San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 04, 2011

As experts in ergonomics, chiropractors such as Dr. Adam Jacobs are well equipped to help people determine how to best use their workspaces, equipment and devices to avoid injury and pain. With many new devices (tablets, mobile phones, PDAs, laptops, etc.) coming into greater use by the American public both at work and at home it is very important that people know how to properly use these devices while minimizing the stress they put onto the body. The American Chiropractic Association reports, Being Techno Healthy also means knowing when to unplug and reconnect with the world around you through exercise and other wellness activities.

Dr. Jacobs helps patients be Techno Healthy both in prevention techniques as well as chiropractic care to help eliminate pain resulting from use or overuse of these devices. For prevention, Dr. Jacobs teaches patients exercises and stretches that can be done at work to minimize stress and performs ergonomic evaluations to ensure proper use and function of workspaces. Additionally, Dr. Jacobs encourages patients to be Techno Healthy by giving people pointers about when it is time to take a break, move around and ease some of the stress of work. For example, Dr. Jacobs encourages patients to set reminders on their computers or devices every hour to take a break, look away and get up and move around. It is important for your back and posture to have the change of position as well as good for the eyes and nervous system to reduce strain of continuous use of computers and devices.

Improper or over use of devices and computers can cause headaches, neck pain, forward head posture, arm/wrist pain and Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, all of which can be treated by chiropractic care. For treating injury or pain caused by improper or over usage of devices, Dr. Jacobs combines traditional chiropractic adjustments with other modalities such as Active Release Technique, laser therapy and deep tissue massage. The combination of modalities helps to fix any immediate misalignments as well as work on the soft tissue to help ensure the alignment holds longer. Dr. Jacobs is one of few San Francisco chiropractors who is full-body certified in Active Release Technique.

This month in honor of National Chiropractic Health Month, Dr. Adam Jacobs encourages San Francisco to be Techno Healthy by offering free initial chiropractic and ergonomic consultations. He hopes people will learn to use chiropractic care as a resource for health, which includes being Techno Healthy. Anyone interested in seeing how chiropractic can help in being Techno Healthy (or just healthy in general) should contact SF Custom Chiropractic to set up their free chiropractic consultation.
