What do Ergonomics Physical Therapists do?
Ergonomics physical therapists assess and modify work environments and daily activities to prevent injuries, alleviate pain, and improve comfort and efficiency by optimizing the fit between a person and their workspace or tools.
They evaluate a person’s body and environment, recommend workstation and tool adjustments, teach proper posture and body mechanics, suggest therapeutic exercises, and may provide specialized equipment, such as wrist supports or splints.
