Suffering from a work-related lifting injury? Our Tualatin chiropractors, Dr. Daniel Lujan and Dr. Joshua Pettigrew, offer chiropractic care to treat these types of injuries and help patients find relief. Discover how chiropractic care can help you heal from work-related lifting injuries you may experience on the job.

Injuries Poor Lifting Technique Can Cause

Your back is most likely going to take the biggest hit due to poor lifting technique. You may also hurt your neck, hips, spinal discs, and various joints involved in lifting. Sudden injuries are often muscle strains or sprains in the lower back, a slipped disc, or a herniated disc. If you repeatedly practice improper lifting technique, you can develop sciatica, wear down your back, and wear down your joints, leaving you with chronic pain, loss of range of motion, and reduced quality of life.

How Tree City Chiropractic Helps With Lifting Injuries

In addition to prescribing home exercises and stretches, we have three effective ways to help you get out of pain fast and help your body heal:

  • Chiropractic Care: We can perform spinal and extremity adjustments as needed to realign your spine, take pressure off of nerves, reduce inflammation, and restore range of motion.
  • Massage Therapy: Massage therapy excels at helping your muscles relax, breaking up scar tissue, and improving blood flow, which means faster healing.
  • Adjunctive Services: We offer ultrasound therapy, heat therapy, e-stim, and more for immediate pain relief, inflammation reduction, and helping your body heal itself.
