Whether you work an office job or physical labor, there is always the chance of getting injured at work. In San Jose, we see a lot of sedentary jobs that sometimes cause injuries prompting worker’s compensation claims. Recovering from a work-related injury can be extremely stressful and takes time depending on how severe you were injured.
At MASJ, we have an unbiased focus on your recovery which helps expedite your rehabilitation because your health and quality of life are our top priority. We answer to you and no one else.
Common workplace injuries happen due to a slip, trip, or fall. These injuries can have very minor impairments like bruises or scraps. Sometimes accidents at work can get really nasty and end up with broken bones, cuts, or sprains. Injuries like this may sound minor but still cause a lot of pain if something else in the body has shifted causing a secondary problem. We do a full assessment from head to toe to make sure all pain points are evaluated.
Workers Comp can take forever to process claims, get the help you need now for a faster recovery.
Another big cause of workplace injuries are from heavy machinery. These massive equipment are pretty dangerous by themselves, but coupled with machinery missing its protective guards and you have an almost deadly workplace. There is already an insanely long list of accidents including heavy machinery that have taken arms, fingers, and even eyes. While we try to do our part to have a safe environment at work, machines can fail and accidents happen. No matter what your accident was, you are not alone in your recovery. We are here to help you get to your optimal performance and recover from the injury.
Getting back to work is important, not just for the employer but for the employee too. Much like physical therapy, our treatment plans can help you get back to normal quicker than without treatment.
The plans are designed to restore endurance, coordination, and flexibility back to what it was before the injury. While everybody is different, it will depend on the initial assessment and progress of treatment to determine the time to recover. This comprehensive therapy for work injuries we conduct can help people heal without the need for surgeries in most cases.
Repetitive stress and overexertion injuries are growing as more people take on more tasks. In San Jose and the Bay Area, we can overdo it on our workload. Very common injuries seen at work are excessive stress due to over straining the mind and body.

In extreme cases of massive stress brought on by a work environment can permanently inhibit a worker from doing their job. Since stress can impair judgment, it can cause injuries. Improper lifting of objects, repetitive tasks, and the inability to take a break can cause injury without even knowing it. This can start to wear down the body and cause problems with muscles, tendons, and even your back. A stressed mind can put a strain on the body, get it back with our treatment plan!
MAT or Muscle Activation Technique is very helpful when it comes to recovering from injuries. A lot of therapies will have you get a painful or tense area massaged, but this can make things much worse. This will remove the natural protection the body has put there to protect the real problem which can even injure the area further. MAT treatment focuses on treating the real problem first, which will then let the area remove its natural protection over time without the risk of more injury. Reducing pain and giving the injury opportunity to recover faster.
