The reason individuals like yourself choose chiropractic care for treatment of injuries sustained in MVAs is simple – chiropractic care is exceptional in the treatment of soft tissue injuries, especially of the spine. Since the most common injuries associated with MVAs are sprains and strains of the spinal muscles and ligaments, it’s only natural that chiropractic care would be the treatment of choice.
Many studies have also found individuals injured in MVAs prefer chiropractic care for the treatment of their injuries. One such study evaluated 190 whiplash injury victims and found those who received chiropractic care reported treatment satisfaction of 100%.
