Work-related injuries are common. Whether a job entails sitting all day or moving around, this repetitive movement, or lack of movement, increases a person's chance for injury. Chiropractic treatment has benefits for people who have active careers, and for ones who are more sedentary throughout the day.
Repetitive movement may lead to injury. If the body is not in proper alignment, the movement may cause the joint to wear down. This will cause a person to compensate in other areas of the body, which increases the chance for injury.
Standing all day in one place compresses the spine and puts pressure on a person's hips, ankles and feet. Chiropractic adjustments help to decompress the spine. Chiropractors also adjust extremities (ankles, wrists, etc.) to relieve pressure on the joints.
Sitting all day causes muscles to tighten and eventually shorten in length. Chiropractic care uses a holistic approach, therefore stretching techniques are a fundamental part of treatment.
