Work Injuries
Work-related injuries can develop suddenly or over time, often affecting the muscles, joints, and connective tissues you rely on every day. Whether your injury occurred from repetitive movements, heavy lifting, prolonged standing, or a sudden workplace incident, it’s important to address symptoms early to prevent long-term complications. Chiropractic care can play a key role in restoring function, reducing pain, and helping you safely return to work.
Have You Been Injured at Work?
A workers’ compensation injury is an injury or illness sustained in the course of your job or while performing work-related duties. Workers’ compensation is an insurance program designed to ensure you receive appropriate medical care and support following a workplace injury.
What Do You Receive From Workers’ Compensation?
Workers’ compensation coverage is mandated by each state, and benefits vary depending on location. Many policies include assistance with:
- Wage replacement benefits
- Medical treatment
- Vocational rehabilitation
- Other related benefits
If you are injured at work, it’s important to be evaluated by a healthcare professional as soon as possible. Our team can provide thorough chiropractic evaluations and medical documentation to support your workers’ compensation claim. We also work with some highly experienced and knowledgeable Work Injury Attorneys that can help with your case and answer any questions you might have.
Filing the necessary paperwork allows you to begin the process of receiving care and benefits. The most important priority is getting the treatment you need to restore health, mobility, and function in your daily life.
Work injuries commonly involve the spine and soft tissues, including:
- Back and neck strain
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Shoulder and joint pain
- Muscle sprains and stiffness
- Postural injuries from prolonged sitting or standing
Chiropractic care focuses on addressing the root cause of these injuries, improving alignment, reducing inflammation, and supporting natural healing.
Coverage depends on your specific situation and should be confirmed with Veeva Chiropractic, your employer, and your state guidelines. Generally, injuries may be covered if they were:
- Sustained in the course and scope of employment
- Related to performing job duties
- Occurred during work-related travel
- Injuries or illnesses that may not be covered include those resulting from:
- Horseplay
- Willful criminal acts
- Self-inflicted injuries
- Drug or alcohol intoxication
- Voluntary off-duty recreational activities
- Acts of God or unrelated third-party criminal acts
Federal employees may be covered under the Federal Employees’ Compensation Act (FECA), which assists with new claims, benefits management, and returning safely to work.
