With the increase in the number of drivers on the road, the number of auto accident collision are on the rise. While most people use their vehicles for personal use, there is a great number of people using their vehicles to earn extra money, whether it’s transporting passengers, or delivering food, groceries, or packages. Furthermore, increasing road time often leads to an increase in the risk of an auto accident. Depending on the city in which you live, work, and drive, the city may not be designed to accommodate the increase in vehicular traffic flow.
There are many factors that contribute to an increase in the occurrence of motor vehicle accidents, including but not limited to cell phone use while driving; speeding; driving impaired or under the influence; and tailgating. According to research, more than 50% of auto accidents cause injuries to the soft tissues, such as muscle strains, ligaments sprains, skin damage (e.g. burns, ) and contusions. In addition, to injuries such as concussion, fractures, and joint dislocations.
Despite the number of injuries that occur as a result of the auto accident, only a small percentage of auto accident victims seek care after an auto injury. Did you know that chiropractors can help you recover from auto accident injuries? Chiropractors have the education, training, and skills to diagnose, treat, and manage soft tissue injuries. In most states, such as the State of Maryland, chiropractors can administer physiotherapy procedures including but not limited to, using ice and hot application to reduce inflammation and swelling to promote tissue healing and repair; provide rehab exercises and stretches to improve joint strength and stability; as well as advice on lifestyle modifications to ensure injured body regions are not worsened. Watch this video on how I explain the benefits of seeking chiropractic care after sustaining an auto accident injury.
