Chiropractic: High Force / High Repetition Jobs Can Nearly Triple a Worker’s CTS Risk!

Previous research indicates that repetitive motions performed at work can increase an individual’s risk for developing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). An evaluation of data from six different studies found that workers who perform jobs involving high repetition in addition to high forces are as much as 2.95 times more likely to develop CTS than those whose job activities include neither.
