Working at a grocery store can be a big gamble with your musculoskeletal health! I have been in pactice for over seveteen years and have observed that probably the single "worst" job (as far as people having continuous significant joint and muscle problems) can be found within the walls of a grocery store! I can't exactly give you a scientific reason for the situation, but it definitely exists. Those who "stock" have to lift things that have a tendency to be fairly awkward (such as bottles in boxes). Walking around all day on a concrete floor certainly doesn't help the lower back and standing at a register is possibly worse. Although most grocery chains have improved things considerably over the past ten years, wrist and hand problems abound due to repetitive motions associated with "checking."
So, should all you grocery guys and gals walk (or hobble) off the job today? No... just come on in for some corrective Chiropractic care. Most aches and pains due to wear and tear on the musculoskeletal system will abate with gentle, safe spinal manipulation. And the best part is that you can prevent worse problems (like disc disease and arthritis) with regular Chiropractic check-ups. Don't live with pain and don't compromize your future health! Come on in for a No Charge Consultation/Examination (including x-rays if necessary). If you have questions about your particular situation feel free to page me at 703-335-7224 (from 9am until 10pm).
