common challenges for desk workers

✅ Prolonged sitting and forward head posture lead to tight hips, weak glutes, upper back stiffness, and lower back pain.

✅ Poor posture can reduce productivity, increase fatigue, and interfere with sleep.

✅ Real relief requires more than just a stretch—it takes targeted medical-therapeutic care designed for your lifestyle.

Why desk posture matters

Sitting for hours, working on laptops, or using multiple screens can slowly alter how your body functions. Over time, muscles tighten, joints stiffen, and circulation decreases — leading to pain, fatigue, and reduced focus.

Common complaints we see from desk workers include:

Neck and shoulder tightness
Mid-back stiffness
Headaches or jaw tension
Numbness or tingling in arms
Low back and hip pain
General fatigue or poor concentration

These symptoms aren’t just uncomfortable — they’re signs your body is out of alignment.

how we can help

Our Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DOs) specialize in diagnosing and correcting the underlying causes of posture-related pain — not just treating the symptoms.

We use a combination of medical expertise, hands-on care, and movement-based recovery plans to help you feel your best at work and beyond.

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT)

Gentle, precise adjustments that release tension, improve joint motion, and rebalance your posture.OMT restores normal biomechanics to your spine, shoulders, and hips — reducing strain from prolonged sitting.

Shockwave Therapy

If muscle knots or chronic tension have built up over time, FocusWave™ shockwave therapy stimulates circulation and healing deep in the tissues.

It’s ideal for:

Chronic neck or upper back pain
Shoulder tightness
Myofascial trigger points

Movement & Ergonomic Retraining

We don’t just treat the pain — we help you fix the cause. Our team provides simple, effective exercises and ergonomic guidance tailored to your workspace setup, posture, and daily demands.

Common adjustments we coach on:

Desk and chair height
Monitor positioning
