Acute Injury Recovery in Edina, MN: A One Week Intensive

Aervita is located in Edina, MN and treats patients from across the Minneapolis and St. Paul metro and western Wisconsin.

Usually the same week, which is the entire point. Call us at 952-213-6386 and we will find you five consecutive days.

Yes, if we have not seen you here for this already. The $84 Initial Health Assessment is required before the protocol starts, and it is a 40 minute visit with our doctor of chiropractic. Existing patients we have already assessed for this can go straight in. We would rather spend forty minutes finding out this is not the right fit than take your money and hope.

If you have an obvious fracture or dislocation, a wound that will not stop bleeding, or you cannot bear weight, go be seen first. We would rather turn you away for a day than treat around something that needs imaging.

Research suggests hyperbaric oxygen supports circulation and tissue repair, which matters most where swelling has compromised normal blood flow. It is offered here as supportive care alongside whoever is managing your injury.

PEMF stands for pulsed electromagnetic field therapy. A localized paddle is placed over the injured area and used to help stimulate circulation between hyperbaric sessions. Sessions run about twenty minutes.

Because it is one week. Red light rewards consistency over a longer arc, so we put the budget into daily hyperbaric sessions instead. Our longer protocols include it.

The full one week intensive is $697. Booked session by session the same care runs $1,037, so bundling saves $340, more than 30%. Pay in full, choose a monthly payment plan, or apply for third party financing. Everyone starts with an $84 Initial Health Assessment.

The session counts are the same. What changes is the chamber pressure, which we set for what you are recovering from. Which protocol you are on is decided at your Initial Health Assessment, and the price is the same either way.

Physical therapy focuses on movement, loading and strength. This protocol uses hyperbaric oxygen and PEMF to support the tissue environment while you heal. The two work well together and neither replaces the other.

That depends entirely on the injury, and it is one of the things we settle at your assessment. Sometimes the answer is rest, sometimes it is modified loading.

Yes. If deeper healing is warranted the intensive runs again, and for a bigger injury a second week is often the right call. Your reassessment is where we decide that. If the problem turns out to be recurring rather than acute, we will point you at something better suited instead.

Coverage varies by provider and plan. Our team can walk you through your options at your assessment.

A short, standardized course of our health technology. Same sequence for every patient, no session-by-session personalization, which is what lets it start fast and be priced as a bundle.

Sprains, strains, muscle and tendon tears, post fracture healing once you are out of the cast or boot, surgical wounds, stubborn skin wounds and crush type injuries all qualify. The common thread is recent tissue damage that your body is actively trying to repair.

If you are not sure whether your situation fits the acute injury protocol, call us and describe what happened. If a different course would serve you better, we will point you there at the assessment.

Yes. One week is the standard course, and for a mild sprain or strain it is often all people want. A more significant acute injury sometimes calls for a second week, and the reassessment at the end of your first course is where we make that call together.

Repeating the acute injury protocol is not automatic. We look at how the tissue is responding, what your provider or physical therapist is seeing, and how you feel day to day. If a session package makes more sense than a full second course, we will recommend that instead, because it is usually the less expensive path.

Either way, you leave the reassessment with a plan: continue, step down to individual sessions, or be done. An acute injury heals on its own timeline, and the schedule should follow the tissue rather than the calendar. That is also why the protocol pairs daily hyperbaric time with PEMF instead of forcing every injury into an identical plan.
