Work Related Injuries
The Hand and Upper Body Rehabilitation Center is the Erie area’s first choice in treatment of upper extremity workplace injuries.
More than 30,000 workers are injured on the job every day. While some workplace injuries can be traumatic, ranging from sprains and falls to broken bones and amputations, nearly a third of injuries result in chronic musculoskeletal disorders of the muscles, tendons and nerves.
Almost all work requires the use of the arms and hands. The staff at the Hand and Upper Body Rehabilitation Center is uniquely qualified to address your injury. We will work one-on-one with you to design a treatment program tailored to your needs, to improve your abilities after your injury, and to restore your health and peace of mind.
The Hand and Upper Body Rehabilitation Center is recognized by employers and Workers Compensation carriers alike as the premiere therapy facility in the tri-state region. We partner closely with your physician and your case manager to insure you receive the most effective treatment to restore your abilities. Some companies that choose to have their employees receive their medical care from us include:
