Work Injuries

Each year, countless Australians grapple with work-related injuries. When it comes to musculoskeletal injuries, such as joint, ligament, tendon, muscle, or disc injuries, physiotherapy often plays a crucial role in facilitating a swift and safe return to work.

Crucial considerations to keep in mind:

• Collaboration Between Your Doctor and Physiotherapist: Early assessment and treatment play a pivotal role in your recovery journey. Engaging both your doctor and your physiotherapist in the management of your musculoskeletal work injury is a wise choice. This collaborative approach ensures a thorough assessment to rule out more severe injuries and combines medical expertise with physiotherapeutic modalities to enhance your recovery.
• Addressing back and neck pain: Back and neck issues are all too common in the workplace. Fixed postures, insufficient muscle control, and poor work setups can contribute to these discomforts. Continuous or unexpected lifting can lead to lower back injuries.
• Dealing with sprains and strains: Ligament sprains and muscle strains are frequently encountered by workers. These injuries can occur when a worker stretches, twists, or overloads a joint or soft tissue. Fortunately, with proper management, many of these injuries can be effectively addressed.
• Returning to work with confidence: Our physiotherapy treatment is tailored to support your swift return to work. We understand the importance of getting back on your feet as soon as possible, and in some cases, this may involve modified duties during the early stages of your recovery.
