Work Injury Freehold

Did you know?

  • Industrial 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 Freehold chiropractors are 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?

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 Freehold chiropractors are not only skilled at working with work injuries, but they also have experience in dealing with extremity problems such as:

  • Shoulders
  • Knees
  • Wrists
  • Ankles
  • Etc…
