Montreal 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. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic sees the pain! Many Montreal back pain and neck pain patients who seek chiropractic bring stories of work-related pain. We are here to help!
TREATING AND PREVENTING WORKPLACE MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is poised in its skill to relieve and manage work-related musculoskeletal pain for our Montreal chiropractic patients. Not too startling, 81.7% of office workers in one study had musculoskeletal pain in at least one area. Back pain was the most frequently experienced pain for 54.8%. Neck and shoulder pain followed. Curiously, 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 interventions were effective in addressing musculoskeletal disorders and in decreasing pain for office workers. (2) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic appreciates the optimism this brings for our Montreal back and neck pain patients!
WHAT EXERCISE INTERVENTIONS WORK?
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic treats work-related pain within the guidelines of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which integrates gentle spinal manipulation along with exercise, nutrition and other recommendations. We appreciate researchers’ description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful conditions induced by inadequate usage of the musculoskeletal system during work. Exercise, education, ergonomic direction, massage are pretty typical methods of dealing with and attempting to prevent pain. Most suggestions 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 reduce pain, fatigue, and discomfort in the upper extremities and neck of workers. (3) That’s a good idea. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic sees the benefit of taking care of oneself at home and in the workplace!
