Are you dealing with the fallout of an injury sustained at work? This can be a frustrating and complex time, but our compassionate team at Active Recovery is here to support you. With personalised physiotherapy services designed to help along your recovery journey, we aim to reduce the pressure attached to returning to work.
With return-to-work physiotherapy, functional capacity assessments, and rehabilitation programs and helpful multidisciplinary communication, we work towards making your life easier and happier.
Returning to work after an injury is more than just a physical issue. We understand how overwhelming it may feel when you need to consider:
With our return-to-work support, we can provide reports directly to the relevant parties and create a personalised rehabilitation program that supports your return to work and quality of life.
We also offer on-site services at your workplace to conduct realistic assessments and take a practical approach to treatment.
By accepting relevant WorkCover ACT and Comcare integration payment schemes and compensation programs, we provide seamless access to comprehensive physiotherapy services post-injury.
When returning to work after an injury, the main focus is often on the physical effects.
However, we understand the importance of rebuilding your confidence in your abilities and tasks and looking for ways to reduce your concerns about re-injury.
It is typically more beneficial to start rehabilitation as early as possible after an injury.
We encourage you to seek professional support from our experienced team as soon as you can. We will assess you and work with you to develop an appropriate rehabilitation plan.
As dedicated as we are to your rehabilitation, we are equally passionate about preventing workplace injuries.
We provide ergonomic advice, movement education and strengthening strategies to potentially reduce the likelihood of another work-related injury.
At our physiotherapy clinic, we use an active recovery model for workplace injuries. This means we support your rehabilitation, much like we would for an injured athlete returning to their sport. Using evidence-based methods, we aim to help you improve or restore your functionality.
Common aspects of post-injury rehabilitation we target include:
Functional strength and capacity have the ability to significantly impact your recovery and injury prevention. We focus on your strength and biomechanics targeting areas such as the lower back, pelvis, lower limbs, abdomen, neck, and upper limbs, depending on your needs.
If your injury requires surgery, we aim to provide targeted physiotherapy services to support your muscles, tendons, nerves, joints, and bones. We aim to improve your control, balance, mobility, and strength.
Neurological physiotherapy rehabilitation is a specific area that requires extensive experience and qualifications. We take steps to support your recovery or maintenance if issues affect your brain, spine, or nervous system, in an effort to help your balance, movement, and independence.
Injuries to soft tissues, joints, and nerves are common and may significantly impact your life. Recovery should concentrate on relevant exercise strategies, functional movement patterns, manual therapy, and environmental adaptations.
We are committed to helping you get back to work safely and comfortably. We provide:
We value real-world tasks, task-oriented assessments, and practical, relevant, hands-on support, which is why we deliver physiotherapy services in your workplace.
We aim to minimise stress by providing reports to your approved workplace rehabilitation provider, employer, and healthcare team.
Our team is dedicated to supporting your specific needs with our extensive, evidence-based experience.
Returning to work after an injury does not have to be an isolating, overwhelming experience. With Active Recovery’s unique approach, you may be able to find your way back to work sooner than you think. Call us to make an appointment or book online.
