Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) in the Philippines is commonly treated with a combination of physiotherapy and ergonomic measures, aiming to alleviate pain and prevent further damage. Physical therapy includes massage, heat or cold applications, and stretching exercises. Ergonomic modifications focus on improving workplace conditions to minimize stress on affected body parts.
The Philippines' healthcare system is a mix of public and private facilities. RSI treatment costs vary widely; a typical physiotherapy session can cost PHP 1000-3000 (approx. USD 20-60), while ergonomic equipment may add to the overall expense.
