Workplace injuries can affect strength, mobility, and your ability to safely perform job duties. At Realign Chiro Physio & Rehab, we provide structured WorkSafe physiotherapy in Langley designed to support recovery, restore function, and help injured workers return to work safely.
Our physiotherapists focus on evidence-based rehabilitation tailored to your injury, job demands, and recovery goals. Treatment emphasizes progressive movement, functional strengthening, and long-term injury prevention rather than temporary symptom relief.
Physiotherapy plays an important role in workplace injury rehabilitation by addressing both symptoms and the underlying movement limitations contributing to pain or dysfunction.
Following a work-related injury, treatment focuses on restoring safe movement patterns while gradually rebuilding strength and endurance required for daily and job-related activities.
Physiotherapy may help:
Reduce pain and inflammation
Improve joint mobility and flexibility
Restore muscle strength
Improve posture and movement mechanics
Prevent reinjury during return to work
Each rehabilitation plan progresses based on functional improvement and recovery milestones.
Our physiotherapists treat a wide range of workplace injuries, including:
Lower back injuries from lifting or repetitive strain
Neck pain related to posture or sudden strain
Shoulder and rotator cuff injuries
Repetitive strain injuries (RSI)
Muscle and ligament sprains
Joint stiffness and mobility limitations
Your physiotherapist evaluates mobility, strength, pain patterns, and functional limitations related to your work duties.
A rehabilitation program is created based on your injury type and recovery goals.
Treatment progresses through guided exercises, mobility work, and functional strengthening.
Recovery progression aligns with WorkSafeBC rehabilitation goals and safe return-to-work planning.
WorkSafe physiotherapy uses a combination of hands-on treatment and active rehabilitation to support recovery, restore movement, and prepare patients for a safe return to work.
Treatments may include:
✔ Manual Therapy – Hands-on techniques to improve joint mobility, reduce stiffness, and relieve muscle tension.
✔ Therapeutic Exercise & Active Rehabilitation – Progressive strengthening and mobility exercises designed to rebuild function and work capacity.
✔ Shockwave Therapy – Targeted acoustic wave treatment that may help stimulate healing and reduce persistent tendon or soft tissue pain.
✔ Dry Needling – Treatment used to release muscular trigger points, decrease tension, and improve muscle function following injury.
✔ Mobility & Movement Retraining – Correction of movement patterns, posture, and lifting mechanics to reduce strain and prevent reinjury.
✔ Functional Strengthening – Exercises focused on improving tolerance for daily and job-specific activities.
✔ Education & Injury Prevention – Guidance on activity progression, ergonomics, and exercises that support long-term recovery.
✔ Functional & Work Conditioning Rehabilitation – Progressive exercises designed to rebuild strength, endurance, and movement tolerance required for job-specific tasks such as lifting, reaching, standing, or repetitive work activities.
A key component of WorkSafe physiotherapy is preparing injured workers for safe reintegration into their job duties.
Rehabilitation may include:
Functional strengthening exercises
Work-specific movement training
Gradual activity progression
Load tolerance development
Injury prevention education
Treatment progresses at a pace appropriate for healing while supporting sustainable recovery outcomes.
Every workplace injury heals at a different pace depending on the type of injury, physical demands of your job, and individual recovery factors. Physiotherapy focuses on guiding recovery through safe and progressive stages rather than rushing healing.
WorkSafe physiotherapy programs typically progress through several phases:
Treatment focuses on reducing pain, inflammation, and protective muscle tension while restoring gentle movement.
As symptoms improve, rehabilitation introduces mobility exercises and strengthening to rebuild stability and control.
Exercises begin to simulate real-life and work-related movements to improve tolerance for lifting, reaching, standing, or repetitive tasks.
Treatment progresses toward restoring endurance, coordination, and confidence required for safe job performance.
Recovery timelines vary, but structured physiotherapy helps ensure progress occurs safely while reducing the risk of reinjury or prolonged symptoms
Recovery does not end when pain improves. Physiotherapy also focuses on identifying movement patterns and physical stresses that may have contributed to the original injury.
During rehabilitation, physiotherapists may assess:
Lifting mechanics and movement habits
Postural strain related to work tasks
Muscle imbalances or weakness
Joint mobility limitations
Repetitive motion stress patterns
Education and guided exercise programs help patients develop safer movement strategies that support long-term physical health both at work and during everyday activities.
Preventative strategies may include:
Strengthening programs for injury-prone areas
Mobility and flexibility training
Ergonomic education
Workload tolerance progression
Self-management exercises
This proactive approach helps reduce the likelihood of reinjury and supports sustainable return-to-work outcomes.

From your first assessment through each stage of treatment, rehabilitation focuses on improving function, rebuilding tolerance for daily and job-related activities, and helping you return to work safely and comfortably.
Our physiotherapists work closely with each patient to create clear recovery plans, monitor progress, and adjust treatment as healing improves. The goal is not only recovery from injury, but long-term movement health and injury prevention.
