Chiropractic for Office Workers

woman at desk with low back painOur bodies were designed to move, but if you work in an office environment, whether within a business or from home, you know your current arrangements can work against this.

We’re seated, often for hours at a time, and it can create big problems for us in the form of neck and back discomfort, as well as hip and lower back issues.

At Branchville Family Chiropractic, we see and help people everyday overcome the effects of their office-based careers, removing the interference in their nervous systems and delivering high-quality chiropractic care to patients who want to improve their health and wellness.

Alleviate Your Neck and Back Pain with Chiropractic

When you work in an office, you can experience a commute that keeps you seated for as long as an hour each way. Many of us follow that up with work days that have us behind a desk, seated for eight hours or more, and usually in front of a computer screen.

This work environment compromises the health of your spine and nerve system. Through chiropractic care, Dr. Kim Stetzel will adjust the areas where misalignments and the stresses of our seated position are causing imbalance and producing symptoms like neck and back pain, chronic headaches, or lower back discomfort.

She utilizes a variety of methods for her chiropractic care, including:

  • Chiropractic Biophysics
  • Diversified
  • Gonstead
  • Pierce/Pierce Instrument
  • Thompson Drop Table
  • Toggle Recoil

She’ll also recommend optimizing your workstation and making an effort to move throughout the day with suggested exercises and stretches. As Dr. Kim observes progression in your care schedule, she’ll recommend specific exercises individualized to your health needs, to continue helping your healing process.

We’ll Help You Create a Healthy Environment

Chiropractic care will help alleviate the subluxations or misalignments you’ve endured due to your office work, but Dr. Kim wants to ensure you’re doing everything possible to prevent the continued negative consequences that can come from ergonomically incorrect workstations.

To aid the care, you receive in the office, it’s important to move at least once an hour throughout the day. Moving your monitor, keyboard and mouse so that they are in the correct positions for your body when it’s seated are also crucial steps to take. Finding a seat or cushion which supports you in an upright position, without compromising your lower back and spinal curves is also important.

If you are in a situation where items cannot be moved, Dr. Kim will give you advice on how to mitigate or decrease the stresses that are being placed upon you in your environment.

All of these recommendations will be provided as part of your targeted chiropractic care plan.

Work Without Discomfort

We spend so many hours each week at work, and there’s no reason we need to have pain or discomfort while doing so. Dr. Kim will provide you with an individualized chiropractic plan targeted to your specific needs while providing you with science-based advice to improve your work environment.
