Work injuries can happen suddenly due to an acute accident, like a slip, fall, or lifting a heavy object, or they can develop gradually over years of repetitive strain. Whether your job involves heavy physical labor or sitting at a desk for hours, workplace stress can cause painful structural imbalances.
Types of Common Workplace Physical Stress
- Acute lumbar strains from improper or heavy lifting techniques
- Repetitive strain injuries (RSIs) such as carpal tunnel syndrome
- Chronic upper back and shoulder pain caused by stationary work environments
- Sudden slips, trips, or falls that misalign the pelvis and spine
