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

January 17, 2023

If you’ve experienced a Fort Wayne motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with significant spine-related pain in the neck or back. Fortunately, the Fort Wayne chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc can help ease your pain. Read in for more info on how this form of treatment can help back and/or neck pain sufferers 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 described a wide range of impairment after a MVA - 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 evaluating medical impairment after MVAs to decrease psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and the community. (1) In developing guidelines to handle traffic injuries, an expert panel found that injured persons wished to partner with their healthcare team, desired a better understanding of the healthcare and insurance system earlier 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 had higher expectations of returning to work were more likely to do that. (3) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc 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 Fort Wayne patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is a well-researched form of chiropractic care that works to reduce inflammation and reduce back pain. It is often used in cases of bulging and herniated discs, sciatic leg pain, 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 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 put pressure to certain points on the spine in order to achieve the most relief from pain and discomfort. This technique has been effective for helping many types of spinal injuries related to motor vehicle accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be extremely painful if not treated appropriately.
