City Physiotherapy Corporate Services

City Physiotherapy aims to assist corporations in minimising the exorbitant cost of musculoskeletal ill health, and maximising the efficiency of their staff.

National surveys consistently highlight the staggering cost of ill health and injury to industry and organisation. In Britain annually 192 Million days are lost to ill health or injury. This amounts to £10.7 billion pounds in lost productivity. (CBI 2000.)

The largest group of these (60%) complains of musculoskeletal injuries (HSE 1998), and these are disproportionately expensive, with back pain alone accounting for £5.1 billion annually. (CSAG 1994.)

The utilisation of physiotherapy to deal with musculoskeletal issues in the workplace has been shown to reduce the duration of an injury and chronicity (Di Fabio et al, 1995; Ehrmann-Feldman et al, 1996.), thus reducing the sickness absence involved with that injury (Webster and Snook, 1994).

Further to these savings an on-site service (available in larger companies) or priority booking scheme at the clinic (for smaller or geographically dispersed companies) can markedly reduce the time taken for employees to attend treatments.

City Physiotherapy will provide a solution for your staff’s postural and musculoskeletal issues in the workplace and enhance their return-to-work and productivity.
