If you’ve experienced a Carrolltown motor vehicle
accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious spine-related
pain in the neck or back. Fortunately,
the Carrolltown chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation
can help ease your auto accident pain. Let’s
explore how this form of treatment can help back and/or neck pain sufferers after an auto
accident.
IMPAIRMENT AND RETURNING TO WORK ISSUES AFTER AUTO ACCIDENTS
A recent review of published papers on auto
accident impairment ratings found a wide range of ratings after an accident
- 2% to 23% for car occupants and 2.8% to 46% for cyclists – with
cervical spine and neck injuries being the greatest risks for being permanently injured. This led the authors to suggest
the development of a global way of evaluating medical
impairment after accidents to reduce
psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and the
community. (1) In creating guidelines to handle traffic injuries, an expert panel found
that injured persons wished to partner with their
healthcare team, desired a better understanding of the
healthcare and insurance system sooner after their injury, needed
support for their emotional distress, and appreciated uncomplicated
explanations with easy-to-understand words. (2) For those who were
concerned about returning to work, researchers found that those who
held higher expectations of returning to work were more likely to
do that. (3) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation encourages you to be optimistic and invites you to be a part of the team for healing!!
GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR MVA PAIN RELIEF
By our use of gentle
chiropractic care including Cox® Technic as part of the treatment plan for
post-auto accident spine injury, our Carrolltown patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is an advanced
form of chiropractic care that works to decrease
inflammation and alleviate back pain. It is commonly
used in cases of herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, facet syndrome, degenerative disc disease, post-surgical low back or neck pain,
and other forms of chronic lower back or neck pain. The technique works by using gentle yet firm pressure to
treat the spine. This helps to restore mobility, reduce
inflammation, and lower pain.
Benefits Of Cox Technic & How Does It Work?
One of the biggest benefits of Cox Technic is that it delibers
relief from chronic lower back or neck pain without having to use
drugs or undergo surgery. During a session, the patient lies down on their
stomach (or other modified position for comfort) while the chiropractor uses his/her hands to apply pressure
to certain points on the spine in order to attain
maximum relief from pain and discomfort. This technique has been
effective for helping many types of spinal injuries related to car accidents
such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be quite
painful if not treated appropriately.
