How Carrolltown Chiropractic and Cox® Technic Can Help After a Motor Vehicle Accident
If you’ve experienced a Carrolltown motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious back and/or neck pain due to a spine injury. Luckily, the Carrolltown chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation can help ease your pain. Read in for more info on 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 analysis of published papers on auto accident impairment ratings described a wide range of impairment after a MVA - 2% - 23% for car occupants and 2.8% [-|to]9] 46% for cyclists – with cervical spine and neck injuries being the biggest risks for permanent injury status. This led the authors to suggest the development of a global way of evaluating medical impairment after accidents to lower psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and the community. (1) In developing guidelines to oversee the care of traffic injuries, an expert panel pointed out that injured persons wanted to partner with the healthcare team, desired a better understanding of the healthcare and insurance system sooner after their injury, needed support for their emotional distress, and appreciated simple explanations with easy-to-understand words. (2) For those who worried about returning to work, researchers found that those who held higher expectations of returning to work were more likely to do that.

GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR MVA PAIN RELIEF
With our use of gentle chiropractic care including Cox® Technic as part of the treatment plan for post-auto accident spine injury, our Carrolltown patients have reason to be optimistic. Cox Technic is a well-researched form of chiropractic care that works to reduce inflammation and reduce back pain. It is commonly used in cases of bulging and herniated discs, sciatica, facet syndrome, degenerative disc disease, persistent low back or neck pain after back surgery, and other forms of chronic lower back or neck pain. The technique works by delivering 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 places his/her/hands on the spine to put pressure to specific points along 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 auto accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be very painful if not treated well.
