Why See A Physical Therapist After An Automobile Accident?

No matter how small your motor vehicle accident seemed, your body absorbed significant force to shift your spine and potentially restrict the activities of your central nervous system. The force of the collision moved through the vehicle and your body. Shock absorbing technology does not eliminate all the shock, it just lessens it or diverts it. Even a “fender bender” bent a fender! Any magnitude of impact is likely to have affected you — in ways you may not even notice yet.

Research and clinic experience now demonstrate that it is quite common to not experience all of your symptoms from collisions immediately. Surprised? Don’t be.

How much will care cost?

Under Minnesota law, all motor vehicle owners must have no-fault coverage as part of their automobile insurance. What does this mean to you? No fault means that whether the accident is your fault or the other party’s, your auto insurance will cover all your medical expenses. No fault benefits may also include compensation for wage loss, medical expenses, mileage and a replacement vehicle.

What is covered?

Ambulance fees, surgery, chiropractic care, physical therapy, some dental and optical treatments. Rehabilitation and prescription drugs, as well as any imaging that needs to be done will also be covered under your auto insurance. Many alternative health care services will also be covered such as massage therapy and acupuncture.
