Avoid Injury and Pain from Excessive Use of Technology


In honor of National Chiropractic Health Month this October, the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) is bringing attention to the rise in musculoskeletal injuries caused by excessive use of mobile devices, computers and other technologies.

During National Chiropractic Health Month, DCs are sharing ergonomic and other injury-prevention tips that will keep people connected—and healthy!
