How Groton Chiropractic and Cox® Technic Can Help After a Motor Vehicle Accident
If you’ve experienced a Groton motor vehicle accident (MVA), it can leave you with serious spine-related pain in the neck or back. Luckily, the Groton chiropractic care with Cox® Technic at Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office can help alleviate your pain. Let’s explore how this form of treatment can help back and/or neck pain sufferers after a motor vehicle accident.
IMPAIRMENT AND RETURNING TO WORK ISSUES AFTER AUTO ACCIDENTS
A recent analysis of published papers on auto accident impairment ratings reported 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 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 lower psychological and financial burdens for both the injured person and the community. (1) In developing guidelines to handle traffic injuries, an expert panel pointed out that injured persons wished to partner with the healthcare team, wanted a better understanding of the healthcare and insurance system sooner after their injury, required support for their emotional distress, and appreciated uncomplicated explanations with easy-to-understand words. (2) For those who were concerned about returning to work, researchers found that those who had higher expectations of returning to work were more likely to do so.

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 Groton patients can be optimistic. Cox Technic is an advanced form of chiropractic care that works to reduce inflammation and alleviate back pain. It is often used in cases of herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, 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 manipulate the spine. This helps to restore mobility, decrease inflammation, and lower pain.
Benefits Of Cox Technic & How Does It Work?
One of the biggest benefits of Cox Technic is that it offers 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 uses his/her hands to apply pressure to specific points on the spine in order to attain the most relief from pain and discomfort. This technique has been effective for helping many types of spinal injuries associated with car accidents such as whiplash and herniated discs which can be extremely painful if not treated properly.
