Work injuries

From desk-bound necks to warehouse backs — treatment plus the paperwork that gets your claim approved.

What It Entails

Hurt at work? Get treated and documented right

Work injuries are two problems at once: the pain, and the process. We treat the first with hands-on therapy and progressive exercise, and we handle the second with precise notes, functional capacity reports and direct communication with your employer and insurer.

Whether it's carpal tunnel from years at a keyboard, a herniated disc from a bad lift, or shoulder impingement from overhead work, your plan targets the job you need to return to — including a supervised work-conditioning phase.

FAQs

Work injury questions

Do you work with workers' comp?

Yes — routinely. We verify your claim, use authorised billing codes and send progress reports to your adjuster so treatment is never interrupted.

Can I stay on light duty during treatment?

Usually. We write specific light-duty restrictions your employer can actually follow, then upgrade them as you improve.

My injury built up over years. Does that count?

Repetitive-strain conditions are valid work injuries in most cases. We document the work connection carefully from the first visit.

Will you fix my workstation too?

Every program ends with an ergonomic review — chair, monitor, keyboard, lifting technique — so the same injury doesn't return.
