Anchorage Chiropractic Therapy Helps Reduce Missed Days at Work

Mulholland Chiropractic Center, LLC sees quite a few patients from the Anchorage area who are hurt on the job. According to the National Safety Council, the most ordinary kind of work injury is musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which involves injuries to the muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments and joints. MSDs account for more than one third of all workplace injuries.

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

These injuries can be stopped by using appropriate lifting techniques, taking many breaks and using ergonomic tools. Employers can also help avoid injuries by giving their employees educational sources on putting a stop to getting hurt at work.
