Why Physical Therapy after an Accident?
At Mercy Outpatient Rehab Clinic, our therapists will perform a thorough examination of your injuries after your accident. This will help us determine the best course of treatment and therapies for your injury. We gather information about your medical history, the type and severity of the accident, and other types of treatment you are receiving in conjunction with your physical therapy to determine what treatments, exercises, and modalities will be most helpful with your healing.
- Acute treatment may include manual therapies (which may include manipulations, strain-counterstrain, or other hands-on techniques), light pumping exercises, and/or microcurrent.
- Long term treatment may include manual therapies and/or specific strengthening exercises to decrease long term discomfort.
- Studies have shown that physical therapy is effective in treating whiplash injuries because it prescribes active treatment which includes physical therapy evaluation, posture control, neck rotation and pumping exercises, strengthening exercises, and other treatments depending on the needs of the patient. For best treatment results, active care ideally begins within 96 hours of the accident.
- Whether your injuries are joint, muscle, neurological, whiplash or vestibular-ocular we are prepared to treat you quickly and efficiently.
