Industrial Rehabilitation & Injury Prevention
Protect Your Workforce and Support a Safe Return to Work
When workplace injuries happen, productivity suffers—but more importantly, people suffer. That’s why our Industrial Rehabilitation and Injury Prevention program is designed to reduce injury risk and accelerate worker recovery using evidence-based care and hands-on education.
Whether you’re an employee, employer, or case manager, our two-tiered program helps workers return stronger—while preventing future injuries before they occur.
What Is Industrial Rehabilitation?
Industrial rehabilitation bridges the gap between injury treatment and job performance. This program helps injured employees return to work quickly and safely, while also offering preventive strategies to reduce the risk of future injuries.
Our therapists design recovery and education plans around the physical demands of each job. We coordinate closely with referring physicians and employers to ensure the plan meets the unique needs of the worker and workplace.
We combine proven therapy techniques, functional training, and advanced tools like Neubie electrical stimulation and HRV therapy to restore strength, flexibility, and confidence.
How Does Industrial Rehab Help?
From injury prevention to return-to-work planning, our program supports long-term recovery and workplace safety.
- Reduce Injury Risk and Workers’ Compensation Claims
Educational sessions held at our clinic help employees learn proper lifting, posture, and ergonomic strategies—helping them avoid common workplace injuries. - Restore Strength and Functional Mobility
We tailor each therapy plan to the employee’s job requirements to ensure a safe, confident return to work. - Minimize Time Away from Work
Aggressive but safe rehab protocols help injured workers recover faster and reduce downtime. - Improve Workplace Communication
