Workers’ Compensation Rehabilitation

Expert Rehab Tailored for Injured Workers

While workers’ compensation covers medical care and lost wages, many rehab programs take a generic approach that doesn’t address your unique job demands or recovery needs.

At Flex Physical Therapy, we put you first by creating personalized rehabilitation plans based on:

• Comprehensive Injury Assessments: Evaluating your pain, mobility, and functional limitations
• Clear Communication with Your Case Manager: Coordinating with doctors, insurers, and employers to avoid delays
• Job-Specific Functional Rehab: Rebuilding the strength and movement needed for your specific work tasks

Your recovery is our priority—we focus on helping you return to work safely and confidently, minimizing the risk of reinjury.

Comprehensive Rehabilitation Services

Physical Therapy for Full Recovery
Our programs restore movement, reduce pain, and rebuild strength through manual therapy, targeted exercises, job-specific training, and pain relief techniques like heat, ice, and electrical stimulation.

Ergonomic Workplace Assessments
We evaluate and adjust your work environment to prevent reinjury by optimizing workstation setup, tools, and equipment. We also teach proper lifting and movement techniques and recommend adaptive aids when needed.

Transitional Work Programs
Gradual return-to-work plans reduce reinjury risk. We offer modified duty assignments, job simulation exercises, and collaborate closely with your employer to ensure a smooth transition.

Workers’ Compensation Support
We manage the paperwork and approvals for your therapy, communicate progress to case managers and employers, and help coordinate workplace accommodations—so you can focus entirely on healing.
