Denver Chiropractic Worker’s Compensation /Chiropractic Care for Work-Related Injuries/ Back pain and repetitive motion injuries are the biggest cause of pain, problems and work absenteeism, and the largest expense for companies in the workers compensation arena. Both of these categories of injuries are areas that Dr. Randy Eldridge’s Denver chiropractic office specializes in. Back injuries are an on-going risk in many work environments, especially those that include lifting and/or twisting or other repetitive motions that involve the back or back strain. Back pain is a particular specialty of our Denver Chiropractic office. Our treatment approaches include Active Release Technique, Cold Laser, a spinal decompression flexion/distraction table, massage, and an onsite M.D. for medical evaluations and prescription pain relief if needed. Other work injuries that are common with Denver Chiropractic Workers’ Comp cases include: knee, hip and joint injuries, rotator cuff injuries, and a variety of injuries unique to construction workers. Due to the physical nature of their jobs and the weight of the uniforms and utility belts, many Police Officers and Firefighters suffer from back and neck sprains/strains and sciatica. Because airlines are such big employers in the Denver area, we also treat many airline workers, including back, knee and hip problems common to flight attendants.
