Back to school is more stressful than ever, especially for teachers! Hours spent hunched over a desk while grading and lesson planning and standing for hours while teaching takes a toll on spinal health. Back pain and stress are both common ailments for teachers, and chiropractic care may be able to help. Here’s why teachers should try chiropractic for a healthy and pain-free school year.
TEACHING IS PHYSICALLY TOUGH
Most people don’t realize how physically demanding teaching can be. Teachers arrive at school hours before it’s time for class and usually don’t leave until the evening. They spend hours creating activities, developing lesson plans, and writing tests and quizzes. Teaching also requires stamina for hours of talking and standing, plus the added stress of combining virtual school with in-class learning due to the COVID-19. These emotional and physical stressors leave teachers with aching heads, aching bodies, and aching backs.
Studies have found that teachers take on many physical demands making musculoskeletal disorders common. The body parts that are most commonly impacted for teachers are the wrists, shoulders, and back but pain in the feet, knees, and legs is also common.
HOW WILLS CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP
Studies also show that chiropractic care can be an effective treatment for the toll teaching takes on the body. Chiropractic manipulations and adjustments help remove joint restrictions and dysfunction so the body can fully utilize its natural ability to heal itself and function optimally. Our chiropractors can also advise on nutrition, stretches, and exercises to help decrease pain and risk of injury.
The many benefits of chiropractic that our patients report include fewer headaches, better sleep, improved posture, a stronger immune system, and a boost in cognitive function – all of which are reason enough alone for teachers to give chiropractic a try!
