Chiropractic care continues
to be one of the top treatment options for work related injuries.
Lower back pain and repetitive stress injuries, including carpal
tunnel syndrome, are just two of the more common work related
conditions we treat on a regular basis.
Many work related injuries can be avoided simply by practicing
a few simple rules on the job.
- Remember the importance of
ergonomics. Make sure your chair and workstation are set up
in a way that
minimizes any unnecessary pressure or demands on your body.
- Be sure to use the proper form when lifting heavy boxes or other objects.
Be sure you are bending your legs and not your back when lifting.
- Be sure to keep your work area neat and organized.
