Auto Accident & Personal Injury
Even minor accidents can cause ligament sprains and muscle strains that turn into chronic pain and disability if they are not treated properly. Logos Physical Therapy provides physical therapy after car accidents and personal injuries, including slip and falls, in Perth Amboy and Somerville, New Jersey.
Why to get evaluated soon
People involved in accidents often have minimal or no symptoms until several days afterward. An early evaluation finds what was strained and starts treatment before stiffness and guarding set in. Our goal is to help you receive the proper care after a personal injury such as a slip and fall.

Questions we hear after an accident
Car accident physical therapy and physical therapy after car accident are the same thing: an evaluation, then a plan. We see auto accident injury cases and personal injury physical therapy patients, and whiplash treatment is a common starting point. PIP physical therapy is a billing question, so ask our front desk. For clinical detail on the back and the neck, see back pain, neck pain and shoulder pain.
