Back Injury Rehabilitation

Preventing back injuries is a major workplace safety challenge. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than one million workers suffer back injuries each year, and back injuries account for one of every five workplace injuries or illnesses. Further, one-fourth of all compensation indemnity claims involve back injuries, costing industry billions of dollars on top of the pain and suffering borne by employees.

After receiving acute care, one should consider a rehabilitation program to further improve recovery. At Walton Rehabilitation Health System, we offer a Comprehensive Continuum of Pain Services: Walton Pain Center, Work Hardening Program, Outpatient Orthopedic Program, Aquatic Therapy Treatment Program, Functional Capacity Evaluation, as well as Rehab Plus Exercise Program, Massage, and Acupuncture.
