Physiotherapy for
Work-Related Injuries
Workplace injuries can affect your ability to perform daily tasks, return to work, and maintain an active lifestyle.
Whether your injury occurred due to heavy lifting, repetitive strain, or a workplace accident, physiotherapy can help restore movement and support a safe recovery.
At Flaman Physiotherapy, we provide structured workplace injury rehabilitation programs designed to help patients recover safely and return to work with confidence.
Our treatment approach focuses on pain reduction, strength rebuilding, and restoring functional movement required for your job.
Common Workplace Injuries We Treat
Work-related injuries can occur in many industries and job roles.
Common workplace injuries include back injuries from lifting, neck and shoulder strain, repetitive strain injuries, muscle strains, joint sprains, slips and falls, and overuse injuries.
Physiotherapy helps address both the injury and the movement patterns that contributed to it.
Common Workplace Conditions
At Flaman Physiotherapy, our therapists deal with injuries from slips and falls, lifting and carrying injuries, excessive and unfamiliar repetitive strain injuries, and injuries from poorly designed workplace ergonomics.
Lower Back Injuries
Often caused by lifting, bending, or prolonged sitting.
Unfamiliar Repetitive Strain Injuries
Common in office work, manufacturing, and repetitive task environments, when a new task that your body has not adapted to is introduced into your job
Shoulder Injuries
Often related to overhead work or repetitive arm movements.
Neck and Postural Strain
Frequently associated with desk work and poor workstation ergonomics.
How Physiotherapy Helps Workplace Injuries
Manual Therapy
Our physiotherapists provide skilled hands-on biomechanical treatment, using their knowledge of anatomy to improve joint mobility and muscle extensibility. Localizing the individual joints at fault, they will manually improve the joint mobility with focused and directed pressure to the affected area.
Therapeutic Modalities
Our therapists utilize a wide variety of advanced modalities to enhance the effectiveness of their biomechanical techniques. Ultrasound and laser therapy for inflammation and swelling when it is present. TENS/EMS to desensitize an area and loosen tight muscles around the injured region. Acupuncture and Gunn IMS dry needling for pain relief and to restore normal motion to the affected area. Shockwave therapy to improve joint mobility and to reduce areas of calcified tendinosis where appropriate.
Strength Rehabilitation
We focus on the exercises that will help you both recover from your workplace injury, and help prevent similar injuries from occurring again in the future.
Mobility and Movement Training
Our therapists identify any habitual motions you have that may predispose you to injury. We then work with you to
develop improved ways to accomplish your work duties without using these movements. This will help the injury recover now and lessen the chances of recurrence in the future.
Work-Specific Rehabilitation
Our team will design programs that simulate the tasks you need to perform.
This helps ensure we are hitting our goals of returning you in the safest way possible back to your place of employment.
Injury Prevention Education
Identifying what caused the injury and working with you and your employer to eliminate potential risks going forward.
Return-to-Work Rehabilitation Programs
Returning to work after an injury requires a gradual and structured approach.
Our team focuses on rehabilitating your injury, regaining your strength, and keeping you safe during the process of returning to the work environment.

Our goal is to help patients safely return to their job duties while minimizing the risk of recurring injury.
