Musculoskeletal Disorders
According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA, n.d.-a), one-third of all worker injury
and illness cases were musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). MSDs are those injuries and illnesses that affect
the muscles, nerves, ligaments, tendons, and blood vessels within the body. In the workplace, these are
oftentimes caused by ergonomic issues. However, what is ergonomics? Ergonomics is the science of fitting
the job to the worker, not the worker to the job. By incorporating ergonomics into the workplace, we can
lessen the possibility of musculoskeletal disorders (OSHA, n.d.-a).
The following are some examples of work-related MSDs:
carpal tunnel syndrome,
tendonitis,
rotator cuff injuries,
epicondylitis,
trigger finger,
muscle strains,
muscle sprains, and
lower back injuries.

Title
Although the proposed ergonomics standard was rescinded, OSHA does have ergonomic guidelines to help
protect employees from workplace MSDs. Employers are required to provide a safe and healthy workplace for
employees; however, incorporating ergonomic programs in the workplace not only benefits the worker, it
benefits the business as well. As humans, when we do not feel well or are uncomfortable, we may not put
forth our best efforts at work. In fact, if the pain or discomfort becomes too severe, we may call in sick to work.
Increased absenteeism may cause work to fall behind, resulting in a profit loss for the company. This pain or
discomfort also decreases the worker’s quality of life outside of the workplace. If a worker calls in ill, the
company may have to pay another employee overtime to perform the work. If the employee is permanently
unable to perform the assigned tasks, the employer will have to hire another individual and train them, which
can be an expensive and time-consuming process.

FOUNDATIONAL CONCEPTS OF EXERCISE THERAPY.pptx 2nd sem.pptxFATHIMAVK3
Exercise therapy is founded on the principle that targeted physical activity can be utilized to prevent, manage, or rehabilitate various health conditions. It involves structured and supervised exercise programs tailored to individual needs, aiming to improve mobility, strength, endurance, flexibility, and overall quality of life.
1. **Individualized Approach:** Exercise therapy recognizes that each person's condition and abilities are unique. Therefore, programs are customized to address specific needs, taking into account factors like age, fitness level, medical history, and personal goals.
2. **Evidence-Based Practice:** The design of exercise therapy programs is grounded in scientific research and clinical evidence. Therapists use proven techniques and protocols to ensure effectiveness and safety.
3. **Multidisciplinary Collaboration:** Exercise therapists often work closely with other healthcare professionals, such as physiotherapists, physicians, and nutritionists, to provide comprehensive care. This interdisciplinary approach ensures that all aspects of a person's health are considered.
4. **Progressive Overload:** Exercise programs are structured to gradually increase in intensity and difficulty over time. This principle helps individuals continually challenge their bodies and achieve ongoing improvements in strength, endurance, and function.
5. **Patient Education:** Exercise therapists empower individuals with knowledge about their condition, treatment plan, and how exercise can positively impact their health. Education promotes adherence to the program and fosters long-term self-management.
6. **Functional Training:** Exercises are often designed to mimic real-life movements and activities, with the goal of improving functional capacity and enhancing daily living skills. This approach helps individuals regain independence and confidence in performing everyday tasks.
Overall, exercise therapy is a holistic approach that recognizes the interconnectedness of physical, mental, and emotional well-being, aiming to optimize health and quality of life through targeted movement and activity.
Here are some additional aspects of exercise therapy:
1. **Risk Management:** Exercise therapists assess risks associated with physical activity, such as injury or exacerbation of existing conditions, and develop strategies to mitigate these risks. Safety measures, proper technique instruction, and appropriate progression of exercises are emphasized to minimize potential harm.
2. **Behavioral Change:** Exercise therapy often involves coaching individuals to adopt and maintain healthy lifestyle behaviors. This may include goal-setting, motivational interviewing, and strategies to overcome barriers to exercise adherence. By addressing psychological factors and promoting positive habits, exercise therapists support long-term behavior change.
3. **Monitoring and Evaluation:** Progress in exercise therapy is regularly monitored and evaluated

