Most injuries seen in our office from automobile accidents are sprain-strain injuries of joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons, most commonly, in the neck and lower back.

Even the mildest impacts subject the human occupants of vehicles to high forces. Because the accidents occur in hundredths of seconds, the body cannot react quickly enough to prevent the forces of impact from damaging our bodies.

The upper body (extremities) consist not only of the shoulder girdle, arm, wrist, and hand, but also derives stabilization and motion from the spine. Proper treatment of extremity injures requires thorough evaluation of all structures which may either directly or indirectly effect function in the extremity.

Treatment programs are designed to address all of the underlying conditions. Patients will be provided at-home stretches and exercises to strengthen and stabilize the injured and related areas.
