Work Injury Rehabilitation at Boise Physical Therapy 180
Whether your injury resulted from a sudden workplace accident, years of repetitive tasks, or daily postural strain, the team at Physical Therapy 180 is here to help you recover your strength and return to work safely.
At our clinic, we don’t differentiate between someone injured on a field and someone injured on the job. We proudly refer to our workplace patients as “industrial athletes.” Whether your job is highly active or entirely sedentary, it places specific, repetitive demands on your body. Over time, faulty posture and improper movement patterns can lead to debilitating injuries in the neck, jaw, back, shoulders, forearms, wrists, and hands.
Our Phased Return-to-Work Blueprint
To get you back to your full work duties as quickly and safely as possible, we design a customized rehabilitation program that progresses with your recovery:
- Phase 1: Pain Management & Tissue Healing: We begin by targeting the specific injured tissues using hands-on manual therapy and gentle modalities to rapidly reduce acute pain and inflammation.
- Phase 2: Functional Job Conditioning: Once your pain is managed, we slowly progress your exercises to mimic the exact high-level physical activities, lifting, or endurance required for your specific job.
- Phase 3: Ergonomic Retraining & Prevention: Using our advanced training in ergonomics, we analyze your daily work tasks and teach you biomechanically safer ways to move, sit, lift, or stand—drastically reducing your risk of future re-injury.
Seamless Workers’ Comp Coordination
We understand that navigating a workplace injury involves a lot of moving parts. Just like our auto accident cases, the team at Physical Therapy 180 handles administrative communication for you.
We work closely and seamlessly with your physician, insurance adjuster, case manager, and attorney to provide precise documentation and ensure you receive the highest quality of coordinated care possible.
