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

January 17, 2023

If you’ve experienced a Augusta motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious back and/or neck pain due to a spine injury. Luckily, the Augusta chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic can help ease your pain. Let’s explore 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 being permanently injured. This led the authors to suggest the development of a global way of assessing medical impairment after accidents to reduce psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and the community. (1) In developing guidelines to handle 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 valued uncomplicated explanations with easy-to-understand words. (2) For those who worried about returning to work, researchers found that those with higher expectations of returning to work were more likely to do that. (3) Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic encourages you to be optimistic!

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 Augusta patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is a well-researched form of chiropractic care that works to lower inflammation and ease back pain. It is commonly used in cases of herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, facet syndrome, degenerative disc disease, post-surgical low back or neck pain, and other forms of chronic lower back or neck pain. The technique produces results by using gentle yet firm pressure to treat the spine. This helps to restore mobility, decrease inflammation, and ease 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 uses his/her hands to apply pressure to certain 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 related to auto accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be very painful if not treated properly.
