Chiropractic Treatment Patients Miss Less Work

Buffalo Family Chiropractic Wellness, P. C. helps a lot of folks from the Buffalo region who are hurt while working. According to the National Safety Council, the most frequent 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 frequent 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 common MSDs involve carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis and back issues.

These injuries can be avoided by using correct lifting techniques, taking several breaks and using ergonomic devices. Employers can also help prevent injuries by providing their employees educational sources on putting a stop to getting hurt at work.
