What should you do first after a vehicle collision in Calgary?
Car accidents are a leading cause of death and injury in Alberta and can cause serious injuries, including whiplash, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, broken bones and internal bleeding. If you are experiencing any severe symptoms head to the nearest Emergency Department.
Injuries may also be minor, and you may notice some aches and pains after the initial shock of the collision wears off but symptoms can continue to worsen for several days after the accident. Just because these whiplash injuries are labeled as ‘minor’ does not mean you do not need to obtain treatment to resolve the injury in a timely fashion.

FAQs
Can all physiotherapists order x-rays and ultrasound Imaging?
Physiotherapists who have taken additional training are authorized to refer patients for x-rays and other imaging. These tests are used conservatively to assist in establishing a diagnosis, to assist in interventional procedures, or in clinical decision making. All Momentum Health & Evidence Sport and Spine clinics have clinicians who have been authorized by the College of Physiotherapists of Alberta to order diagnostic imaging.
Should I continue seeing a therapist even when I feel better?
The short answer is yes! However, at [site-name], we encourage you to continue seeing your physiotherapist after your symptoms appear to have resolved, if it is medically warranted.
Even though you may feel better, you may still not be fully rehabilitated. Furthermore, regular physiotherapy can prevent future injury or pain while helping you optimize your overall physical performance and function.
Physiotherapy is a comprehensive and ongoing process, not a one-and-done. Even after you’ve completed your initial round of treatment, our therapists can help you develop a personalized medical plan that ensures you’re continuing to maximize your potential.
Here’s an example:
- Your therapist assigns you a series of specialized at-home exercises so you can continue to strengthen your muscles and improve your range of motion.
- You come in for a re-evaluation after a period of time, to ensure your home exercise program is working as intended.
- You schedule check-in appointments at regular intervals (such as every six months) to ensure you haven’t regressed and to address any new developments.
Our clinicians will also develop a return-to-activity schedule so you can safely return to your favourite sport or workout program while minimizing the risk of reinjury. A return-to-activity schedule involves gradually increasing the intensity of certain movements until you can operate as usual.
The physiotherapists at [site-name] are here to help you succeed with your treatment. To get started, book an appointment today!
