How to Keep Yourself Healthy: Reducing the chance of repetitive strain injury and what to do if you're injured.
Long time chiropractor, Gail Karvonen, D.C. and chiropractic assistant/massage therapist Cydney Wilkes, LMT, will be presenting this workshop. If time allows, Denice Gordon will also share some of the tips she has learned along the way in her office management career, to stay free from injury. Along with being available to answer questions about the chiropractic profession in general, they will be focusing on: learning the importance of an ergonomic workstation and how to set one up; stretching exercises for the upper back, arms, wrists and hands; how to keep working even if you are injured; how chiropractic treatment and massage therapy can speed the healing process; and examples of new, cutting edge workstation equipment, (including keyboards and new types of mice), and where to find them.
