WORKER'S COMPENSATION
What is Workers Compensation?
Patients that suffer from work-related injuries may meet the treatment goals of Physical Therapy but cannot return to work due to deconditioning.
Work conditioning programs, which often simulate the demands of a given job description, are designed to help patients with the following:
- Recover their strength
- Improve endurance
- Increase flexibility & mobility
- Improve cardiorespiratory fitness
- Personalized interventions are also provided to decrease the odds of re-injury upon return work
Typically, these programs consist of personalized, full-body, intensive training with a focus on the activities that are similar to the physical demands required by a particular category of employment.
