Got pain that doesn’t go away?
You think it’s maybe related to your work – perhaps typing/mousing, or some other repetitive task like lifting or twisting – but you just don’t know. Nothing you do, exercise or short breaks, makes it feel any better for more than a moment.
You may have RSI.
RSI or Repetitive Strain Injury is a common condition. Other names for RSI problems include, CTD (Cumulative Trauma Disorder), OOS (Occupational Overuse Syndrome) and WRULD (Work Related Upper Limb Disorder).
However you label it, it is a chronic, long-lasting condition which needs special attention. Physiotherapy is crucial for the treatment of this condition as it usually takes a combination of breaks, stretching, exercises then relearning the skill with better technique – the combining of which is a major part of a physio’s expertise.
Our physiotherapists at BJC Health have all the expertise to help you overcome this debilitating condition. While solutions are not simple and take time, our physios will get you back on track.
