Understanding Soft Tissue Injury Treatment
Soft tissue encompasses the connective and supportive tissues surrounding bones, organs, and other structures in the body, including muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia, nerves, blood vessels, and synovial membranes. These tissues are highly susceptible to injury from strains or blunt force, both of which are common in car accidents. Damage to soft tissues from blows, pulling, bending, or tearing can result in pain, swelling, bruising, and potentially severe injuries.
Even if a physician clears you of serious injuries after an accident, undiagnosed soft tissue injuries could still compromise your health. Proper treatment is crucial to support healing and restore functionality
- Chiropractic Adjustments: Gentle realignment of bodily tissues to relieve pressure, reduce pain, and restore balance after injury.
- Physiotherapy: Hands-on therapy combined with movement exercises to aid the recovery of muscles, ligaments, and soft tissues.
- Electrical Muscle Stimulation: Gentle electrical impulses are used to stimulate and strengthen muscles, enhancing recovery.
- Ultrasound Therapy: Sound waves penetrate deep into soft tissues to promote cell regeneration and accelerate healing.
- Massage Therapy: Relaxation and healing through muscle relaxation, pain reduction, and improved blood flow.
