At\u00a0Physiotherapy Matters<\/a> we have been providing Occupational Health Physiotherapy and Wellbeing Services to businesses across the Northeast and Nationally since 2007. We understand the importance of supporting wellbeing at work<\/a> and the effect this can have on employee engagement and productivity.<\/p>\n It is well documented that work is beneficial for health, yet sickness absence due to common physical conditions remains proportionally high in the UK. We aim to take a proactive approach to employee wellbeing with the aim of preventing or reducing the occurrence of ill health in the earliest stages.<\/p>\n We also work alongside employers with our reactive services to support the employer and the employee in assessing and managing fitness to work. Our primary goal is always to improve the employee wellbeing and get them back to full health but a by-product of this is that we also encourage employees back to work in a safe and efficient manner, reducing the associated costs to the business of absence and poor productivity.<\/p>\n Employers are supported in managing employees who may be struggling at work and there is an increase in employee engagement and workplace wellbeing as employees feel more supported through any health conditions.<\/p>\n We have expertise in delivering specialist Occupational Health Physiotherapy<\/a>\u00a0and ergonomic services,<\/a> as well as workplace wellbeing initiatives<\/a> including educational workshops and exercise classes, and comprehensive training programmes<\/a>. All our services are adapted to meet the needs of the business and the employees, ensuring that each customer always gets the best service for them.<\/p>\n
