Physical Therapy plays a pivotal role in rehabilitation from workplace injuries. Physical Therapy is covered by workman’s compensation insurance and is the first step in your road to recovery and pain-free return to work.
Some of the common workplace injuries can be
- Injuries related to falls which can often impact multiple areas of the body
- Sprains or strains to the muscles, tendons and ligaments
- Low back pain or disc issues
- Repetitive injuries
- Other job site related trauma
Navigating workman’s compensation can be a confusing process. You always want to report your injury to your supervisor who can then guide you to see the right doctor. Once the doctor completes his/her evaluation, they can recommend physical therapy.
