Work Injury Chesapeake

Did you know?

    • Work Injuries result in injury to a worker that has both a financial and physical toll.

    • Back pain is responsible for more loss of work time and medical expenses than any other ailment.

    • Neck and back injuries account for more than 90% of work injuries.

    • Chiropractic can help patient's get out of pain and back to work quickly.

Our Chesapeake Chiropractor is very successful at helping people with work injuries. Lower back pain and repetitive stress injuries, including carpal tunnel syndrome, are just two of the more common work-related conditions that our chiropractors regularly treat.

It can be very important to receive care from a chiropractor following a work injury. Proper care can help to relieve pain, and also helps to rehabilitate the affected area. Without proper care it is more likely that long-term pain and degeneration will happen.

 

What can cause a work injury?

Work injuries are often caused or made worse by repetitive things that happen in the work environment. While most people think that work injuries come from large accidents, it is much more likely for a worker to be injured while doing a simple repetitive task. Work related injuries can cause severe and debilitating symptoms such as pain, numbness, and tingling. Injuries can also result in reduced worker productivity, lost time from work, and temporary or permanent disability.

What are the risk factors for work related injuries?

The risk factors for work related injuries are repetitive, forceful, or prolonged exertions of the hands; frequent or heavy lifting, pushing, pulling, or carrying of heavy objects; prolonged awkward postures; and vibration contribute to work related injuries. Our chiropractors are not only skilled of working with work injuries, but they also have experience in dealing with extremity problems such as:

    • Shoulders

    • Knees

    • Wrists

    • Ankles

    • Etc…

“I have experienced moderate to severe lower back and hip pain. I am now pregnant with my third child and the pain had become so intense that there were days I was completely immobile. I had been using Tylenol multiple times per day just to get by with minimal activity. Since seeking chiropractic care, I have been able to tolerate more activity and gave ceased using pain medication. Dr. Chad and his practice have been such an answer to prayer in my life, and I am now able to look ahead to the duration of this pregnancy with hope and faith that my pain can be managed.” -Amber D.

“I began to have extreme neck pain. I didn’t sleep well from tossing and turning, while trying to get comfortable. I then began to notice a bump on my back between my shoulder blades. I had never been to a chiropractor before, so I didn’t know what to expect. Within one to two adjustments I had relief. My neck and back all began to feel wonderful! I was so impressed with Dr. Chad, I made my husband start seeing him and have referred two other people to seek his care. Listen to your body. Don’t ignore it. Open your mind and let Dr. Chad help with the pain and discomfort.” -Alicia K.

“I suffered for two years with chronic chest pain, shortness of breath and dysphagia. I would also experience occasional back spasms that would leave me immobile for hours at a time. I went through twenty-seven different tests all coming back negative and giving no relief. Dr. Chad did what a cardiologist, gastroenterologist, ENT, allergist, and pulmonologist could not- find what was causing my debilitating illness. Dr. Chad goes beyond the call of duty to ensure his patients are on the road to good health. I can’t say enough things about him.”     -Rick J.
