Atlantic Rehab: Your Reliable Companion in Recovery

Jacksonville's Premier Injury Treatment Center: Evidence-Based Treatment for Car Accident Injuries, Workplace Injuries & Chronic Pain

Premier Injury Recovery Center – Rebuilding Strength Through Multidisciplinary Care

When a motor vehicle collision, work-related trauma, or exercise-related damage disrupts your life, you need more than standard protocols. You need a medical staff that understands the biomechanics of soft tissue damage, the nervous system consequences of cervical spine trauma, and the proven treatment approaches that accelerate tissue healing while preventing chronic pain development.

At our injury treatment center, our multidisciplinary approach combines musculoskeletal evaluation, neuromuscular rehabilitation, and hands-on treatment techniques to address the underlying injury mechanisms, not just mask the pain.

Our Evidence-Based Treatment Modalities

1. Functional Movement Restoration

Our certified rehabilitation specialists utilize biomechanical assessment and functional capacity evaluation to design graduated rehabilitation programs targeting:

• Proprioceptive retraining: Rebuilding spatial awareness after joint trauma
• Movement pattern correction: Correcting compensatory movement patterns that perpetuate pain
• Progressive resistance training: Graduated load application to restore baseline functional capacity
• Gait analysis and correction: Optimizing stride mechanics contributing to lower extremity pain

Clinical outcome: The majority of cases exhibit documented progress in daily activity performance within the initial treatment phase (based on validated outcome measures).

2. Myofascial Release and Manual Therapy

Board-certified massage therapists perform precision hands-on treatment to address:

• Pain knot elimination: Reducing referred pain patterns from tissue restrictions
• Connective tissue mobilization: Improving tissue glide and minimizing protective tension
• Lymphatic drainage: Speeding swelling reduction following injury
• Fibrotic tissue mobilization: Avoiding permanent restrictions after recent trauma

Treatment frequency: Early treatment involves frequent visits, progressing to less frequent sessions as recovery advances.

3. Spinal Adjustment Therapy

Our doctors of chiropractic utilize manual adjustment methods, mechanical-assisted treatment, and tool-based adjustments to restore:

• Spinal positioning: Addressing spinal misalignment causing radicular symptoms
• Vertebral movement: Improving joint motion in restricted areas
• Structural alignment: Addressing forward head posture and structural imbalances
• Intervertebral disc function: Facilitating disc nutrition and minimizing compressive forces

Safety profile: Comprehensive examination precedes treatment to ensure optimal care selection.

4. Adjunctive Treatment Modalities

• Deep tissue ultrasound therapy: Controlled heat application to enhance tissue flexibility and speed ligament recovery
• Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS): Decreasing involuntary contraction and enhancing blood flow
• Ice treatment regimens: Reducing tissue irritation while minimizing analgesic dependency
• Therapeutic taping: Supporting sensory input and protecting damaged structures during movement-based activities
• Thermotherapy: Promoting muscle relaxation before therapeutic exercise

Integrated Care Coordination

Your treatment providers communicates weekly to refine therapeutic approaches based on measurable progress indicators (range of motion measurements, symptom improvement scores, activity level increases).

Self-Care Instruction

We provide structured independent activities, desk arrangement reviews, and protective movement patterns to minimize future problems.

Our Clinical Philosophy: Performance Recovery, Not Just Temporary Relief

Most treatment centers emphasize pain reduction only through equipment-based therapy or pharmaceutical intervention. While symptom relief matters, our primary objective is restoring your pre-injury functional capacity.

This means:

• Quantifiable objectives: All care plans feature concrete milestones (e.g., "improve shoulder flexion to 150 degrees in 4 weeks")
• Measurement-based assessment: We track advancement using validated outcome measures, not symptom descriptions only
• Staged return to function: Systematic activity advancement that match recovery phases to activity requirements
• Future injury reduction: Identifying biomechanical risk factors and providing corrective strategies to avoid recurrence

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to be seen?

Not necessary. State law permits self-referral to these conservative care services without doctor's orders. However, if you're using insurance, verify your plan's requirements.

How soon after an accident should I seek treatment?

Schedule as soon as possible. Waiting may convert temporary problems into permanent conditions. State regulations mandate 14-day evaluation window of an auto accident to retain no-fault protection.

Will I need diagnostic imaging?

Advanced testing follows specific protocols based on clinical assessment results, trauma details, or treatment plateau. We maintain professional connections with regional radiology providers for rapid appointment access.

What's the expected recovery timeframe?

Recent trauma usually needs two to three months of therapeutic intervention. Complex cases involving disc herniation or multi-level involvement may require 12-16 weeks. Long-standing problems need extended care periods due to altered pain perception patterns.

What if I'm still being treated elsewhere?

We facilitate provider changes and will gather historical medical information to ensure seamless care progression.
