Common Benefit of Physiotherapy in workplace injuries
There are a wide range of common workplace injuries that benefit greatly from the use of Physiotherapy as a vehicle for recovery.
Common work place injuries we see at the clinic:
- Repetitive motion injuries
- Slipping or tripping

As we work to help you recover, we also learn about the specific demands and challenges of your workplace and make suggestions on how you can work safer with less chance of re-injury. Our Experts help you in routine Ergonomics by providing you proper advice that aims to increase your efficiency and productivity and reduce discomfort at your workplace.
Therapies are extensive and designed to fasten recovery
As part of treatment, we focus not only on reducing pain and inflammation and promoting healing from workplace injuries, but also on prescribed exercises to help you restore range of motion, posture, function and the mobility needed to return to your work and normal level of activity.
It is important after a serious injury that you are not opening yourself up to a life of chronic pain. Depending on the extent of your injury and the cause of your pain, physiotherapy is beneficial in easing chronic pain by strengthening the muscles that surround painful joints.
Treatment
We use a combination of manual therapy plus modalities and therapeutic exercise to strengthen your muscles and even re-pattern the muscles through exercise designed to reduce recurring pain. Stretches and strengthening exercises work on different parts of the body to build flexibility and range of motion. These are not quick-fix solutions, but done over time, they work to help you restore your range of motion and prevent recurring issues. In addition to treating back injuries incurred in your workplace, we are also experienced and effective in treating back, knee, ankle and shoulder injuries caused by falls, slips, twisting and lifting.
