What is a Work Injury?
A work injury refers to any injury sustained while performing job-related tasks or in a workplace environment. These injuries can range from minor strains to severe trauma, often impacting your ability to perform daily activities and work duties.
When an injury occurs, scheduling an appointment with a physiotherapist is crucial. Early intervention can reduce recovery time and help you regain your strength and confidence.
