How soon after a workplace injury should I start rehabilitation?
You should seek evaluation and begin rehabilitation as soon as possible following a work-related injury.

At Back2Health, we offer same-day appointments for injured workers and can often begin treatment on the day of your first evaluation.

This documentation supports your workers’ compensation claim and can be shared with your employer, insurance carrier, and legal representatives as needed.
Can I receive workers’ comp rehabilitation and chiropractic care at the same time?

Our chiropractors and physical therapists coordinate your care to ensure every aspect of your injury is being addressed efficiently and that your treatment plan aligns with your workers’ comp authorization requirements.
What is functional work conditioning and do I need it?
Functional work conditioning is a targeted rehabilitation program designed to rebuild the specific physical capacities required to safely perform your job duties. It bridges the gap between standard injury recovery and safe return to work by addressing the strength, endurance, flexibility, and movement patterns required by your particular occupation. At Back2Health, we offer functional work conditioning as part of our workers’ comp rehabilitation program for patients whose jobs involve physically demanding tasks.
What if my employer disputes my workers’ comp claim?
