A workplace injury can throw off your whole routine, from getting through your shift to keeping up at home. Workers comp physical therapy at Complete PT focuses on getting your body moving and functioning again through hands-on, personalized treatment. Our licensed physical therapists work with you one-on-one to build a recovery plan around your injury and your job demands.
What Is Workers Comp Physical Therapy?
Workers comp physical therapy is rehabilitation care for injuries that happen on the job. This can include strains, sprains, repetitive motion injuries, joint pain, or muscle injuries tied to physical work tasks. The focus is on restoring strength, mobility, and function so you can return to your normal activities and job duties as your recovery progresses.
This page covers the physical therapy treatment itself. For questions about your specific claim, carrier, or employer process, your case manager or claims adjuster is the right resource.
