“When I began physical therapy, I was very hopeless, because of two accidents just five days apart from each other. After a couple weeks of doing strengthening exercises for my back and also being consistent with exercising at home, I saw a difference with my body. The results at Kinetix were unbelievable. I am very grateful to have worked with my very skilled and professional Physical Therapists, Tony Cere and Scott Eddins. Not to mention, their assistants were great as well! They all played a part in my proper healing.” - Aja

Whiplash is a common injury sustained in a motor vehicle accident that can lead to severe neck pain, headaches, pain withmovement, and even a numbness or a tingling sensation into the upper extremities. Due to the shock and trauma following the accident, whiplash typically feels worse 1-2 days after the injury, as inflammation sets in and tissues become swollen. There are progressive phases of rehabilitation to help you after suffering whiplash. Our physical therapists are whiplash experts and will work with your physician on the appropriate treatment to help you recover and relieve pain. As you progress, pain should begin to subside, and range of motion should improve. It is very important that you continue through with the recommended treatment plan as advised by a physical therapist to achieve a full recovery and prevent future, recurring problems. Contact us today to discover how we can help relieve your whiplash pain quickly and make a full recovery.
If you have recently been in a car accident, Kinetix Physical Therapy can help. Automobile accidents can result in injuries ranging frommild cuts and abrasions to broken bones and severe whiplash. This, undoubtedly, results in pain and discomfort following the accident. While opioids are typically prescribed for auto injury pain, they can pose some dangerous risks. As we know, opioids are highly addictive and contain undesirable side effects. In fact, just within the year of 2016, opioid overdoses claimed the lives of 116 people each day. It is also estimated that about 11.5million Americansmisuse the pain-management drugs they’re prescribed when recovering from an injury – such as those sustained during car accidents. Fortunately, physical therapy is a much safer and more effective pain- management solution. Physical therapy can help in your recovery from an automobile accident by reducing pain and inflammation, in addition to restoring range of motion. At Kinetix Physical Therapy, we offer many solutions to determine the sources of pain following injury and effectively treat your pain. Our most successful treatment plans include: • Manual therapy • Laser therapy • In-house diagnostics

“I am now 100% back to my normal daily routine and life is good!” “I came to Kinetix after a horrible car accident, where I was at a standstill and rear-ended at 65 mph. I had a neck sprain, lumbar sprain, pinched nerves, hip sprains, and spasms which caused severe pain. I wasn’t able to walk or stand for ten minutes at a time. I am now 100% back to my normal daily routine and life is good. Thanks to Dr. Scott Eddins and the Kinetix staff.” - Annette
