If you’ve ever been in a motor vehicle accident, you know that healing can be a slow, frustrating process. Often it’s hard to tell what the problem is, or where to go for help. Here are some common treatment options if you have experienced personal injury:
What is chiropractic care?
Therapies commonly used by chiropractors help treat lower back pain, neck pain, and headaches, as well as whiplash and other injuries suffered as a result of an accident.
Chiropractors typically manipulate the spine and other joints, as well as soft tissues, and a chiropractor can also help suggest exercises and other kinds of counselling to help you regain mobility and enjoy a better quality of life following an accident.
How about physiotherapy?
Physiotherapists are often referred to as ‘movement specialists’ – they help you regain strength and mobility after an auto accident, for example, and they do this through natural methods such as exercise, motivation, adapted equipment and education.
Can massage therapy help recover from personal injury?
Massage Therapy is considered to be an effective approach to pain management and rehabilitation, and can provide relief and recovery following an auto accident. Many people like massage therapy because of its low-tech, drug-free, “hands-on” approach, and because the treatment can help with conditions related to soft tissue, nerve and joint dysfunction
Shockwave therapy
Shockwave Therapy is a non-surgical treatment of soft tissue, bone, and joint pain, where high-energy pulses stimulate the breakdown of scar tissue in the targeted area in order to improving blood circulation and help reduce inflammation. The treatment helps treat tissue, bone and joint pain.
