If you’ve experienced a Richmond motor vehicle
accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious spine-related
pain in the neck or back. Fortunately,
the Richmond chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Johnson Chiropractic
can help ease your auto accident pain. Read in for more info on how this form of treatment can help those
suffering from severe back pain after a motor vehicle
accident.
IMPAIRMENT AND RETURNING TO WORK ISSUES AFTER AUTO ACCIDENTS
A recent review of published papers on auto
accident impairment ratings brought to
light a wide range of impairment 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 permanent
injury status. This led the authors to suggest
the development of a global way of assessing medical
impairment after MVAs to lower
psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and his/her
community. (1) In creating guidelines to handle traffic injuries, an expert panel pointed out
that injured persons wanted to partner with their
healthcare team, desired a clearer understanding of the
healthcare and insurance system earlier after their injury, needed
support for their emotional distress, and valued uncomplicated
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. (3) Johnson Chiropractic encourages you to be optimistic and welcomes you as a part of the team for healing!!
GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR MVA PAIN RELIEF
Undergoing gentle
chiropractic care including Cox® Technic as part of the treatment plan for
post-auto accident spine injury, our Richmond patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is an advanced
form of chiropractic care that works to lower
inflammation and alleviate back pain. It is often
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 produces
results by using gentle yet firm pressure to
manipulate the spine. This helps to restore mobility, decrease
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 using
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 apply pressure
to specific points along the spine in order to achieve
the most relief from pain and discomfort. This technique has been
effective for treating many types of spinal injuries associated
with motor vehicle accidents
such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be quite
painful if not treated well.
