You'll Miss Fewer Days of Work with Chiropractic Therapy

Linton Spine & Joint Chiropractic Center helps several individuals from the Mt Sterling region that are harmed at work. According to the National Safety Council, the most frequent type of work injury is musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which include trauma to the muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments and joints. MSDs account for more than one third of all workplace injuries.

The most ordinary type of MSD is a strain, which is an injury to a muscle or tendon. Strains can be caused by lifting, pushing or pulling too much weight, or by engaging in repetitive movements. Other typical MSDs involve carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis and back issues.

These injuries can be prevented by using correct lifting techniques, taking many breaks and using ergonomic tools. Employers can also help prevent injuries by giving their employees educational materials on preventing these injuries.
