I agree that this becomes a  big hurdle. I do two things that you probably 
already do as well.
1.) be liberal with finding healing potions.
2.) as they say "time heals all wounds". set up some kind of system for 
healing over time. I would set some restrictions that characters must follow 
in order to regain a point of ST each week. Someone to care after them all 
the time would be necessary if the ST loss was more than 1/2 of their total 
ST (the wounded character must not do anything during the week). Partial 
care would be needed for those who have lost 1/4 to 1/2 of their ST (the 
wounded character would be severely limited in what they could do, i.e. 
write letters, talk for long periods, etc..., and could only do these things 
if they make an ST roll vs. their CURRENT ST!). ST losses of less than a 
quarter would still allow the character to perform everyday tasks such as 
buying food, going to the ale hous etc..., but, any physical strain would 
forfeit the healing process.Work could be done, but, I would suggest having 
any risk rolls be made with a negative modifier equal to the character's ST 
loss.
Since I give characters a limited number of weeks between adventures they 
have to make some trade-offs. Either lie there for a few precious weeks 
recuperating or pay someone for healing potions.
Oh well, just some thoughts.
