Onsite Physiotherapy

Our mission is to prevent work-related injuries in Australian workplaces.

What is onsite physiotherapy?

Onsite physiotherapy is a workplace service where a registered physiotherapist provides treatment, injury prevention, and ergonomic assessments directly in the workplace.

This allows employees to receive timely care, which reduces lost productivity and helps prevent minor issues from becoming costly, long-term injuries.

Services provided include musculoskeletal assessments,  treatments, manual therapy, exercise programs, risk assessments and workplace education to promote a safer and healthier workforce.

How often should onsite physiotherapists attend our workplace?

This is dependent on the number of employees in your business and rate of injuries. 2-3 hours once per week is a good starting point to ensure injuries can be assessed in a timely manner. However, our services are flexible and can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your business.
