Physiotherapy treatment

This section of our compensation website discusses physiotherapy and other forms of treatment. 

Therapy helps recovery and forms a vital part of the process that we adopt when dealing with your accident claim.

Physiotherapy - is it necessary?

Many injuries do not require physio or similar treatment to enable the individual to recover fully. Simple fractures, soft tissue injuries such as bruises or strains very often will heal by themselves and within a reasonable timeframe. Your doctor will make the decision about whether treatment is required.

More serious fractures will generally need differing forms of treatment to help the healing process. Less serious but sometimes equally obtrusive injuries such as whiplash or neck strains can benefit tremendously from physio.

There is a great misconception about whiplash related problems. Most people think that whiplash symptoms are minor and usually exaggerated. In our experience they can be the most difficult injuries to resolve and very often can leave an individual with severe long standing disabilities particularly if they are not treated properly.

Early medical intervention particularly physiotherapy, can make a huge difference in helping an individual make a satisfactory recovery from personal injury. Most experts will agree that the earlier you opt for physio the better, but even chronic or long standing symptoms can be improved with such treatment.

It must be stressed that you should only arrange physiotherapy or similar treatment following a doctors recommendation. Always seek an appropriate medical opinion.

As part of our claims process we will send you to see a medical expert who will provide you with a full assessment and discuss the treatment options available.
