WORKPLACE INJURIES COVER A WIDE VARIETY OF INCIDENTS, INCLUDING:

• Repetitive strain (e.g., assembly line tasks)
• Heavy lifting (e.g., moving equipment)
• Sudden slips/falls
• Direct impacts (e.g., being struck by heavy equipment)

TREATMENT MAY INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:

• Education:
  Education plays a crucial role in pain management by empowering individuals with knowledge about their condition, treatment options, and self-care strategies.
• Ergonomics:
  Training in proper posture for optimal alignment of chairs, desks, computers, and work tools, and instruction on safe techniques for pushing, carrying, pulling, and lifting.
• Shockwave Therapy:
  Shockwave therapy is used to promote healing, improve circulation, and reduce pain in targeted tissues. Effective for conditions like tendinitis and plantar fasciitis, it helps reduce inflammation, break down calcium deposits, and relieve pain after just a few sessions.
• IMS/Dry Needling:
  IMS/dry needling involves inserting thin needles into muscle trigger points to relieve pain and improve function.
• Ultrasound/TENS:
  Ultrasound and TENS to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling, promote healing, and prevent scar tissue formation.
• Manual Therapy:
  Soft tissue work and mobilizations for the spine and joints to restore movement and function.
• Exercise Rehabilitation:
  Customized and gradual exercises aimed at safely transitioning back to work and daily activities, focusing on posture stability, core strength, balance, functional strength, and a home exercise program.
