Montreal Chiropractic Care for Work-Related Musculoskeletal Pain

Work. We all must do it. Everyone’s job requires posture(s) that may trigger 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 can help!

TREATING AND PREVENTING WORKPLACE MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN

Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is confident in its skill to alleviate and handle 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 often 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 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 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 manages 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 advice.  We appreciate researchers’ description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful conditions brought on by too little utilization 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 benefit of specific, individualized, resistance strengthening exercises in the workplace to reduce pain, fatigue, and discomfort in worker’s neck and upper extremities. (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!
