With the shift towards remote work, there has been an increase in the number of people experiencing work-related injuries and conditions associated with long hours spent at a computer. Some common work-from-home and computer-related injuries and conditions that physiotherapy can help with include:
Work-from-home Related Injuries
Neck and Shoulder Pain
Poor posture and prolonged sitting at a desk can lead to neck and shoulder pain. Physiotherapy can help with exercises to strengthen the muscles in the neck and shoulder, and improve posture.
Back Pain
Sitting for long periods can lead to back pain. Physiotherapy can help with exercises to improve core stability, as well as posture and ergonomics to prevent and treat back pain.

Repetitive use of a computer mouse or keyboard can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome, which causes pain and numbness in the wrist and hand. Physiotherapy can help with exercises to strengthen the muscles in the hand and wrist, as well as provide advice on proper ergonomics and workplace setup.

Tennis elbow is a type of repetitive strain injury that can be caused by repetitive use of the mouse or keyboard. Physiotherapy can help with exercises to strengthen the muscles in the forearm, as well as provide advice on proper ergonomics and workplace setup.
