Physiotherapy

We work with insurers, insurance brokers, occupational health providers and employers. Referrals typically involve an employee or claimant whose injury or physical ill health is keeping them off work, or making their role difficult to manage, and where treatment would support recovery and a return to work.

Physiotherapy is often one strand of a wider vocational rehabilitation case, arranged where the initial assessment identifies a physical barrier that treatment can address. It is equally available as a single service where a referrer needs a programme of treatment in place without the full case management around it.

On a stand-alone referral, we arrange a programme of treatment with one of our physiotherapists, focused on the individual's recovery and a safe return to work.

Where physiotherapy forms part of a vocational rehabilitation case, it follows the initial assessment, which establishes the barriers keeping the individual from work and the interventions likely to address them. The vocational rehabilitation consultant oversees treatment alongside any other support and liaises with the employer or insurer throughout, so everyone involved is working towards the same outcome.

Where physiotherapy sits within a vocational rehabilitation programme, the recommendations that shape it are set out in the assessment report provided to the insurer or employer, and the consultant keeps the referrer informed as treatment progresses.
