Avoiding Chronic Pain After an Auto Injury

Over 2 million people are hurt each year in automobile accidents in the U.S. While most people are able to heal from their injuries relatively easily, many are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Pikesville & Baltimore, MD office. Thankfully, Dr. Robert Stein & Dr. Brian Lerman is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Supports Chiropractic 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 syndrome. 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 care is a great way to avoid chronic pain after an auto injury.

It's important to remember that research has also found that putting off treatment after a car crash can negatively affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Robert Stein & Dr. Brian Lerman as soon as possible is key to having a quicker recovery.
