Massage Therapy Treatments for Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) Rehabilitation

Massage Therapy is a commonly used and very effective form of rehabilitation for injuries resulting from motor vehicle accidents (MVA). Common injuries associated with motor vehicle accidents include whiplash and neck pain, low back pain, TMJ dysfunction (jaw pain) as well as more serious injuries.

MVA Treatment Plan

After performing an assessment and suggesting a treatment plan based on the findings, we will recommend home care ideas such as hydrotherapy, pillowing for sleeping positions, ergonomics at work or at home, as well as exercise therapy when appropriate.

Massage therapy treatments are aimed at reducing pain and inflammation, as well as restoring muscular function and optimal range of motion.

Working with Complementary Health Care Providers

MVA rehabilitation often requires the care of more than one health care provider,including your physician; it is safe to receive massage therapy at the same time as receiving a course of treatment from other types of therapy. Other complementary options may include chiropractic care, acupuncture, and exercise therapy.

MVA Rehabilitation is Covered by Motor Vehicle Insurance

Treatment is usually totally covered directly through your motor vehicle insurance as part of your accident benefits claim, and progress reports will be sent regularly to your insurance company and referring physician.

The sooner after the accident you come for treatment the better, but even if a significant amount of time has passed, it is never too late to relieve pain and restore mobility. Schedule your massage therapy treatment for motor vehicle accident related injury rehabilitation today. >>
