Workers Compensation Physiotherapy & Recovery

Evidence-Based Treatment to Support a Successful Return to Work, Including Gym Programs.

If you have been injured at work, an accurate diagnosis and evidence-based treatment can assist in a successful recovery and timely return to work. Workers compensation injuries can vary from severe lower back and neck pain to surgical cases. If appropriate, Work Cover WA funds Exercise Based Programs which allows a physiotherapist to take their client into a local gym for a limited number of exercise rehabilitation sessions.  

These gym sessions will involve a detailed assessment to ensure a tailored exercise program to meet your needs. Physiotherapy appointments can then be conducted at your gym of choice, to ensure exercises are done and progressed correctly.
