Experiencing injuries from a recent car accident?
If you've experienced injuries from a car accident in the province of Manitoba, collect all information from the other parties involved (if possible), take photos of the vehicle damage and of bodily injuries related to the car accident to help the Certified Athletic Therapist piece together what your body went through along with your musculoskeletal orthopedic physical assessment to create a rehab program addressing pain management, improve mobility, function, body awareness, and educating the patient to facilitate the healing process.
Individuals who wait months to address their injuries sustained from a motor vehicle accidents may take longer to recover due to the body's healing process that may present with limitations and restrictions that weren't addressed immediately after the injury.