2. Logic dictates that if we work
more efficiently, we will be
more productive and,
therefore, more satisfied with
our personal work, our
wages, and the use of our
leisure time.
3. INTRODUCTION
Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders is a
group of ailments that affect tendon, muscle and
nerve complex as a result of being exposed to
work risks.
The risks majorly include:
Force
Repetition
Awkward & Prolonged Posture
Contact stress
Vibration
Cold temperature with above risks.
4. INTRODUCTION CONTINUED
Banking is a sector not spared by
musculoskeletal disorders as workers not trained
of appropriate work ergonomics and management
strategies end up being subjected to the various
risks over long duration only to end up reporting
the cases while in the chronic state.
Knowledge on occurrence forms a vital aspect in
the prevention so that every bank employee can
enjoy the work as well as cut down on medical
bills incurred annually in addressing MSD.
8. SOLUTION STRATEGIES
Physiotherapy / Ergonomics
Proper use of office equipment
Awareness of poor biomechanics
Early recognition, identification
Address incidence early before chronicity
Proper reporting strategies
9. WHY PHYSIOTHERAPY
Physiotherapy is a science-based profession that
takes into account a whole person approach to
health and wellbeing, which include the client’s
general lifestyle.
At core is the patient getting involved in their own
care through education, awareness,
empowerment and participation in treatment
A physiotherapist is the equivalent of the Physical
Therapist in British and is a healthcare profession
who specializes in maximizing human movement,
function and potential.
10. CONTINUATION
Evidence based physiotherapy will entail:
History taking
Assessment and tests
Treatment
Evaluation and review
Prognosis
Treatment Basis
Treatment rendered will depend upon the diagnosis arrived
by the physiotherapist and will include stretching tight
muscles, strengthening weak muscles, correcting posture,
addressing biomechanics, ergonomic education, hands on
mobilization and manipulation and use of machine such us
electrotherapy modalities, heat therapy, cold therapy and
traction.

20. Prevention of WRMSD via
Ergonomics
Good Body Posture-
Equipment, tools,
furniture, & visual
demands have direct
effect on posture.
Take work breaks to
change position.
21. Prevention of WRMSD via
Ergonomics- Lifting Best Practices
Assess the situation.
How far will you have to carry the load? Is the path
clear?
Once the load is lifted, will it block your view?
Can the load be broken down into smaller parts?
Should you wear gloves to get a better grip?
Size up the load.
Test the weight by lifting or sliding one corner. If it is
too heavy or awkward, STOP!
Can you use a mechanical lift or hand truck?
Can you lift the load safely, or is it a two- or more
person lift? If you doubt you can lift the load safely,
ask for help.
22. Ergonomics- Best
Practices for Lifting
Use good lifting techniques. Get close to the load
with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Get a good handhold, and pull the load close to you
Bend at your knees and hips, keep the inward curve in
your back (a neutral spine), and lift with your legs.
If you need to lean forward, support your upper body
weight with one hand.
23. Ergonomics- Best Practices for
Lifting
Maintains the natural
curves in the spine.
Pivot instead of twisting.
24. RECOGNITION/
IDENTIFICATION
Understanding the signs and symptoms of
WRMSDs is a strategy in health office
management. It gives the opinion to seek help.
Not limited to pain, tenderness, tingling, stiffness,
swelling or inability to use a part.
25. CONTROL PHASES
ENGINEERING CONTROL.
Physical modification to a process, or process
equipment, or the installation of further equipment.
WORK PRACTICE CONTROL.
work station modification to reduce/ eliminate the
likelihood of exposure by altering how task is done.
PERSONAL/PROTECTIVE CONTROL.
Inbuilt behavioral strategies in management and
understanding of undertakings as well as having
appropriate tools.
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL.
Involves training, education and application of SOP
26. Ergonomics Finalize
Consider the specific tasks of the patients in
order to make meaningful changes.
