You'll Miss Fewer Days of Work with Chiropractic Treatment

Dr. Jung treats quite a few folks from the Pinole area that are hurt while working. According to the National Safety Council, the most ordinary kind of work injury is musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which include injuries to the muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments and joints. MSDs account for more than one third of all workplace accidents.

The most usual type of MSD is a strain, which is an injury to a muscle or tendon. Strains are caused by lifting, pushing or pulling too much weight, or by repetitive movements. Other common MSDs involve carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis and back discomfort.

These injuries can be avoided by using appropriate lifting techniques, taking frequent breaks and using ergonomic tools. Employers can also help prevent injuries by providing their employees educational sources on preventing these injuries.
