Workplace Injury Physiotherapy
NewLeaf Wellness Centre is a recognized member of the WorkSafeBC preferred provider network, dedicated to aiding workers who have sustained injuries in workplace incidents, offering relief for their symptoms and supporting their journey to complete recovery.
Workplace injuries are common and can arise from a variety of situations.These events often lead to conditions such as ankle and knee strains, shoulder discomfort, backache, tendon issues, carpal tunnel syndrome, concussions, fractures, and various forms of muscle and joint discomfort.
Our experienced physiotherapy professionals have been assisting WorkSafeBC patients for many years. They are committed to guiding you through the process of healing and safely returning to your regular work routine.
At NewLeaf Wellness Centre, we differentiate ourselves by actively addressing injuries through hands-on therapy and cutting-edge treatment methodologies, including IMS or Shockwave Therapy, rather than relying solely on passive treatments and heat application. Employing a graded regimen of tailored rehabilitation exercises plays a pivotal role in enhancing the recovery process and expediting the healing of soft tissues.
Our clinical team boasts an extensive track record of managing work-related injuries and supporting our patients’ recuperation within a secure and holistic environment. Your dedicated physiotherapist will ensure your readiness for light or modified work tasks and will always seek your approval before initiating any scheduled return-to-work strategy.
