When to Go to Physical Therapy After a Car Accident
If you've been in a car accident, it's important to seek physical therapy as soon as possible, even if you don't feel severe pain right away. Many car accident injuries, such as whiplash, can have delayed symptoms. Seeing a physical therapist quickly can help identify and treat these issues before they worsen. Most experts recommend scheduling a physical therapy evaluation within the first 1-2 weeks after a car accident.
How Does Physical Therapy Help After an Auto Accident?
Physical therapy plays a crucial role in recovery from car accident injuries. A physical therapist can evaluate your injuries, develop a personalized treatment plan and provide hands-on therapy to reduce pain and restore mobility. They can also recommend exercises and stretches to strengthen injured areas, teach you techniques to manage pain and prevent further injury, monitor your progress and help you return to normal activities as quickly as possible.
How Much Does Physical Therapy Cost After a Car Accident?
The cost of physical therapy after a car accident can vary, but you can generally expect the initial evaluation to cost between $100-$300, while one-on-one physical therapy sessions can cost $75-$200 per visit.
