Certain work tasks can be a pain in the neck…literally. Some easy exercises and Ashburn chiropractic care could ease 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 problem - work-related neck-shoulder pain. Adding motor control training and ergonomic workspace modification advice for workplace motions and postures brought about positive and sustainable value in decreasing shoulder pain and neck pain. (1) Adding stretching exercises to the everyday routine decreased 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 twice daily every work day (5 days weekly) really helped in the month long program. Further, those who did the exercises less than 3 times a week reported less improvement than those who did 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 experienced neck and shoulder pain for more than 3 months and ranked their pain as 5 or more on a scale of 10 points with 10 being the most painful pain. (2) Imagine what benefit these types of exercises could do for early stage neck and shoulder pain office-working patients!
