Whether you are athletic, extremely active, or sedentary, it is likely that you will experience aches and pains at some point in time. The underlying source of your discomfort may be caused by one or more of these factors:

• Overuse/Underuse of muscles
• Sports injuries
• Amateur and professional athletic training and activities
• Trauma, such as auto accidents and falls
• Stress - Stress is everywhere. It is in the workplace and at home. Recent surveys indicate that 80% of all workers feel stress on the job and about 1 million workers are absent each day due to stress. Unanticipated absenteeism due to stress results in huge financial losses for employers — nearly $3.5 million annually. While we can’t help you eliminate all stress from your life, we can help you manage your stress-related symptoms such as muscle tightness or pain, feelings of exhaustion, and difficulty sleeping.
• Repetitive stress injuries (RPI’s) - Repetitive stress injuries generally occur when the same action is performed over and over again. Workers who spend hours at the keyboard are more prone to carpal tunnel syndrome, which results in numbness and discomfort in the wrist. Cervical radiculopathy (disk compression in the neck) is a painful condition which can be caused by frequent cradling of the phone on the shoulder.
