Repetitive Stress Injuries
The most common forms of injuries on the job are from repetitive stress and overuse. Continually doing small tasks, especially when combined with poor posture will eventually cause problems. Twisting and turning while lifting heavy objects, or even continuous typing often causes acute or chronic pain.
Here are some of the most common repetitive stress injuries:
- Back Ache
- Arthritis
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Tennis Elbow
- Sciatica
- Slipped and/or Herniated discs
Why it's important to seek treatment.
If you are just noticing the signs of the beginning of a repetitive stress injury, or have concerns about developing such an injury, early and preventative chiropractic treatment will ensure your concerns do not develop into something a lot more severe.
Dr. McDiarmid enjoys a high success rate treating these types of injuries using a mild and non-invasive treatment plan.
The quicker you start chiropractic treatment after a work injury, the easier it becomes to avoid complications and pain.
