💻 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:
✅ Maintain an upright, relaxed posture
✅ Take regular movement and stretching breaks
✅ Set your screen at eye level
✅ Use an ergonomic chair (knees slightly lower than hips)
✅ Consider a sit-stand desk to reduce spinal strain

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.

Life gives us choices, and every choice comes with its own challenges. Staying the same is hard—waking up stiff, battling that constant ache, or pushing through the day without energy. But choosing to prioritise your health? That’s hard too—making the time, showing up, and committing to change.

Here’s the truth: both are difficult. The difference is, one keeps you stuck, and the other moves you forward.

Chiropractic care is about choosing the “difficult” that leads to strength, mobility, and vitality. It’s about saying no to the pain of staying the same and yes to a healthier, more empowered version of you.

So, what will you choose today? Staying where you are—or taking a step toward feeling your best?

✨ We’re here to help you make that choice easier. Appointments are available this week, and we’d love to help you move forward. DM us or book online to take that first step. Your future self will thank you.
