Work. We all must do it. Everyone’s
job necessitates posture(s) that may elicit
pain at one point or another. Novelli Wellness Center sees the pain! Many Orchard Park, NY back pain and neck pain patients who seek chiropractic bring stories of work-related pain. We can help!
TREATING AND PREVENTING WORKPLACE MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN
Novelli Wellness Center is confident in its skill
to relieve and handle work-related musculoskeletal
pain for our Orchard Park, NY 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 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 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) Novelli Wellness Center welcomes the optimism this brings
for our Orchard Park, NY back and neck pain patients!
WHAT EXERCISE INTERVENTIONS WORK?
Novelli Wellness Center treats 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 advice. We appreciate researchers’
description of work-related musculoskeletal pain disorders as those painful conditions
brought on by inadequate usage
of the musculoskeletal system during work.
Exercise, education, ergonomic direction, massage are pretty usual
methods of dealing with and attempting
to prevent pain. Most suggestions like this were for workers
to do outside of the workplace. Recently, researchers proposed
the value of specific, individualized, resistance strengthening exercises
in the workplace to reduce pain, fatigue, and discomfort in the neck and upper extremities of workers. (3) That’s a promising idea. Novelli Wellness Center sees the value in taking care of oneself at home as well as in the workplace!
