What Is Considered A
Work Injury?

It may come as a surprise that the majority of work injuries in Elmhurst are not caused by serious accidents, but rather from overuse injuries. These injuries occur when repetitive stress is placed on certain parts of the body, resulting in pain and discomfort. Unfortunately, millions of dollars are spent each year in the United States to help individuals with this problem. On this page, we will provide you with tips on how to improve your outcome if you have been injured while at work.


Repetitive stress is one of the most common risk factors associated with work injury. Small tasks that involve poor posture, such as twisting and turning while moving boxes or continuous typing in a poor position, can create big problems over time. It's not always the big package that falls on you that causes injury, but rather the small tasks that happen more frequently each day that can lead to many of the injuries. At Elm Chiropractic, we can help you understand how to prevent and treat these injuries, so contact us today.

Highly Effective
Recovery

Chiropractic care has been proven to be highly effective in treating work-related injuries, such as lower back pain and repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome. Misaligned joints and spine can lead to injuries, and misalignments can cause swelling, which in turn can irritate the surrounding nerves and result in multiple problems.


It is important to seek proper care as soon as possible after a work injury to ensure a quick recovery. Chiropractic doctors are trained to assess your condition and provide you with the best treatment options. If additional services are required, our team is happy to provide referrals as needed.

Better Results With
Chiropractic Treatments

Working with a chiropractor is vital if you have a misaligned joint. Unfortunately, many patients are not referred to chiropractors and instead are sent to physical therapy. While physical therapy can be beneficial in some cases, physical therapists are not trained to correct misaligned joints. This can result in a slower and less effective recovery for many patients.
