Road to Recovery: Dealing with the Aftermath of a Car Accident

Whether a fender bender has left you with whiplash or you’ve suffered from a slipped disc in your back from the impact, our physical therapy program at Structura can be what it feels like when you go “in the shop”—returning you good as new (without the major mechanic bill). We know that car accidents leave a lasting impact, not only on your bumper, but also on your body. To get you healthy, happy, and pain-free again, we have the program in place to evaluate your pain, problem areas, and weaknesses to create a plan to help you get back driving smoothly. Our staff is highly trained to help you discover the source of your problems and not just treat you for your symptoms. Especially with such a fast-action injury like a car accident, you might come to find that the pain isn’t just where you feel it—but trailed back all the way to the source. We want to help you overcome those obstacles you’ve been facing in your recovery process alone, being that guy in your corner for your healing process. Our professional therapists take each of your injuries and pain points seriously, approaching each and every one with the care and concern you’ve been looking for—that you just can’t get anywhere else. Just like your insurance takes care of your car, let our licensed therapists take care of you, working on your problem areas with optimal methods and techniques, which help promote recovery. We know that a car accident can leave you limited in what you used to be able to do before.

At Structura, we are aware of the benefits of our therapeutic exercises and methods that can focus on certain musculoskeletal conditions that have popped up after the accident. We are also passionate to do our best to not let those certain conditions ever stop you from doing something you love. The adaptation of our programs to fit your individual needs is what sets our methods apart from other physical therapy programs. We tailor and custom a Physical Therapy Program and Treatment Plan to match your movements on an individual basis. We also use our database of case reports we’ve taken care of in the past who had injuries just like yours. Past patients and our experience (as well as our educational background) can help provide an optimal experience for you, planning out the perfect program tailored to your body. From the beginning of our program right to the very end, we will help improve your mobility and flexibility, while still focusing on getting you pain-free. Through the pain you have been feeling now, you might feel tempted to lean toward medication or surgery; however, through our program, you won’t have to resort to either. Instead of getting a cookie cutter program, Structura will highly emphasize your individual movement, your pain level, and the structure of your body. From the first assessment, we will take into account your starting line and evaluating how you are when you come into our offices. From there, we will create some personal goals together, which will help us develop that perfect, personalized plan to help you crush it. From our initial evaluation, our trained professionals on-staff can help you identify any weaknesses you may be having, imbalances in your form or body, and take all pain into account when creating the plan you need to get better. Our program can be centered to a simple statement: We want to help you manage your pain. From a car accident to our offices, our staff here at Structura will use our knowledge and experience to help you step-by-step in your treatment. We take you through the plan of treating your injury, managing your pain, and developing a program in place for you to move forward on your individual journey. Every car accident happens differently—affecting different families, cars, and different parts of your body—so why treat them all the same?

At Structura, we don’t. We use a wide variety of therapeutic methods which can help us pick out the best techniques to work with to help us optimally treat your pain. You might have chronic tension that needs to be released or need to work on particular muscle fascia in your body. We will evaluate this first and foremost to help you with your pain plan. By focusing our efforts on the recovery of your body—and mind—we also ask that you take a moment and focus on getting yourself better too. Through your individualized plan, we can get you back to feeling pain-free again—as if the accident never happened.
