Chiropractic “Only Proven Effective Treatment” for Chronic Whiplash
Studies say 93% of Chronic Whiplash Patients Improved with Chiropractic.
Try chiropractic first. Don’t suffer in chronic pain
This means that 93% of people in chronic pain, from injuries caused by the trauma of an automobile accident, got relief when nothing else worked! That is a really big deal. Nothing else worked. The physica; therapy didn’t work. The opioid narcotic pain medicine and the epidural injections didn’t work. The acupuncture didn’t work. The condition had progressed into being chronic. And yet chiropractic worked almost 100% of the time.
Chronic means long lasting and difficult to eradicate, yet chiropractic worked 93% of the time. Remember this- it could change your life or someone you know!
Whiplash is defined as an injury to the neck and upper back caused by an abrupt jerking motion of the head. It usually jerks in a backwards to forewards motion, often occurring from getting rear ended in an car accidents, falls, and amusement rides.
Chronic whiplash injuries last longer than 6 months
“Nearly one out of 15 adult Americans suffers from the annoying and sometimes debilitating long-term effects of whiplash injury, usually in the form of neck stiffness and pain.” states Dr. Artie Croft, director of the Spine Research Institute. “While chiropractic care in the acute stage can often stave off this unpleasant outcome, two of the studies have shown that even in the chronic stage, chiropractic intervention can provide over 90 percent relief for these sufferers.”
Research reported in 1996 in the Journal Injury state, “93 percent of the patients studied had a statistically significant improvement following chiropractic care. Chiropractic care in this study consisted of spinal manipulation, PNF (Stretching) and ice.”
In a follow-up study published in Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine, “Whiplash injuries are common. Chiropractic is the only proven effective treatment in chronic cases. Our study enables patients to be classified at initial assessment in order to target those patients who will benefit from such treatment.”
Additionally, Croft points to two studies reported in the Journal of Manipulative Physiology and Therapy, 28(1), 3-11 in which authors Giles and Muller state, “For chronic spinal pain in general, when compared to acupuncture and traditional medical approaches, chiropractic has generally be shown to be more effective.”
They happen because people are distracted
The majority of accidents happen within 5 miles from home. So, try to pay close attention once you buckle up. The shorter trips closer to home are the highest for accidents. Try and remember this.
