How Manchester Chiropractic and Cox® Technic Can Help After a Motor Vehicle Accident
If you’ve experienced a Manchester motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with significant spine-related pain in the neck or back. Luckily, the Manchester chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries can help alleviate your pain. Let’s explore how this form of treatment can help back and/or neck pain sufferers after a car accident.
IMPAIRMENT AND RETURNING TO WORK ISSUES AFTER AUTO ACCIDENTS
A recent review of published papers on auto accident impairment ratings reported a wide range of ratings after an accident - 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 assessing medical impairment after accidents to decrease 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 wished to partner with their healthcare team, desired a better understanding of the healthcare and insurance system sooner after their injury, required support for their emotional distress, and valued straightforward explanations with easy-to-understand words. (2) For those who worried about returning to work, researchers found that those who held higher expectations of returning to work were more likely to do that.

GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR MVA PAIN RELIEF
Undergoing gentle chiropractic care including Cox® Technic as part of the treatment plan for post-auto accident spine injury, our Manchester patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is a well-researched form of chiropractic care that works to lower inflammation and reduce back pain. It is often used in cases of herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, facet syndrome, degenerative disc disease, post-surgical low back or neck pain, and other forms of chronic lower back or neck pain. The technique works 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 using drugs or undergo surgery. During a session, the patient lies down on their stomach (or other modified position for comfort) while the chiropractor places his/her/hands on the spine to put pressure to specific 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 related to motor vehicle accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be extremely painful if not treated well.
