We Offer Professional Physical Therapy for All Types of Injuries

When it comes to professional physical therapy, it’s imperative that you work with an experienced and highly trained expert. As physical therapy and injury specialists, our team of therapists helps patients with all types of complaints. Whether an auto injury or work injury, we provide services that yield positive results. That means if someone suffers from car crash pain or has a work comp complaint, we’re here to improve the patient’s quality of life.

As part of our physical therapy services for injuries, our therapists determine the appropriate treatment on a patient-by-patient basis. Since everyone is different, we look at every injury individually and devise the right treatment accordingly. At Accelerated Rehab, we take physical therapy seriously. We want people who visit our clinics with injuries to recover quickly.

We Provide Physical Therapy for a Repetitive Strain Injury

Our licensed therapists also provide physical therapy for a repetitive strain injury. Following are some examples of what that entails.

• Physical Therapy for Knee Injuries – Runners often have this type of repetitive strain injury because it takes a toll on the knees. Based on the specific location of the knee and type of pain involved, a therapist creates a viable physical therapy treatment. Exercises such as short arc quads, lower extremity stretches, and hip-strengthening are possibilities.
• Physical Therapy for Back Injuries – Whether from participating in sports or an on-the-job injury, back pain is another type of repetitive strain injury. In this case, the therapist would use either passive or active physical therapy or a combination of the two. Passive therapy consists of ice packs, electrical stimulation, and the application of heat, whereas active therapy is more about stretching and exercises.
• Physical Therapy for Ankle Injuries – These injuries are both recreational and work-related. Through a series of exercises, patients regain both flexibility and range of motion.

Physical Therapy for Shoulder Injuries

At Accelerated Rehab, we offer physical therapy for shoulder injuries as well. One example is physical therapy for a brachial plexus injury. This particular part of the shoulder consists of a network of nerves that sends signals going from the spinal cord to the shoulder, as well as, the arm and hand. With a brachial plexus injury, the nerves become either compressed or stretched. In the worst cases, the nerves tear away from the spine.

With physical therapy, we can alleviate a patient’s pain and improve the connection of nerves to the spinal cord. The treatment keeps the muscles and joints working properly. As a result, patients maintain range of motion, thereby preventing stiffness.

Whether an individual needs help with a workman’s comp injury or lives with pain due to an auto accident, we can help. For more information on the various therapies we offer, contact us at Accelerated Rehab.
