Work Comp. Hurt at work. Work-related back injury. Neck injury.

trouble that often results. But how? Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation works with individual
Tonawanda workers and is more than ready to work with a

the developed countries use computers on a daily basis. (1)
Questions
Tonawanda employers ask themselves
- how can we cut down on or wipe out work related back
injuries?
- how can acute back pain
injuries be tended to so they don’t become chronic?
- what work techniques can be
installed to lower occurances, cost and productivity loss?
All are great
questions that the Tonawanda chiropractor is ready to tackle.
Plan
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation can help local companies identify potential
and actual back pain and extremity pain employees for preventive care.
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation can help reduce occupational conditions that contribute to back
pain by developing alternative conditions for the company to initiate.
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation can offer training to Tonawanda employees on specific
conditions of the spine and how to prevent exacerbating pain in them. And maybe
most importantly, Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation works
with the injured employee to return to work a confident employee who knows how to best
care for his or her spine and not fear its re-injury. That’s employee
appreciation on the Tonawanda company’s part.
Details of the Plan
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation looks for early signs and symptoms of
musculoskeletal pain like general tension to prevent future pain. (2) Joint
angles – knee, ankle, lumbar spine, hip - required to lift maximum weight and
not injure a spine can be analyzed in the work environment and adapted as
needed. (3) Tonawanda at-risk of re-injury workers may even be
identified when they seem to be ready
for return to work by their muscle responses. Low back injury patients tend
to use their thoracic spine more. (4) Sometimes occupational injury may be related
to something as simple as the clothing and equipment employees use (5) or
having a support group for workers in pain to
share with onsite. (6) Now that can be addressed pretty easily. It may just
take an outsider to come in with “new eyes” and see something that can help.
Reality and Help
Occupational low back pain is the most expensive form of
work disability in terms of actual financial costs as well as social costs and
productivity costs. Persistent low back pain is particularly expensive in
relation to acute and subacute low back pain. (6) In Tonawanda,
chiropractic influence and care at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation benefits both the employer
and the employee. Work-related back pain need not frustrate either.
