Rehabilitative care includes a combination of soft-tissue mobilization and myofascial release (both types of therapeutic massage), gentle stretching, joint mobilization, therapeutic exercises and modalities such as therapeutic ultra-sound and electrical stimulation. With most minor impact soft-tissue (MIST) injuries, and for the rehabilitative process to be effective, the typical length of treatment lasts 6-8 weeks, sometimes a bit less and sometimes more, depending on the severity of the injuries. The sooner you get started the better.
