Symptoms of Work Injury
Work injuries come in many forms, but a few symptoms show up over and over again. Lower back pain is hands down one of the most common issues we see, especially after lifting heavy objects or working in awkward postures. You might also notice pain in your shoulders, knees, or even neck, depending on how and where the injury occurred. Symptoms can range from sharp, sudden pain to deep aches that worsen over time. If you’re feeling pain that radiates down your glutes or legs from your lower back, it could mean a more serious nerve involvement that needs careful attention.
Chiropractic Treatment for Work Injury
When it comes to diagnosing work injuries, we don’t just guess—we listen carefully. We start by digging into your full story: how the injury happened, any past injuries you might have had, and the type and location of your pain. Then we move into a thorough physical examination, orthopedic testing, and sometimes imaging like X-rays or MRIs to support our findings. Treatment begins with chiropractic care to restore joint motion, relieve pressure, and rebalance your body. Depending on your case, we may also incorporate massage therapy, rehab exercises, and other physiotherapy modalities to speed healing safely.
Chiropractic Care for Work Injuries
Every work injury is different, which means your care plan should be too. Right after an injury, we usually recommend more frequent visits—two to three times a week—to quickly reduce inflammation, restore motion, and manage pain. As you heal, we gradually space out visits until you reach full recovery. Along the way, you’ll get chiropractic adjustments, therapeutic massage, laser therapy, and guided physical rehab. While work injury treatment has some extra guidelines we must follow compared to car accident care, our approach is still the same: get you back to moving, working, and living at your best.
Other Symptoms of Work Injury
Not every work injury comes from lifting or falling. If your job keeps you glued to a desk or computer all day, you might deal with repetitive strain injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome, tension headaches, or chronic neck and shoulder pain. Poor posture, long hours at a screen, or repetitive tasks like typing can slowly build into serious issues. Even if you don’t remember a single “injury moment,” small habits over time can cause big problems—and chiropractic care can help correct those imbalances before they get worse.
