What types of accidents result in what kinds of injuries?

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there are over 6 million police-reported crashes in the U.S. each year. Our therapists are experienced in treating a wide range of injuries sustained in motor vehicle accidents. Some of the most common types include:

  • Rear-end collisions: These accidents often result in whiplash, which affects the neck muscles and can cause pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion.
  • Side-impact collisions: Also known as “T-bone” accidents, these crashes can lead to injuries affecting the spine, pelvis, and limbs, including fractures and dislocations.
  • Head-on collisions: Often the most severe type of accident, head-on collisions can cause multiple trauma injuries, such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injury, and severe fractures.

Discover the Path to Holistic Healing After a Motor Vehicle Accident

Our team of highly skilled professionals in Bozeman, MT specializes in treating motor vehicle accident injuries, guiding patients on a journey toward optimal health and restored vitality. Here are some of the most common car accident injuries we treat at Root Therapy & Wellness:

  • Bulging and/or Herniated Discs: A motor vehicle accident can lead to herniated discs in the spine, causing neck and back pain, numbness, and weakness. These symptoms can impact your ability to perform daily tasks and maintain an active lifestyle.
  • Whiplash: A whiplash injury affects the neck muscles and ligaments. It can cause pain, stiffness, headaches, and limited range of motion, making daily activities like driving, working on a computer, and even sleeping challenging.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Accidents can cause strains and sprains in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons supporting the spine and joints throughout the body. These injuries lead to back and neck pain, headaches, stiffness, and limited mobility.
  • Fractures and Dislocations: Injuries like fractures and dislocations can affect any bone or joint in the body and lead to limited mobility, impairing the ability to perform essential daily tasks.

How can Root Therapy & Wellness assist me in recovering from my car accident injury?

At Root Therapy & Wellness, we believe in the power of holistic healing. We address not only the physical injuries sustained in motor vehicle accidents but also your emotional and mental well-being. Our dedication to compassionate, patient-centered care guarantees a personalized recovery journey that facilitates long-term wellness.

We start our evaluation by reviewing your medical history for prior injuries and conditions. Then our therapists conduct a hands-on assessment, to identify any structural abnormalities, muscle imbalances, or tender spots. We then perform range of motion and strength tests to gauge your flexibility, muscle power, and joint stability. Lastly, movement and mobility testing helps us evaluate your functional abilities and identify limitations.

With a deep understanding of your physical condition, our therapists will develop an individualized treatment plan that incorporates a variety of holistic techniques, including:

Manual therapy

Our therapists use hands-on techniques, such as joint mobilization and soft tissue therapy, to relieve pain, improve joint mobility, and restore proper muscle function.

Therapeutic exercises

We prescribe targeted stretching, strengthening, and balance exercises. The purpose is to enhance flexibility, increase muscle strength, and improve overall stability, facilitating optimal recovery.

Postural education

We teach patients proper body mechanics and posture to help prevent future injuries and promote long-term wellness.

Pain management strategies

Our therapists use holistic modalities like heat therapy, cold therapy, and electrical stimulation. These strategies alleviate pain, fostering a nurturing environment for healing.
