Occupational Health Services

Are aches and pains costing your business?

  • Repetitive strain (RSI)
  • Neck strain
  • Back pain
  • Sore joints
  • Postural problems

In severe cases these conditions can lead to litigation.

PEAK Physiotherapy offers a portfolio of occupational health services for employers which aims both to prevent these conditions from occuring and also to rapidly return affected employees to work.

Musculoskeletal assessments - examination of a patient to identify causes of problems and develop specific treatment programmes.
