TREATING AND PREVENTING WORKPLACE MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN

Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is confident in its skill to alleviate and handle work-related musculoskeletal pain for our Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients. Not too surprisingly, 81.7% of office workers in one study had musculoskeletal pain in at least one area. Back pain was the most often experienced pain for 54.8%. Neck and shoulder pain followed. Interestingly, musculoskeletal system pain was seen as high in office workers whose physical activity levels were reported as low. 58.5% of these workers reported being “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 reducing pain for office workers. (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic values the optimism this brings for our Fernandina Beach back and neck pain patients!

WHAT EXERCISE INTERVENTIONS WORK?

Amelia Chiropractic Clinic manages work-related pain according to the guidelines of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which incorporates gentle spinal manipulation alongside exercise, nutrition and other recommendations.  We appreciate researchers’ description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful issues brought on by inadequate usage of the musculoskeletal system throughout the work day. Exercise, education, ergonomic direction, massage are pretty usual methods of dealing with and trying to prevent pain. Most recommendations 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 the neck and upper extremities of workers. (3) That’s a good idea. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic sees the value in taking care of oneself at home and in the workplace!
