Is a work related injury limiting your ability to lead an active life? Workers compensation injuries can affect any employee at any job – you don’t have to work construction or lift heavy boxes all day to be injured. In fact, many of the workplace injuries treated by Dr. Schroter occurred in an office environment. For example, poor posture and ergonomics can lead to chronic neck pain along with carpal tunnel syndrome. All it takes is one misstep to slip and fall on a wet breakroom floor, leading to neck and/or back pain. If you are suffering from work related injuries, Schroter Chiropractic Center is here to help.
Dr. Schroter is proud to be the chiropractor of choice for countless residents. His integrated approach to injury rehabilitation and pain management combines traditional chiropractic care with innovative treatments like massage and physiotherapy. Dr. Schroter can treat your symptoms and provide rehabilitative care without prescription medications if possible.
A back injury is one of the most common work related injuries affecting our patients. A bulging disc typically causes back pain with radiating leg pains. Poor posture is also a contributing factor. Long hours hunched over a computer screen strains the muscles, leading to soreness and stiffness. The first step towards managing chronic back pain is to identify the underlying cause. If poor ergonomics are responsible, then Dr. Schroter will work with you to correct this situation. Simple adjustments to chair height, back support and computer placement can reduce or completely eliminate back strain.
If your workplace injury caused a bulging or protruding disc, chiropractic manipulations can help restore proper disc alignment. As long as the disc compresses the nerve, you will continue to experience radiating or numbing pain. Depending on the disc’s location, you may even experience neck pain or suffer from arm pains. Dr. Schroter offers a variety of different adjusting techniques and specializes in correcting bulging discs. Depending on your injury, Dr. Schroter will create a custom treatment program to address your specific pain management and rehabilitation needs.
Thanks to our computer-dependent workplace, carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common workplace injury. This painful condition is characterized by a burning pain sensation, difficulty holding or gripping objects, and a tingling pain sensation. CTS is caused by swelling around the median nerve in the wrist. This swelling puts pressure on the nerve, which causes pain. A combination of massage, physical therapy and hands-on adjustments help relieve this pain – without the need for medication.

When you are involved in an Atlanta personal injury or auto accident, the most common injuries are:
• Whiplash
• Torn Muscles
• Stretched Tendons
• Pinched Nerves
• Internal Bruising
• Headaches
• Concussions
The most common of these injuries is whiplash. It is estimated that over a million whiplash cases occur every year due to car crashes. It can happen in an impact as low as fifteen miles an hour. What most people don't realize is that it is the sudden jolt from the impact that causes the injury not the speed of the impact itself. Unfortunately, this means that whiplash often isn't reported which can lead to further injury and suffering to the patient. This can cause additional suffering including neck pain, stiffness, pain between the shoulder blades, blurred vision, fatigue, dizziness, and headaches.
The Schroter Chiropractic Center wants to prevent you from having the aches and pains associated with whiplash or any other additional trauma resulting from involvement in a personal injury or an auto accident. We will work with you to decide on the best treatment options for your situation and add a personal touch of compassion and understanding to your care.
