Fernandina Beach Chiropractic Care for Work-Related Musculoskeletal Pain
Work. We all have to work. Everyone’s job requires posture(s) that may elicit pain at one time or another. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic sees the pain! Quite a few Fernandina Beach back pain and neck pain patients who come to chiropractic bring stories of work-related pain. We are here to help!
TREATING AND PREVENTING WORKPLACE MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN
Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is poised in its skill to alleviate and manage work-related musculoskeletal pain for our Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients. Not too startling, 81.7% of office workers in one study experienced musculoskeletal pain in at least one area. Back pain was the most frequently experienced pain for 54.8%. Neck and shoulder pain were after that. Interestingly, musculoskeletal system pain was found to be high in office workers whose physical activity levels were found to be low. 58.5% of these workers were “active” physically, 37.3% were less active, 4.1% were very active. (1) Research shows that in-the-workplace exercise routines were effective in treating musculoskeletal disorders and in decreasing pain for office workers. (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic appreciates the optimism this brings for our Fernandina Beach back and neck pain patients!
WHAT EXERCISE INTERVENTIONS WORK?
Amelia Chiropractic Clinic manages work-related pain within the guidelines of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which incorporates gentle spinal manipulation alongside exercise, nutrition and other advice. We see the value in researchers’ description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful conditions brought on by too little utilization of the musculoskeletal system throughout the work day. Exercise, education, ergonomic direction, massage are pretty usual methods of dealing with and attempting to prevent pain. Most suggestions like this were for workers to do outside of the workplace. Recently, researchers proposed the value of specific, individualized, resistance strengthening exercises in the workplace to reduce pain, fatigue, and discomfort in worker’s upper extremities and neck. (3) That’s a good idea. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic sees the value in taking care of oneself at home as well as in the workplace!
