πŸ’» Spend hours on a computer for work or study?

The prevalence of neck pain is higher among office workers than in the general community, with studies suggesting 70% of desk workers report neck pain.

If you're a desk worker, you could be at risk of developing Tech Neck - a growing spinal health concern caused by poor posture and prolonged screen time.

Common symptoms include:
⚠️ Headaches
⚠️ Neck, shoulder, and upper back pain
⚠️ Postural changes and spinal curvature (especially in older adults)

Adjust your thinking: Prevention is the best protection:
βœ… Maintain an upright, relaxed posture
βœ… Take regular movement and stretching breaks
βœ… Set your screen at eye level
βœ… Use an ergonomic chair (knees slightly lower than hips)
βœ… Consider a sit-stand desk to reduce spinal strain

Do you know the modifiable risk factors that trigger WMSDs?

Poorly executed lifting, pushing, pulling or bending, using computers in non-ergonomic workspaces (in an office or at home), poor posture, driving and repetitive strain injuries, and mental stress are the leading activities which can trigger work-related musculoskeletal disorders.

ACA chiropractors provide holistic healthcare and guidance on how to prevent work-related back and neck injuries.

In an independent national survey commissioned by the Australian Chiropractors Association, of more than 1000 Australians, 87% of respondents reported experiencing a work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WMSD).

WMSDs are caused by physical stress, mental stress, repetitive work and poorly set up non-ergonomic workspaces. Conditions like chronic neck and back pain, shoulder stiffness, and headaches are often linked to modifiable risk factors in Australian workplaces.

"Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) – what are they?
A range of inflammatory and degenerative conditions affecting the muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, peripheral nerves and supporting blood vessels, WMSDs may be caused by a single workspace event, but commonly result from repeated harmful workspace activities over an extended period of time.

WorkSpace Week aims to reduce the occurrence and impact of WMSDs caused by physical stress, mental stress, repetitive work and poorly set up non-ergonomic workspaces. Chronic neck and back pain, shoulder stiffness and headaches can be linked to modifiable risk factors in Australian workplaces.

We think every day should be World Spine Day!

Current World Health Organisation (WHO) figures indicate that over 600 million people suffer from low back pain, with that figure expected to rise in the coming decades.

This year’s World Spine Day theme, β€˜Invest in Your Spine,’ is a call to action for everyone to make spinal health a priority. Investment can come in many forms; whether it be booking your next appointment with us or implementing small but powerful daily health habits into your routine.

These habits include:
β€’ Leading an active lifestyle, with at least 30 minutes of daily physical activity
β€’ Sitting properly on ergonomic seating
β€’ Stretching regularly
β€’ Limiting mobile device use
β€’ Maintaining a healthy, balanced diet and staying well hydrated
β€’ Getting 7-8 hours of quality sleep every night
β€’ Taking regular breaks from sitting or repetitive activity

By consistently practising these habits, along with regular chiropractic care, you can enhance your wellbeing and protect your spinal health for the long term.
