How Chiropractic Can Help You Avoid Chronic Auto Injury Pain

Over 2 million people are hurt each year in auto accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to heal from their injuries fairly easily, too many people are left to deal with chronic pain and impairment. We see many of these patients here in our Beaverton, OR office. Fortunately, Christopher Hugon is here to help you recover from your auto injury.

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was conducted on 28 men and women diagnosed with chronic whiplash pain. Each participant received chiropractic treatment and 93 percent of them experienced improvements following their adjustments, even though 43 percent of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic care is a great way to avoid long-term pain after a crash.

It's important to note that research has also found that delaying treatment after a car crash can adversely affect recovery time, so getting in to see Dr. Christopher Hugon at the earliest opportunity is key to having a speedier recovery.

Dr. Christopher Hugon has worked with many auto injury patients, and we're here to help you, too. Call our Beaverton, OR office today for more information or an appointment.
