Faster Work Injury Recovery with Chiropractic Care

Dr. Haycock sees quite a few individuals from the Massillon community who are hurt at work. According to the National Safety Council, the most routine 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 usual type of MSD is a strain, which is trauma to a muscle or tendon. Strains can be caused by lifting, pushing or pulling too much weight, or by repetitive movements. Other typical MSDs involve carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis and back discomfort.

These injuries can be stopped by using appropriate lifting techniques, taking frequent breaks and using ergonomic devices. Employers can also help avoid injuries by giving their employees educational sources on preventing these injuries.
