How Nashua Chiropractic and Cox® Technic Can Help After a Motor Vehicle Accident

If you’ve experienced a Nashua motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with significant spine-related pain in the neck or back. Luckily, the Nashua chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Moriarty Chiropractic can help alleviate your pain. Read in for more info on how this form of treatment can help those suffering from severe back pain after a car accident.

IMPAIRMENT AND RETURNING TO WORK ISSUES AFTER AUTO ACCIDENTS

A recent review of published papers on auto accident impairment ratings documented a wide range of impairment after an accident - 2% to 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 assessing medical impairment after MVAs to reduce psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and the community. (1) In creating guidelines to oversee the care of traffic injuries, an expert panel pointed out that injured persons wished to partner with their healthcare team, wanted a clearer understanding of the healthcare and insurance system sooner after their injury, needed support for their emotional distress, and appreciated straightforward 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 so.

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 Nashua patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is a well-researched form of chiropractic care that works to decrease inflammation and ease back pain. It is commonly used in cases of herniated discs, bulging 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 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 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 on the spine in order to achieve maximum relief from pain and discomfort. This technique has been effective for treating many types of spinal injuries associated with car accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be very painful if not treated appropriately.
