Understanding Muscle Injuries: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment
What Are Muscle Strains?
A strain is an injury to a muscle or the tissue connecting muscle to bone, known as a tendon. Strains can vary in severity from minor overstretching to partial or complete tears. Common symptoms include:
- Pain and tenderness
- Swelling
- Muscle spasms
- Limited ability to move the affected muscle
Effective Treatment Strategies
At Healing Arts Center & Physical Therapy, we use the R.I.C.E. approach to treat muscle strains:
- Rest: Allowing the injured area to heal by avoiding activities that may aggravate the injury.
- Ice: Applying ice packs to reduce swelling and numb the pain.
- Compression: Using bandages or wraps to provide support and decrease swelling.
- Elevation: Keeping the injured area raised above heart level to minimize swelling.
Additionally, our healthcare professionals may recommend pain relievers, bracing, or splinting. In severe cases, such as a torn tendon, surgery might be necessary.
Key Benefits of Physical Therapy for Muscle Injuries
1. Pain Management
Physical therapy can significantly reduce pain and swelling, helping to prevent chronic discomfort and reliance on prescription medications like opioids.
2. Improved Mobility
Our physical therapy programs are designed to enhance your range of motion, flexibility, and strength, enabling you to move more confidently and safely.
3. Faster Recovery
With targeted exercises and therapies, we can accelerate your recovery process, reducing downtime and helping you return to your daily activities or athletic pursuits more quickly.
4. Avoiding Surgery
In many cases, effective physical therapy can heal injuries or alleviate pain to the extent that surgery becomes unnecessary, saving you from more invasive procedures and extended recovery times.

After visiting Phy Ther for a few weeks due to some foot issues, the staff and I agreed I was set well enough to be discharged. A few weeks later, I had the same recurring foot pain show up. Using the exercises and stretches they gave me, not only was I able to stretch out and subside the pain. I felt almost back to normal after a few days of extra stretches. This is just the PT dept. The reception staff is very friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable even though I am sure everyone in there is in there with some sort of ailment. I have also visited Dr Gregory and Erin and have the same wonderful reviews for them. Healing long time ailments I had just chalked up to growing old. Thank you all!!!!
