Many people in Franklin spend their day at a desk, on calls or on the road. Hours in one position can leave your neck stiff, your shoulders tight, your lower back sore and your wrists aching. Posture-related pain is one of the most common reasons people see a chiropractor.
Common desk-related problems
- Neck pain and "tech neck"
- Rounded shoulders and upper back tightness
- Tension headaches by the end of the day
- Lower back stiffness from sitting
- Wrist and forearm pain from typing and mouse use
How Dr. Joe helps
- Adjustments to the neck, upper back and lower back
- Mid back adjustments for stiffness from sitting
- Shoulder, elbow and wrist adjusting
- Soft tissue work for tight neck and shoulder muscles
Small changes that help
- Raise your screen so the top sits near eye level
- Keep your elbows close to your sides and your wrists straight
- Get up and move every 30 to 45 minutes
- Use a headset for long calls instead of holding the phone with your shoulder
Care that fits your work week
Follow-up adjustments take about 20 minutes, same-day appointments are often available, and we're open Sundays, so care can fit around your schedule.
Frequently asked questions
Can a chiropractor fix my posture?
Adjustments can help the joints and muscles that make good posture uncomfortable to hold. Lasting change also depends on daily habits, and Dr. Joe will point out what matters most for you.
Is a standing desk better?
Changing positions through the day matters more than sitting or standing. Alternating between the two is a good approach.
How long is each visit?
Follow-up adjustments take about 20 minutes.
