Apex Therapy Services and COVID-19

What we do

Based in Manitoba, Apex Therapy Services offers a wide range of services to businesses and individual clients that can assist with maintaining physical and mental health at work.

Why do I need an Occupational Therapist (O.T.)?

Most individuals acknowledge some level of pain associated with being at work – whether this be minor or more significant pain from an injury or illness. An OT is able to accurately assess the work environment and provide practical, ergonomic strategies for positive change. This can involve body positioning/techniques, changes to the work environment/workstation, educational workshops, and other strategies that will make a difference!

What's New

Exposure Therapy - Working in collaboration with the client and employer, an exposure therapy program designed by an Apex OT will assist a person on leave from a mental illness to return to his/her regular daily activities.
