Chronic Injury Program (CIP)
When pain continues beyond the expected healing period, recovery can become more difficult physically, psychologically and socially. Many people living with long-term musculoskeletal injuries experience ongoing pain, reduced movement and uncertainty about their ability to return to work or daily activities.
Navigator Group’s Chronic Injury Program (CIP) provides structured, evidence-based support for people living with chronic musculoskeletal pain.
What is Chronic Injury?
Chronic injury or chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) pain refers to pain that continues for more than 12 months after the initial injury. It often involves a mix of physical, psychological and lifestyle factors that make recovery more complex.
Navigator Group’s Chronic Injury Program is a coordinated rehabilitation pathway that focuses on the whole person, not just their symptoms.
We aim to improve physical function, reduce pain and strengthen psychological resilience to support sustainable recovery and return to life and work.
Who can the Chronic Injury Program help?
CIP is designed for individuals who:
Are experiencing ongoing or chronic musculoskeletal pain (typically beyond 72 weeks post-injury)
Have reached a plateau in recovery or rely heavily on passive treatments
Experience emotional distress, anxiety or frustration related to prolonged pain
Have reduced physical function or difficulty performing work-related tasks
Would benefit from a multidisciplinary approach that addresses both body and mind
Are looking for a goal-oriented rehabilitation program that leads to real outcomes
