Rehabilitation is not a trendy word, but it stands the test of time. When it comes to sport injury treatment things are well understood: if you want good function from your body, you have to re-train it through physical therapy. That means commitment, and sticking to the aforementioned physical therapy. In the case of a vehicle accident you need to work with a car accident chiropractor. This is because those kind of injuries deceitful, and if you don’t do rehab for long enough they can come back. Many different forms of back pain can be like this. Someone experienced in these kind of injuries can better treat them naturally or through professional intervention, such as a Ankle Replacement Surgery. Keep in mind that even when your feeling fine, you should make sure you take care of yourself every so often.
A little goes a long way in preventing the recurrence of pain. Physical Rehabilitation Treatment often needs to be continued for longer than the pain lasts. The exercises don’t take that long, usually 10 minutes, its more about the routine. So if you’re strengthening/stretching/balancing better, and start to feel less pain, carry on with those rehabilitation exercises.
As a rule of thumb, it takes about 6 weeks for initial strength gains, although proprioception (the sense of positioning, alignment and balance) can occur within a much shorter time. Your physio can help to assess the changes in strength, alignment, flexibility or balance and determine whether the exercises are working and if not, why not. In the mean time manual therapy (hands on) could assist the progression of the process and give you pain relief.
