Back To Work (Work Comp)

DID YOU KNOW?

  • Each year, about 1.3 million injuries and illnesses require recuperation away from work beyond the day of the incident.
  • Back disorders account for nearly 25% percent of all injuries and illnesses involving days away from work.
  • The average industrial back injury costs an employer $24,000.
  • The average workers compensation lumbar fusion total cost is over $164,000.
  • A recent study reported that low back pain is highly associated with depression and more than 50% of workers report that their work is affected more than 30 days per year due to back pain.

As these statistics show, back injuries are by far the #1 problem in the workplace. They affect employees of all ages and in every job capacity from heavy industry to retail.

RehabAuthority brings you fast, simple and highly effective solutions

Of course, the best way to deal with a serious back injury is to prevent it from happening in the first place. RehabAuthority's experienced team of specialists will take your health history and measure your strength, range of motion, and endurance using state-of-the-art computerized testing equipment. If these tests show that you are at risk, they will design a custom "prehabilitation" program that will give you increased strength and mobility in just a few therapy sessions. As a result, you will dramatically reduce your risk of suffering a back or neck injury on the job.

Our results speak volumes

It is impossible to prevent every injury. So when they occur, you can trust us to provide rehabilitation that produces amazing results. In fact, most of our back injury patients experience significant improvement in just 1-2 visits, and enjoy complete recovery in an average of just 11-14 visits - and often even less. These results are especially compelling when you consider that too many patients with recurring injuries have endured as many as 50-70 therapy sessions at other rehab facilities without resolving their injury.

This patient-focused program costs you nothing

The RehabAuthority "Back to Work" program is truly focused on meeting your needs. Convenient clinic hours and locations make it easy for you to get the rehabilitation you need. Plus, you'll enjoy one-on-one attention in an environment that is compassionate, encouraging and educational. In most cases, your employer and health insurance will cover the costs for assessment, preventive therapy, as well as rehabilitation...so you can focus on your health and your job.
