Our Key Services

Ergonomic Assessments

Ergonomic assessments involve an assessment of an employee at his or her workstation, followed by education and workstation adjustments aimed at improving comfort and productivity, as well as reducing the risk of injury. 

​When we perform ergonomic assessments, due to our experience as Physiotherapists, we always take into account any injuries or symptoms that your employee reports to us. This ensures that any workstation adjustments or recommendations we provide are tailored specifically to the needs of that employee. 

We offer ergonomic sweeps, which are brief preventative ergonomic assessments for an entire office, or individual ergonomic assessments, which are more thorough assessments indicated for injured employees or those with a medical certificate requesting an ergonomic assessment.​

Manual Handling Training

The focus of our manual handling training sessions is to help your employees understand how manual handling injuries occur, so that they can better protect themselves when performing manual tasks at work. 

We deliver our manual handling training sessions onsite at your workplace. Our training sessions are practical and highly interactive, teaching your employees the skills that they need to perform manual tasks in a safer manner. 

Our manual handling training sessions are not generic. Instead, we tailor our training to focus on the specific manual handling tasks that your employees perform at work, thereby making it as specific as possible to your workforce.

Recently we have had Jordan from The Ergonomic Physio come out and do both ergonomic assessments for our admin team and manual handling training for all of our educators. Not only is Jordan professional, knowledgeable and thorough, he also came up with innovative ideas and solutions when working with our team, who have different manual handling needs, as they work with children and not in an office. Jordan then supported us with sourcing the best equipment to meet our needs. On top of all of this Jordan is also extremely friendly and personable. I couldn’t recommend him and The Ergonomic Physio highly enough
