Computer Repetitive Stress Injuries

The use of computers in colleges and offices has increased substantially over the past few years. This has resulted in an increase in computer repetitive stress injuries (CRSI) that include shoulder pain, neck pain, headache, backache, wrist pain, eye discomfort, and carpal tunnel syndrome.1

Today, nearly 200,000 Americans suffer from work related musculoskeletal injuries due to poor design of work place2. Over one half of these injuries are due to use of computers.2 In the year 1994, 7897 cases of carpel tunnel syndrome was reported due to repetitive typing.2 More specifically, at an engineering firm, 46% of the employees suffered from neck pain, 38.5% had headaches, 30.8% had shoulder pain, and 30.8% had back pain due to computer use.2

There is a huge imbalance in health care allocation in the United States with 95% of the investments being used to treat diseases, and only 5% being used for prevention3. Taking this into consideration, this video intends to increase public awareness and talks about the various ergonomic techniques that can be used to prevent CRSI.

Target audience: Professionals and students who regularly use computers at work places and homes.
Main message: Use easy ergonomic techniques to prevent computer related stress injuries.
Created for: HMI 7544 Epidemiology; University of Missouri-Columbia, Winter Semester 2008.

The Neck & Back Pain Cure They Don’t Want You to Know About

Discover the secret CAUSE of your chronic neck, shoulder & back pain while improving your posture, facial attractiveness and mental functioning abilities. It’s all in your head — your skull actually.

Breakthrough medical technology actually “puts your head on straight” and adjusts the bones of your skull FROM THE INSIDE OUT without expensive drugs and dangerous surgical procedures.

Your neck and back are sore because they’re compensating all day long to keep your 10 pound head balanced. Neurocranial Restructuring (NCR) is the only protocol that quickly, safely and gently rebalances both the bones of the skull, and how your head sits on top of your spine to relieve your chronic pain once and for all.

Physiotherapy, chiropractic, osteopathy, and even orthopedic surgery pale in comparison to the results of this natural treatment. Massage, exercise and stretching are great, but they don’t address the cause.

Common benefits of NCR include:

- Relief from chronic shoulder, neck and back pain (upper, lower, left, right)
- Scoliosis, Lordosis (swayback) and Kyphosis (hunchback) lessen dramatically
- Long lasting relief from head injuries and post concussion syndrome symptoms

- Improved attractiveness as your ears, eyes and entire face become more symmetrical, cheek bones rise, narrow and sharp features soften, & wrinkles usually diminish
- Bald men get a sexier head as unattractive ridges, peaks, and dents lessen
- Mental clarity improves as your brain gains “more room to think”

- Snoring, chronic sinus and ear problems routinely improve
- TMJ symptoms diminish as the jaw begins tracking properly
- List of other conditions NCR benefits below

You’ve been to the hospital, clinic and doctors office enough. 99.9% of M.D.’s and even chiropractors are not trained in this remedy. You need a specialist.

Famous celebrities and everyday people spend a fortune working with plastic and cosmetic surgeons. Bald men commonly were hats to hide their heads. Instead of a facelift or a nose job, try NCR.

I’m a big supporter of Kevin Trudeau, and look forward to connecting with him. I too lost my health early and battled with “incurable” health problems. Natural Cures are the answer — you just might know this if you haven’t exhausted conventional medicine yet. If you know Kevin or are a subscriber to his naturalcures.com website, tell him about NCR. He’s got to try this. He’ll absolutely LOVE it!

NCR is currently available in California, Florida, Texas, Washington and even in Canada. You won’t hear about it in the news, your favorite TV show, radio program, or popular magazine and certainly not from CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, the AMA, FDA or WHO. Even The Health Network, Discovery Channel, Dr. Andrew Weil, Oprah and Dr. Phil probably don’t know about NCR yet. I hope they see this free video and do a story on this outstanding treatment that has done so much for me.

I’m a huge hockey fan. I love playing and watching the game. I think it’s tragic how concussions end the careers of so many NHL players. One of my goals is to raise the awareness for NCR as the solution for those who suffer from concussion symptoms.

These days the game is so fast that wingers, centers and defensemen are getting smoked with big hits. I’d like this message to get to high profile guys like Eric Lindros, Jeremy Roenick, Sydney Crosby, Joe Thornton, Eric Stall, and the players on my favorite team, the Vancouver Canucks (Dave Nonis, Steve Tambellini, Alain Vigneault…are you reading this?)

For instance, winger Jason King is a great skater with an unfortunate history of concussions. I’d love if ESPN or CBC’s Ron McLean mentioned NCR or Don Cherry did in his next Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em dvd.

Head injury from football and boxing injuries would benefit from NCR. The blows those guys take to the cranium is incredible. CTE (chronic tramatic encephalopathy) and MTBI (mild traumatic brain injury) were recently mentioned in Popular Science as big issues and the use of X-rays in diagnosis and a Concussion Summit in Chicago.

Other conditions for NCR: migraine headaches, arthritis, Whiplash, ostitis media, bursitis, rheumatism, learning disabilities, poor concentration, Sciatica, acute sinusitis, Sleep Apnea, teeth grinding, Tinnitus, TMD
