is a highly structured, goal-oriented, measurable outcome-based,
treatment program that uses real or simulated work activities
to restore physical and vocational function.
Benefits include:
- Improved range of motion, strength and endurance

workplace tolerance

- Swift and safe return to work
- Functional capacity evaluations to assist in establishing return to work standards
