The Benefits of Physiotherapy for Musculoskeletal Work Absence

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are one of the leading causes of work-related absences, affecting employees across various industries. Conditions such as back pain, neck strains, and repetitive strain injuries, which are among the top causes of absence in the UK, can result in chronic pain, discomfort, and reduced mobility. When left unaddressed, MSDs can lead to prolonged time away from work, affecting both employee well-being and workplace productivity.

Physiotherapy offers a range of benefits for employees experiencing musculoskeletal issues, helping to reduce the duration of work absence and promote a faster return to work. Investing in these services can provide significant return on investment by reducing costs associated with absence and lost productivity.

In addition to our online resources and educational webinars, we also offer on-site physio services, clinic-based physiotherapy services nationally, and virtual services. This service can be tailored to the unique needs of your employees and your organisation and can play an essential role in fostering a healthy, productive work environment.
