Chiropractic care consists of two groups: manipulations and modalities. Manipulation helps to reduce pain and regain mobility. Modalities are procedures that help make it easier to adjust your joints.
Massage therapy is another great therapy to consider after an auto accident. First, massage can be a great way to loosen muscles before a chiropractic manipulation or other types of therapies.
Therapeutic exercises are the systematic and planned performance of body movements or exercises which aim to enhance and restore physical function, flexibility, strength and endurance.
This technique helps relieve pain. Manual Therapy is also referred to as hands-on physiotherapy, because manual therapy uses no devices or machines. In general, it includes soft tissue work and mobilization.
When the vibrations are transmitted to your body, they cause your muscles to contract and relax. Using low-frequency vibration, this modality helps relax compressed tissues and restore their functionality.
Spinal traction is a non-surgical way to relieve pain and correct many back conditions. Mechanical traction is a form of decompression therapy that relieves pressure on the spine.
Ultrasound is an effective way to treat swelling of muscles, joints, and ligaments. It is most commonly used to solve problems in muscle tissue. The ultrasound helps heal muscle pain and reduces inflammation.
Thermotherapy and Cryotherapy are used in various physical rehabilitation treatments. Heat increases the blood flow and decreases joint stiffness. Cold reduces inflammation and nerve activity.

Car accidents are no joke, and they can cause serious injury. You need the best possible medical care right away. At Memorial Medical Center we are specialists in Car Accident Injury Rehabilitation. Our therapists are musculoskeletal experts, highly qualified to treat any and all injuries you may have sustained in a car accident.
The goal of physical rehabilitation is to help you repair and strengthen damaged muscles and tissues. During your appointment, the therapist will test your strength and range of motion, and perform special tests to get a full picture of your injuries and develop a treatment plan.
If you've been in a car accident, you may wonder why physical rehabilitation is necessary. Following a car accident, physical rehabilitation can help reduce pain, speed recovery, improve range of motion, and reduce your risk of further injury.
Prompt treatment for car accident injuries is important to minimize the potential for future chronic pain conditions.
