Expert rehabilitation care, focused on your recovery

At Vital Works Rehab, our ultimate goal is to contribute towards creating transformative pathways to recovery and workplace rehabilitation. Our OT founders, drawing from over 20 years of specialised expertise in injury management and occupational therapy, recognised the critical need for a holistic and personalised approach to supporting workers and employers through complex injury recovery processes. With a deep commitment to empowering individuals to reclaim their professional capabilities and restore their quality of life, we established Vital Works Rehab as a leading provider of comprehensive injury management services across the South West. Our approach seamlessly blends clinical excellence, compassionate care, and strategic workplace integration to support both injured workers and their employers throughout the rehabilitation journey.

Meet the Team

Melissa Meek

Meet Mel, Co-Director at Vital Works Rehab.

Mel holds a Master of Occupational Therapy degree and has extensive experience in the Vocational Rehabilitation space, as well as disability sector. Mel moved to the South West in 2013 and instantly fell in love with the region.

A self-proclaimed coffee addict, Mel ensures she's always well-caffeinated and ready to bring her best to every meeting.

Her adventurous spirit took her across the globe, living and working in Indonesia, Canada, the USA, Central, and South America. An avid snowboarder, Mel's travels weren't without their mishaps—suffering a dual wrist fracture (radius) in Japan, she gained first-hand experience with pain, recovery, and overcoming limitations.

This unique perspective enriches Mel’s compassionate approach to therapy and assisting her clients.
