Ergonomic and Lifestyle Advice

 Lifestyle is often what brings patients into our office.  You do not need a specific trauma or injury to cause a musculoskeletal problem.  Most of the time, it is a cumulative effect of micro-traumas we experience in our day-to-day.  Whether it be from putting on a few pounds, to always sitting at a desk, or sleeping on a poor mattress and pillow.  These are the things we will try to address during your time in the office to help correct and prevent a recurring problem. 

We will talk about proper sitting ergonomics.  This might be how you sit at your desk or even in your car.  We will discuss how your desk should be set up and positioning of things such as your monitor and keyboard.  We will talk about how you sleep and what can be done to improve it.  Dr K is a huge promoter of Tempur-pedic mattresses.  As for pillows, this is just another area where our office stands out.  We supply patients with custom fit pillows from a company called Pillowise.  We physically measure you and fit you with a pillow specifically for your size.  We started using this company in 2019, and the results have been outstanding.
