Work injuries can occur suddenly or develop gradually from repetitive tasks.

Common workplace injuries we treat:

• Shoulder and rotator cuff injuries
• Knee and hip injuries
• Sprains and strains

At Tonic Physio Milton, we help workers recover and return to their jobs safely. Whether you have a desk job or physical work, we create a plan that gets you back to work without re-injury.
