You'll Miss Fewer Days of Work with Chiropractic Treatment

Dr. Szilagyi sees quite a few individuals from the Harleysville community that are harmed at work. According to the National Safety Council, the most usual kind of work injury is musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which include trauma to the muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments and joints. MSDs account for more than one third of all workplace accidents.

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

These injuries can be stopped by using correct lifting techniques, taking many breaks and using ergonomic devices. Employers can also help put a stop to injuries by providing their employees educational materials on preventing these injuries.
