New York City Chiropractic Care for Work-Related Musculoskeletal Pain
Work. We all have to do it. Everyone’s job requires posture(s) that may trigger pain at one time or another. Rosenberg Wellness Center sees the pain! Quite a few New York City 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
Rosenberg Wellness Center is confident in its skill to alleviate and manage work-related musculoskeletal pain for our New York City 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 were after that. Curiously, musculoskeletal system pain was seen as high in office workers whose physical activity levels were found to be 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 decreasing pain for office workers. (2) Rosenberg Wellness Center welcomes the optimism this brings for our New York City back and neck pain patients!
WHAT EXERCISE INTERVENTIONS WORK?
Rosenberg Wellness Center manages work-related pain within the guidelines of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which incorporates gentle spinal manipulation along with exercise, nutrition and other recommendations. We see the value in researchers’ description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful issues brought on by too little use of the musculoskeletal system throughout the work day. Exercise, education, ergonomic direction, massage are pretty typical ways of dealing with and attempting to prevent pain. Most recommendations like this were for workers to do outside of the workplace. Recently, researchers suggested 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 is a good idea. Rosenberg Wellness Center sees the benefit of taking care of oneself at home as well as in the workplace!
