But good physiotherapy treatment can definitely cure it. • Accidents can cause many types of injuries, and the most common one is whiplash. It is a neck injury caused due to forceful or rapid back and forth movement of the neck. In most of the cases, it is caused by rear-end car accidents. • Car accidents are a common cause of this injury, but it can also result from physical abuse, a sudden fall, any sports accidents such as bungy jumping, etc.

  6. Top Physiotherapy Treatment for Whiplash • Electrotherapy for early healing and pain relief. • Medication to relieve your muscles tension and assist your pain. • Joint mobilization or joint manipulation to loosen the stiffness of joints- the less your joints are stiff, the better it is for you. • Psychologists advise– listen to their advice and follow the instructions for healing. • For short term muscles, physiotherapists help in tension relief and provide soft tissue massage. • Credence Physiotherapy is the best Physiotherapy Clinic Calgary that is best for MVA rehabilitation.
