Effective Chiropractic Care For Workplace Injuries

Chiropractic Care For Workplace Injuries | Lakes Chiropractic

When most people think of workplace injuries, they think of warehouses, factories, and loading docs. But the truth is that injuries occur in any line of work (even a desk job).

Slip and fall accidents, overexertion, and muscle strains are some of the most common work injuries in the United States, but there’s one thing they all have in common—they can all be helped by chiropractic care.

Regardless of what stage of recovery you are in, regular chiropractic care is a vital part of addressing your injuries with a drug-free, natural solution that treats the problem right at the source.

Chiropractic Care For Workplace Injuries

Contrary to popular belief, chiropractic care isn’t about “popping” or “cracking” your joints. Rather, adjustments focus on proper alignment of the bones so that your musculoskeletal system can work the way it’s meant to.

Common workplace injuries we treat in our Land O’ Lakes office include:

• Back Pain
• Neck Pain
• Headaches
• Sprains
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• And more!

If you’ve been suffering from the effects of an injury at work, Lakes Chiropractic & Wellness can offer a natural solution to your pain and discomfort.

Faster Road To Recovery

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, work injuries account for an average of 12 days of missed work. This is often due to not receiving proper care soon enough after the accident. Early intervention is key when it comes to chiropractic care for workplace injuries. Immediately following an injury, the body increases the blood flow to the affected area to begin the process of healing. However, misaligned joints can restrict both blood flow and nerves, causing discomfort or even interfering with the healing process.

By making sure your joints are in proper alignment, your body can carry on with the important task of healing itself. And the longer those joints are out of alignment, the harder it is to convince them to stay in their proper place. Studies have shown that regular chiropractic care can reduce missed days of work and allow for faster, more thorough recovery from workplace injuries.

Back To Work

Whether you’re in construction, manufacturing, or a typical 9-to-5, chiropractic care is an essential part of treating (and preventing) workplace injuries. By keeping your body at the optimal level of wellness, you’re not just helping it to heal itself, you’re preventing future pain.
