Physiotherapy in Occupational Health by Barbara Richardson & Alfreda Eastlake

Management, Prevention and Health Promotion in the Work Place

The physiotherapist has an essential role in the workplace and in industry, both in the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries sustained in the work environment and also in the prevention of such injuries through ergonomic advice and planned exercise regimes. This book draws together aspects of good physiotherapy practice in the occupational health context for the practical use of all physiotherapists who are concerned with the protection, maintenance and improvement of the health and well-being of people at work. Topics covered include the ergonomic approach, human movement at work, health education, fitness and health programmes, cumulative trauma injuries as well as occupational stress, organizational issues and the important activities of costing practice and carrying out research. The editors have assembled an impressive range of contributions from experts with specific expertise in various aspects of practice within occupational health.
