When workplace-injury physiotherapy may help

Physiotherapy may be considered when an injury affects movement, strength, tolerance for work tasks or confidence returning to activity.

  • Back or neck strains

  • Shoulder, arm, wrist or hand injuries

  • Hip, knee, ankle or foot injuries

  • Sprains, strains and repetitive-load symptoms

  • Recovery following an eligible workplace-related surgery or fracture

Seek urgent medical assessment

Get urgent medical help for severe or rapidly worsening weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the saddle area, major trauma, a visibly deformed limb, chest pain, difficulty breathing or other symptoms that may require emergency care.

A job-focused rehabilitation plan

Care is based on your assessment, current abilities, job demands and WorkSafeBC claim requirements.

Assess movement and function

We review symptoms, relevant movement, strength and the work tasks currently affected.
