From our patients: A corporate warrior in constant pain
As a corporate professional, you’re probably no stranger to long hours at a desk, staring at screens, and juggling deadlines. But over time, these routines can take a serious toll on your body, resulting in constant pain.
I found myself dealing with nagging back pain from endless hours of sitting, neck and shoulder stiffness from bad posture, and even wrist pain from typing.
Despite trying ergonomic chairs and stretches, the pain always came back. It wasn’t until I sought professional help that I realised how deeply these work habits were affecting me.
Common Pains Corporate Workers Face
Back Pain: Hours spent sitting without proper posture cause tension and stiffness in the lower back.
Neck and Shoulder Pain: Slouching over laptops or looking down at phones leads to tightness and aches in these areas.
Wrist Pain: Typing and mouse use often lead to repetitive strain injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome.
Finding Relief with Physiotherapy
At BalanceCore, I discovered that the pain I was feeling wasn’t just a sign of bad posture—it was my body’s way of telling me something needed to change. Through their comprehensive approach, they assessed my daily habits, posture, and movement. The treatment plan they developed included manual therapy and targeted exercises to not only relieve pain but prevent it from coming back.
If you’re dealing with similar issues, it’s important to address the root cause of your pain before it becomes chronic. Physiotherapy isn’t just about short-term relief—it’s about long-term wellness and giving you the tools to stay pain-free in your busy life.
Thanks BalanceCore, for saving my neck, back, and job!
