Work Injuries
When a workplace injury happens, both the employee and employer aim for a quick return to work and normal activities. At Calgary RMT, we support this goal and work towards facilitating a swift recovery.
Work Injuries
We can enhance medical treatments with therapeutic massage. When the individual resumes work, even part-time, our mobile massage therapy service can visit your workplace to support their recovery and restore health.
Fatigue
Physical and mental exhaustion from overwork is a recipe for injury. The results can be
- Reduced reflexes, posing risks when operating machinery or driving.
- Impaired judgment affects decision-making.
- Slower response in emergencies.
- Lack of attention to detail, increasing accident risk.
Stress
Everyone faces stress, whether it’s from work-related issues like job security or difficult supervisors, or personal matters such as relationships or family concerns. When staff are preoccupied with these stressors, they are more likely to make mistakes that could lead to serious injury. Additionally, high stress levels can increase the risk of heart attacks or strokes.
Slips and Trips
Kitchen and break room areas, as well as high-traffic zones and poorly lit spaces, often present slip and trip hazards. If an employee has had an accident, massage therapy can aid in faster recovery and help them return to productivity.
Repetitive Motion
Assembly line and computer workers often face carpal tunnel syndrome. Therapeutic massage can reduce pressure on the median nerve, restore sensation in the hands, and alleviate associated discomfort.
Lifting
Incorrect lifting techniques can lead to back injuries, especially with heavy loads. Massage therapy can relieve muscle spasms from such injuries and provide guidance on preventing future issues.
Collisions
This includes accidents like employees colliding, misjudging distances and hitting objects, or stubbing a shin on an open drawer. Massage therapy can assist in relieving discomfort from such incidents.
