Injured at work? Here's how WCB physiotherapy works
If you're hurt on the job in Alberta, your treatment is covered by the Workers' Compensation Board (WCB Alberta). The process at Nolan Hill Physiotherapy & Massage is straightforward:
- Report the injury to your employer as soon as possible
- File a WCB worker report (your employer files theirs too) and see a physician if needed
- Book your physiotherapy assessment — bring your claim number and date of injury
- We handle the rest — direct billing to WCB, initial and progress reports, and communication with your case manager and physician
You don't need to wait for your claim to be fully adjudicated to be assessed — early treatment is one of the strongest predictors of a smooth recovery and a shorter claim.
Workplace injuries we treat
- Back injuries from lifting, twisting, and repetitive bending
- Shoulder injuries — rotator cuff strains and overhead-work overuse
- Knee and ankle injuries from slips, trips, and falls
- Repetitive strain injuries — tendonitis, carpal tunnel symptoms, tennis elbow
- Neck injuries and concussions from impacts and falls
- Crush injuries and post-fracture rehabilitation
Rehab built around your job, not a template
A drywaller, a nurse, and a warehouse picker with the same back strain need different programs. We assess the physical demands of your role — lifting loads, postures, repetition, standing hours — and build your rehabilitation to those demands. As you progress, we provide objective updates that support graduated return-to-work plans and modified duties, keeping your employer and WCB informed at every step.
Why early treatment matters
The data is consistent: workers who begin active rehabilitation early return to work sooner, with less chronic pain and fewer recurrences. If you've been putting off treatment because of paperwork worries — don't. Call 587-355-3555, give us your claim number, and we'll take it from there.

Does WCB cover my physiotherapy completely?
Yes — for accepted claims, WCB Alberta covers your physiotherapy treatment and we bill them directly. You pay nothing out of pocket.
