Work Conditioning
What can we do for you?
Rehab Options Work Conditioning Exercise Physiologists (EP) and Physiotherapists assist injured workers in improving their strength, flexibility, stability and functional conditioning through a gymnasium based exercise intervention. Exercises are developed based on each individual's needs and specific injuries. Feedback is obtained from other treating Allied Health Professionals (e.g. GP's, physiotherapists and specialists) to ensure you are receiving the best possible treatment for your injuries.
Functional conditioning refers to an exercise intervention that is tailored to meet the specific demands of your lifestyle. As such, with a work related injury, Rehab Options Work Conditioning will design and implement exercises that will be specific to your job. For example, if your job requires frequent heavy lifting, our goal will be to:
-
Improve your core stability so as to protect your spine during lifting.
-
Educate you on correct lifting technique to prevent injuries in the future.
-
Increase your upper and lower limb strength to facilitate lifting.
