Rehabilitation Program
Injuries at work or sports can be accidental, such as a slip or fall, or slowly over time with repetitive strain on an area of the body. If you are injured while at work, make a claim through your employer, and the Workers Compensation Board will cover your initial assessment fee and will decide if you are approved for further treatment. Be sure to make a claim through your employer within 5 days of becoming aware of your workplace injury. Workplace injuries are a common problem. We offer programs that provide workplace injury rehabilitation, work site assessments, and prevention ergonomic advice in consultation with work place safety expert wherever required.
If you sustain any injury at sports, our sports physiotherapist are highly experienced in the assessment and treatment of soft tissue injuries, with vast knowledge of biomechanics, tissue pathology and healing. They carry out a thorough assessment, treatment and design an appropriate rehabilitation program for all musculoskeletal injuries and conditions.

Your diagnosis and treatment plan will be discussed in the vivid way.
Treatment is likely to involve the use of osteopathic techniques within the treatment room combined with a more specific exercise based program in the studio gym. The aim is to regain complete AROM and back to ADL.
