Work-Related Injuries We Treat

At Raleigh Spine Clinic, we offer non-invasive treatment options for various work-related injuries.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome is frequently seen in office and assembly line workers. By gently manipulating the wrist and hand bones, your chiropractor can relieve pressure on the median nerve, alleviating symptoms of carpal tunnel. They may also perform soft tissue therapy to reduce inflammation and pain.

Lower Back Pain

Chiropractic adjustments and targeted therapies address spinal misalignments (subluxations), muscle imbalances, and joint restrictions caused by manual labor or long sitting hours.

Neck Pain and Strain

Chiropractic treatments alleviate neck pain and strain from computer work or physical labor, improving mobility and preventing future injuries.

Repetitive Stress and Overuse Injuries

These types of injuries are among the most frequent we see and are common in manufacturing construction or any line of work that involves performing the same small tasks repeatedly. To treat overuse injuries, we typically perform spinal adjustments and extremity manipulation to restore joint mobility, reduce inflammation, and enhance nerve function.

Sciatica

Sciatica pain presents in the back, hip, and outer side of the leg when the sciatic nerve is compressed, often as the result of poor posture, prolonged sitting, or heavy lifting at work. Chiropractors address the causes of this compression, such as spinal misalignment or disc herniation, through adjustments and targeted therapies to reduce pain and improve mobility.

Ideal Candidates for Chiropractic Care for Work Injuries

Individuals experiencing the following issues may benefit from chiropractic care:

  • Persistent pain or discomfort in the neck, back, or joints.
  • Limited range of motion due to an injury.
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome or other repetitive stress injuries.
  • Symptoms that have not improved with traditional medical treatment.

What to Expect From Your Work Injury Chiropractor Appointment

During your new patient consultation, the chiropractor will review your medical history, perform a thorough examination, and possibly order X-rays to determine the cause of your pain or discomfort. They’ll use this information to develop an individualized treatment plan. Your plan may include spinal adjustments, decompression, and other therapeutic techniques to address your specific needs. We may also recommend exercises, lifestyle changes, or ergonomic adjustments to help prevent future injuries.

FAQs

  • What makes chiropractic care effective for work injuries?

By focusing on the musculoskeletal system, chiropractors can help restore proper alignment and function, promoting natural healing and long-term relief.

  • Can chiropractic care help prevent future injury?

    Yes, chiropractic care can help prevent future work injuries by promoting proper spinal alignment, increasing joint mobility, and strengthening the supporting muscles. Chiropractors may also recommend ergonomic adjustments and lifestyle changes to minimize the risk of future injuries.

  • How long does it take to see results?

    The duration of treatment and the time it takes to see results will vary depending on the severity of the injury and the individual’s response to treatment. Some patients may experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may require ongoing care to achieve optimal results.

  • Is chiropractic care covered by insurance for work injuries?

    Many insurance plans cover chiropractic care for work injuries, but coverage can vary depending on the specifics of your policy. It’s important to consult with your insurance provider and the chiropractic office to determine the extent of your coverage.
