WORK PLACE INJURIES

RSI - is known as repetitive strain injury, and has been formally recognised as a horrible condition where the body's muscles do not cope with constant repetition of a single constricted movement.

Physiotherapy looks at this from a medical point - and is usually referred to as ergonomics. Our physiotherapists are often confronted with painful spinal problems from an incorrect work posture, or nasty hand pains from restricted hand use.

Good treatment can often alleviate such a condition, but it is obvious that prior inspection of a work place - with prevention in mind is a far better remedy that having to treat an injury.

We can arrange for visits to work places for assessment of desks, equipment etc. This can either be done in an advisory role, or a fully documented written report, and will be priced accordingly.
