workers' compensation physical therapy

Specialized physical therapy for work-related injuries, designed to restore strength, mobility, and function so you can return to work safely and confidently.

About Workers’ Comp Physical Therapy

Personalized physical therapy to help you recover from a work-related injury, rebuild strength and function, and return to your job safely and confidently.

At Impact Physical Therapy, we specialize in workers’ compensation physical therapy designed to help injured employees recover safely, rebuild strength, and return to work with confidence.

Work-related injuries can range from strains and sprains to joint pain, overuse injuries, and more complex orthopedic conditions. These injuries can affect your ability to perform your job, stay active, and maintain your normal routine.

We understand that time away from work can impact your income, responsibilities, and overall quality of life. That’s why our physical therapists create individualized treatment plans based on your injury, job demands, and recovery goals.

Our goal is to reduce pain, restore strength and mobility, improve function, and help you return to work as safely and efficiently as possible.

If you’ve been injured on the job, contact Impact Physical Therapy to learn how our workers’ compensation rehabilitation program can support your recovery.

How Treatment Works

Impact specifically offers return-to-work programming and ergonomic job-function evaluations as part of its workers’ comp services.

Consult / Evaluation

We begin with a one-on-one evaluation to understand your injury, job demands, pain levels, mobility, strength, and functional limitations. From there, we create a personalized treatment plan focused on reducing pain, restoring movement, and helping you safely return to work.

Dr. Eric has totally changed my life and totally changed my perspective. When he says you’re going to be here for an hour, he really works with you for an hour.

Bill

They really work with you to get you better and that community feel is what I always look for in businesses.

Justin

I started coming in only when I was getting hurt. Then I noticed if I came in for prevention, that was the game changer.

Chris

I have been coming here for a month now and my life has changed. They have taught me so much about not being afraid to move and learning how to move.

Connie

It’s so nice that you are one-on-one with a physical therapist and are getting 100% attention from them.

Diane

I did my first ever marathon and my piriformis was killing me. It was hurting with every step. We did cupping, dry needling, and manual work. Standing here right now I feel like honestly, I could run again!

Dr. Elmquist

The reason I enjoy coming to Impact Physical Therapy is that the treatments that you receive here are going to be one-on-one whether or not you come for 30 or 60 minutes.

Nick

Dr. Sarah has excellent communication skills. She was able to listen to me well enough to know where exactly where my greatest pain was.

Marjorie

After one session at Impact, I already felt better than after the months of physical therapy I was doing in San Francisco.
