April 09, 2019

How many times do we talk about something as a pain in the neck? Ever call your job a pain in the neck? (Be truthful! Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers will not tell your boss!) Certain work tasks may well be a pain in the neck…literally. Some simple exercises and Baton Rouge chiropractic care could relieve your neck pain gently and well.

PAIN IN THE NECK OFFICE WORK

Researchers have a formal name for your job’s pain in the neck issue - work-related neck-shoulder pain. Adding motor control training and ergonomic workspace modification advice for workplace motions and postures lead to positive and sustainable value in decreasing shoulder pain and neck pain. (1) Adding stretching exercises to the everyday routine lessened neck and shoulder pain and better neck function and quality of life for office workers with chronic moderate-to-severe neck pain or shoulder pain. This study documented that the extra training in how to do neck and shoulder stretches a couple times a day every work day (5 days a week) truly helped in the month long program. Further, those who did the exercises less than 3 times per week got less improvement than those who performed them more than 3 times a week. Doing the neck and shoulder exercises better improved neck function and these patients’ quality of life scores. And this study was with chronic neck pain and shoulder pain patients, those who have suffered with neck and shoulder pain for more than 3 months and rated their pain as 5 or more on a a 10 point scale with 10 as the number for the most painful pain. (2) Imagine what good these kinds of exercises could do for early stage neck and shoulder pain office-working patients!
