Common Workplace Injuries We Treat

No two jobs place the same demands on the body. We commonly help patients experiencing:


  • Lower back pain

  • Shoulder pain
  • Sciatica
  • Muscle strains

  • Repetitive strain injuries

Whether your symptoms developed suddenly or gradually over time, we'll work to identify the underlying cause.

Physically Demanding Jobs

Construction workers, warehouse employees, landscapers, mechanics, healthcare professionals, and many other workers perform physically demanding tasks every day.



These activities may include:

  • Heavy lifting
  • Repetitive bending
  • Twisting
  • Carrying equipment
  • Climbing
  • Reaching overhead
  • Prolonged standing

Over time, these repetitive movements can contribute to injuries involving the muscles, joints, ligaments, and spine.

Many headaches actually begin with tension or dysfunction in the neck and upper spine.


Similarly, nerve irritation in the lower back can contribute to:


  • Sciatica
  • Tingling
  • Numbness
  • Leg pain
  • Weakness


By identifying the underlying source of your symptoms, chiropractic care may help reduce pressure on irritated nerves while improving spinal function.
