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

January 17, 2023

If you’ve experienced a Tonawanda motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious back and/or neck pain due to a spine injury. Fortunately, the Tonawanda chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation can help alleviate 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 review 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 greatest risks for permanent injury status. This led the authors to suggest the development of a global way of evaluating medical impairment after accidents to lower 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 found that injured persons wanted to partner with their healthcare team, wanted a clearer understanding of the healthcare and insurance system earlier after their injury, required support for their emotional distress, and valued uncomplicated 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 Tonawanda patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is an advanced form of chiropractic care that works to decrease inflammation and reduce back pain. It is commonly used in cases of herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatic leg pain, facet syndrome, degenerative disc disease, persistent low back or neck pain after back surgery, and other types 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, reduce 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 attain maximum relief from pain and discomfort. This technique has been effective for helping many types of spinal injuries associated with motor vehicle accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be quite painful if not treated appropriately.
