When someone is involved in a vehicle or workplace accident, symptoms can present immediately following the accident or have a delayed response time, presenting a few days following the injury. When you are involved in a motor vehicle or workplace accident, it is crucial to have your healthcare provider examine and assess whether treatment intervention is required.

Dr. Mathew Saturnino will perform a thorough neuro musculoskeletal assessment, provide an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan that will help you recover from your injuries. If a head injury or suspicion of a concussion is of concern, a concussion screening protocol can be conducted. At Dr. Mathew Saturnino’s office, his staff will help guide you through the required paperwork to initiate a treatment plan to your insurer, whether it is through your auto insurance or Workplace Safety Insurance Board (WSIB).

Most common Motor Vehicle and Workplace Injuries involve soft tissue sprains and strains (muscles and ligaments). Without formal treatment, these soft tissue injuries may naturally get better in 3-6 months. By incorporating hands-on therapy to your injury recovery, patients may experience shorter healing time, a faster return to work and re-engaging in the things they love to do. Hands-on treatment strategies including chiropractic, myofascial release, acupuncture and rehabilitative exercise can reduce the formation of scar tissues that commonly result in chronic pain.

By incorporating therapy into the path of recovery, muscle and ligament tissues can heal in a normalized fashion, reduce scar tissue build up, and be strengthened to prevent future injury through rehabilitative exercise.

Back braces, elbow braces, posture supports, neck pillows and TENS machines are available at the office – most of which are covered under the Accident Benefits of your insurance plan.
