Workers' Compensation/Work Injury

Get back to work quickly & safely.

Due to the escalating costs of work-related injuries, employers, health care providers and insurers are searching for cost-effective methods of treating injured employees. At Physical Therapy Works, we believe early physical therapy intervention with an emphasis on function restoration is one of the most effective ways to approach work related injuries.

Our rehabilitation program is individually tailored to each patient and includes strengthening, pain relief modalities, patient education, a progressive and carefully monitored exercise program, and consistent communication with the referring physician.

Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs)

We eliminate the guesswork regarding your functional abilities and work restrictions. Because of the research component behind the tests involved in the FCE, the test results withstand courtroom challenges - protecting the decision-making professionals. The FCE can also assist with the identification of nonorganic pain behavior and inappropriate illness behavior.

Work Conditioning

In addition to helping build your strength, flexibility, endurance, etc., we design therapies to help get you back to performing the specific tasks required for your job.

Work Hardening

Multi-disciplinary approach with vocational and psychological services provided. Usually appropriate for individuals that have been out of work over 6 months and have multiple deficits that need to be addressed.
