The duration of chiropractic care following a vehicular incident is highly individualized and contingent upon the nature and severity of the injuries sustained. A specific timetable for treatment cannot be universally applied, as recovery trajectories vary considerably between patients.
Commencing chiropractic interventions shortly after an accident can potentially mitigate long-term complications and promote optimal healing. Early intervention allows for the addressing of misalignments and soft tissue injuries before they become chronic conditions. The historical application of spinal manipulation for pain relief supports the rationale for this approach.
