Our team is pledged to provide excellent service at all times. We collaborate closely with your primary care physician or surgeon to ensure a healthy and successful recovery.

Common Causes of Workplace Injuries

Our expert physiotherapists understand that workplace injuries can result from various factors, including:

• Slips, trips, and falls
• Repetitive motions or overexertion
• Exposure to hazardous materials or chemicals
• Improper use of equipment or machinery
• Lifting heavy objects
• Vehicle accidents during work
• Violence in the workplace
• Fire or explosion incidents
• Natural disasters or severe weather conditions
• Stress or burnout due to work-related stressors

The Crucial Role of Physiotherapy in Workplace Injuries

Physiotherapy is important in the recovery and rehabilitation process following a workplace injury. Our skilled physiotherapists can reduce pain and swelling using manual, massage, and heat or cold therapy.

Our physiotherapy treatments also promote healing by increasing blood flow to the injured area. Physiotherapy exercises, guided by our registered physiotherapists and massage therapists, improve range of motion, flexibility, and overall mobility. This enables individuals to return to their daily activities and work duties sooner.

Physiotherapy exercises strengthen the injured area, reducing the risk of further injuries and improving overall physical function. Additionally, physiotherapy addresses underlying factors that may have contributed to the main injury, such as poor posture, helping to prevent re-injury.

Our Comprehensive Physiotherapy Approach

Our experienced physiotherapists follow a tried-and-tested regimen:

1. Evaluation: We assess your medical history, symptoms, and physical function, along with various tests and assessments to identify the root cause(s).
2. Treatment Plan: Based on the assessment, we create a personalized treatment plan incorporating techniques and exercises to reduce pain, improve mobility, and promote healing.
3. Manual Therapy: We use manual therapy techniques, including massage, joint mobilization, and stretching, to alleviate pain and enhance mobility.
4. Prescribed Exercises: Specific exercises to enhance strength, flexibility, and overall physical function are prescribed.
5. Modalities: We may employ heat or cold therapy, electrical stimulation, or ultrasound to reduce pain and swelling and support healing.
6. Home Exercise Program: Individuals receive a tailored home exercise program to continue progress outside therapy sessions.

The frequency and duration of physiotherapy sessions vary based on individual needs and goals, typically 40 minutes to an hour. Our physiotherapists regularly assess progress and adjust treatment plans as necessary.

We may recommend additional therapies such as massage, shockwave therapy, TENS, and more if required. Physiotherapy plays a pivotal role in helping individuals recover from workplace injuries, reducing the risk of future injuries, and enhancing overall physical function and health.

Why Custom Knee Braces Are Superior to OTC Options

Over-the-counter (OTC) knee braces are designed to fit a broad range of individuals and may not offer an optimal fit. Ill-fitting braces may not provide the necessary support and effectiveness.

OTC knee braces may need more durability and comfort than custom-made ones. To ensure you receive the best support and comfort, consult with us for a custom knee brace tailored to your specific knee condition and needs.
