Common Work-Related Injuries and Causes
Work-related injuries can significantly impact your ability to perform your job and maintain you normal functional abilities. Our physiotherapists in Airdrie, AB are experienced in treating various work-related accidents and injuries. Some of the most prevalent work-related injuries include:
- Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSIs):Â Common in office settings, RSIs like carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis result from repetitive tasks and poor ergonomics.
- Back Injuries:Â Prevalent in manufacturing and manual labor professions, back injuries like muscle strains and herniated discs can cause pain, limited mobility, and reduced functional abilities, impacting job performance and quality of life.
- Shoulder, elbow, and hand injuries: Caused by repetitive motions or lifting heavy objects, injuries like rotator cuff tear, tennis elbow, trigger finger, De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, or Dupuytren’s contracture can occur.
- Hip, knee, ankle, and foot injuries:Â These can include various types of injuries such as stress fractures, sprains and strains, dislocations, meniscus tears, and ligament injuries (such as ACL and MCL tears). They can be caused by falls, slips, and repetitive motions such as kneeling, squatting, running, jumping, or standing or walking on hard surfaces.
- Slip and Fall Injuries:Â A leading cause of workplace accidents, slip, and fall incidents can result in fractures, sprains, and contusions. These injuries can lead to temporary or permanent functional limitations, affecting the ability to work and perform daily tasks.

Physiotherapy Solutions for Work-Related Injuries
We are dedicated to helping you recover and regain your strength after a work-related injury.
Upon your first visit, our physiotherapists will thoroughly evaluate your condition, including your medical history. We take the time to understand your medical background, previous injuries, and any pre-existing conditions. This ensures we understand your overall health to create a tailored treatment plan.
Our physiotherapists will perform a hands-on examination to identify any issues with your musculoskeletal system and any areas of pain or discomfort. Next, we’ll check your range of motion and strength. These tests will assess your joint mobility and muscle strength, helping us pinpoint any limitations or imbalances contributing to your condition.
Finally, we will evaluate your functional movement patterns and mobility to identify any deficiencies or compensations that may be affecting your ability to perform daily tasks and activities.
Our physiotherapists use a variety of treatments and techniques, including but not limited to:
- Manual therapy:Â Techniques like joint mobilizations, soft tissue release, and myofascial release help restore normal joint function and reduce pain.
- Therapeutic exercise:Â Customized exercise programs designed to improve strength, mobility, and balance, ultimately enhancing your overall function and quality of life.
- Functional training:Â Activity-specific exercises that prepare you for returning to work or daily activities while minimizing the risk of re-injury.
- Pain management modalities:Â Modalities such as electrical stimulation, ultrasound, and cold laser therapy help control pain and inflammation, facilitating the healing process.
- Preventative approaches:Â Our team incorporates stress management strategies and ergonomic assessments to promote a healthier, more balanced work-life.
