TREATING AND PREVENTING WORKPLACE MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN
Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is confident in its ability to alleviate and handle work-related musculoskeletal pain for our Fort Wayne 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 often 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 reported as 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 reducing pain for office workers. (2) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic values the optimism this brings for our Fort Wayne back and neck pain patients!
WHAT EXERCISE INTERVENTIONS WORK?
Aaron Chiropractic Clinic treats work-related pain according to the guidelines of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which incorporates gentle spinal manipulation along with exercise, nutrition and other advice. We appreciate researchers’ description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful conditions brought on by inadequate use of the musculoskeletal system during work. Exercise, education, ergonomic direction, massage are pretty typical methods of dealing with and trying to prevent pain. Most recommendations like this were for workers to do on their own time. Recently, researchers proposed the benefit of specific, individualized, resistance strengthening exercises in the workplace to decrease pain, fatigue, and discomfort in worker’s neck and upper extremities. (3) That’s a good idea. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic sees the value in taking care of oneself at home and in the workplace!
