiropractic Adjustments Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was conducted on 28 individuals diagnosed with chronic whiplash pain. Each participant received chiropractic adjustments and 93% of them experienced pain 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 a car wreck.

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