Workplace Injury Care
Whether you’re working from home or commuting to an office, poor ergonomics and repetitive movements can lead to significant discomfort and injury.
At Premier Chiropractic, we’ve noticed that the rise in remote work has created a surge in patients experiencing spinal tension and postural issues due to makeshift home office setups.
Understanding Workplace Injuries
The workplace can create various physical stresses on the body. Long commute times combined with extended periods of sitting can strain the spine, while improper lifting techniques and repetitive movements often lead to acute injuries.
Common workplace-related conditions include cervical strain from prolonged screen time, lower back pain from improper lifting, carpal tunnel syndrome from keyboard use, tension headaches from poor posture, and shoulder impingement from desk work.
Our Approach to Care
At Premier Chiropractic, we conduct thorough biomechanical assessments to understand how work duties affect each patient’s body. This includes analysing movement patterns, postural habits, and workplace ergonomics. By examining the relationship between daily work activities and physical symptoms, they can develop targeted treatment strategies that address both immediate pain relief and long-term prevention.
Prevention and Management
Care plans are customised to each patient’s specific needs and work environment. These comprehensive plans incorporate specific spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment and movement, along with detailed guidance for ergonomic workplace modifications. Patients receive personalised exercise programmes designed to strengthen key muscle groups and improve flexibility. Stress management techniques are also integrated into care plans, as mental tension often manifests in physical symptoms.
