Hands-on care (when appropriate), exercise therapy, and load management tailored to your tasks.

3) Return-to-work planning
We help you progress safely with practical strategies and clear capacity recommendations.

4) Communication & documentation
Where required, we coordinate with your GP, insurer, employer, and rehab provider to keep everyone aligned.
