Motor Vehicle Accident Injuries

---

Being involved in a motor vehicle accident can be overwhelming—physically, emotionally, and financially. Even low-speed collisions can cause injuries that may not appear right away. Pain, stiffness, headaches, and reduced mobility often develop days or even weeks after an accident.

Early assessment and proper treatment are critical to preventing long-term complications and helping you return to your normal activities as safely and quickly as possible.

Motor vehicle accidents frequently result in injuries such as:

• Neck pain and whiplash
• Low back pain and disc-related injuries
• Shoulder, knee, hip, and ankle injuries
• Muscle strains and ligament sprains
• Headaches and post-concussion symptoms
• Concussions and head trauma
• Numbness, tingling, or radiating pain
• Fractures of the limbs
• Foot and lower limb pain affecting walking or standing

Even if symptoms seem mild, untreated injuries can worsen over time.

Depending on your needs, your care may include:

• Physiotherapy for MVA injuries to improve mobility, strength, and function
• Chiropractic for MVA to regain mobility and function of the spine
• Chiropody/Podiatry care for foot, ankle, and lower-limb injuries
• Manual therapy and pain-relief techniques
• Modalities to help pain and reduce inflammation 
• Therapeutic exercise and rehabilitation programs
• Custom orthotics to improve alignment and reduce stress on injured joints
• Education and home exercise programs to support long-term recovery

Our integrated approach ensures every aspect of your injury is addressed.
