Through our gymnasium, we regularly provide Workcover approved ‘back-to-work’ conditioning programmes, and have obtained fantastic results in getting our patients back to work and injury free. We assess the patient’s specific workplace demands, and design treatments and exercises that are suitable and relevant to the individual. A physiotherapist supervises the sessions, ensuring that exercises are performed correctly, and that the patient trains their body with safety & efficiency.

​

We take a very hands-on approach to treatment, using techniques which aim to minimise pain and restriction in the muscles and joints. We also strongly believe in exercise after injury, to retrain the body back to full function. We take the same approach to treating work injuries, as we do in rehabilitating sporting injuries. Some of the exercises incorporated into rehabilitation include:

​

• Resistance weight training

• Clinical Pilates, using the reformer, trapeze table, or mat exercises

• Core-stability training

• Neuromuscular retraining

• Aerobic conditioning

• Swiss ball exercises

• Theraband resistance training

• Training of bending, lifting and handling techniques

• Postural correction
