Chiropractic Therapy Helps Relieve Back Pain After Car Crashes

Back Pain is a common symptom after a car crash and it's something that Dr. Dennis sees frequently in our West Palm Beach office.

Back Pain After an Auto Collision

Why is back pain such a common condition after an auto collision? How can chiropractic care help you recover?

Let's look at the root cause of back pain after an auto injury and see how your chiropractor can help.

During a rear-end car crash, your car and car seat are quickly accelerated forward against your torso. Since car seats don't perfectly align with the curve of your spinal column, the car seat can put inconsistent pressure on your back. This can cause some of your spinal vertebrae to move in one direction while an adjacent vertebrae might move in another direction. This differential movement can sprain or strain the tissues that hold your spine together. These types of injuries can cause chronic back pain if not treated promptly. Fortunately, chiropractic is one of the most effective ways to treat back pain.
