Typical Symptoms:

As a rehabilitation specialist that has provided care to countless patients that have been involved in motor vehicle collision/accident, we are aware that you may be experiencing severe throbbing neck pain, or low back pain, joint stiffness, pain with minimal range of motion, often-times the  pain may radiate to the arm or leg with associated numbness and tingling. Certain patients may be experiencing a severe, throbbing headache that radiates around the head. All these symptoms can occur from even a low impact accident without the patient striking their head within the vehicle.

How we can help:

After an initial evaluation the doctor will customize a physical therapy program that’s specific for you which  may consist of physical therapy modalities including moist heat applications, electrical stimulation, ultrasound treatments, hydrobed, various massage treatments by a licensed massage therapist.  The PPMRC also provides patient specific stretching and variable resistance  strengthening programs.
