If you’ve experienced a La Grande motor vehicle
accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious back and/or neck pain due to a spine injury. Luckily,
the La Grande chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC
can help ease your auto accident pain. Let’s
explore how this form of treatment can help those
suffering from severe back pain after a car
accident.
IMPAIRMENT AND RETURNING TO WORK ISSUES AFTER AUTO ACCIDENTS
A recent analysis of published papers on auto
accident impairment ratings found a wide range of ratings after a MVA
- 2% to 23% for car occupants and 2.8% to 46% for cyclists – with
cervical spine and neck injuries being the greatest risks for permanent
injury status. This led the authors to call for a global way of evaluating medical
impairment after MVAs to lower
psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and his/her
community. (1) In developing guidelines to oversee the
care of traffic injuries, an expert panel found
that injured persons wanted to partner with the
healthcare team, desired a clearer understanding of the
healthcare and insurance system earlier after their injury, required
support for their emotional distress, and appreciated simple
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 so. (3) Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC encourages you to be optimistic and welcomes you as a part of the team for healing!!
GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR MVA PAIN RELIEF
With our use of gentle
chiropractic care including Cox® Technic as part of the treatment plan for
post-auto accident spine injury, our La Grande patients have
reason to be optimistic. Cox Technic is an advanced
form of chiropractic care that works to reduce
inflammation and reduce back pain. It is commonly
used in cases of herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatic
leg pain, facet syndrome, degenerative disc disease, post-surgical low back or neck pain,
and other types of chronic lower back or neck pain. The technique works by delivering gentle yet firm pressure to
treat the spine. This helps to restore mobility, reduce
inflammation, and lower 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 specific 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 car accidents
such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be very
painful if not treated properly.
