Recover Faster After an Auto Accident With Expert Physical Therapy in Orlando
Auto accidents can happen in an instant — but the effects on your body can last for weeks, months, or even longer without the right treatment. At Orlando City Health & Wellness, our licensed physical therapists help patients throughout Orlando, Winter Park, and Central Florida recover from car accident injuries safely and effectively.
Common Injuries from Auto Accidents
Even low-speed collisions can cause serious soft tissue injuries. Many patients walk away from the scene of an accident without realizing the full extent of their injuries — until the pain sets in days later.
Our Orlando physical therapy team commonly treats:
Whiplash and neck strain
Low back pain
Shoulder injuries
Herniated discs
Concussions and headaches
Joint stiffness and muscle spasms
Postural changes after trauma
Why Physical Therapy Is Essential After a Car Accident
1. Prevent Chronic Pain: Early intervention helps reduce inflammation, restore mobility, and prevent long-term damage.
2. Avoid Surgery or Invasive Treatment: With the right rehab plan, many patients avoid surgical interventions altogether.
3. Support Your Personal Injury Claim: We provide detailed documentation and collaborate with your personal injury attorney to support your case (see more in Blog #4).
4. Restore Full Function: We work with you to regain strength, flexibility, and range of motion to return to normal life.
