1 Jeanette Braun OTR, CHT Aurora Medical Center Oshkosh The Value of Stretching in the Workplace
2 Objectives What is an MSD? Benefits of Stretching Stretching Programs: Research General Guidelines for workplace stretching programs Getting Started
3 What is a Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD)? A MSD is an injury that affects Bones Muscles, tendons, ligaments Blood vessels Nerves Joints
4 MSD s The most common cause of severe long term pain and disability Affect both men and women Account for 50% of lost time claims
5 Warning Signs of MSD s Pain Weakness Numbness/tingling/burning Fatigue Stiffness
6 Muscle Strains and Sprains Prevention is the Key
7 Important Benefits of Stretching Increases blood flow and brings oxygen and nutrition to the area and aids in healing Blood flow warms up the tissue and prepares it for activity
8 Important Benefits of Stretching Reduces muscle tension Increases motion Develops body awareness Prepares you for strenuous activity Feels good
9 Research Study Los Angeles firefighters were evaluated to explore the relationship between fitness measures, occupational injuries, and claim costs. Firefighters were placed into one of three fitness categories using a scoring system for flexibility, strength, exercise diastolic blood pressure, heart rated, and physical work capacity.
10 Results The most fit were found to be substantially more flexible than the least fit group. An association was found between flexibility, fitness, and work injury. Firefighters with either greater flexibility, strength, or work capacity had much lower back and total injury costs.
11 What does this mean for business costs? Total back injury costs were almost 6 times greater for those with the least flexibility verses the most flexible firefighters. $50,086 verses $8,831
12 Workplace Stretching Programs Stretches in computer work: - Of 19 computer users who completed a computerbased stretch break, 53% reported fewer symptoms and 100% reported they found stretching to be helpful. - 63% reported the program helped increase their productivity. Stretches in manufacturing: - Statistically significant increase in flexibility measurements for all body regions tested after 2 months of stretching. - Participants perception of physical conditioning, self worth, attractiveness, and strength also increased significantly.
13 Flexibility Program in Municipal Firefighters Evaluated the incidence, cost, and severity of joint injuries in stretchers versus non-stretchers. After 6 months, participants were significantly more flexible.
14 Two Year Follow Up Incidence of injuries: - 48 injuries among stretchers - 52 injuries among non-stretchers Total dollars spent due to injuries (medical and time loss): - $85,372 for stretchers - $235,131 for non-stretchers Time lost dollars spent due to injuries: - $45,597 for stretchers - $147,581 for non-stretchers
15 Who Should Stretch? Everyone! Note: If you have had recent surgery you should consult your physician before beginning a stretching program
16 Workplace Stretching Programs General Guidelines Preliminary aerobic warm-up for 5 minutes prior to stretching Stretching programs should be designed by job description to focus on the body region most at risk for injury. Use static and/or contract-relax stretches
17 Workplace Stretching Programs General Guidelines Perform stretches correctly: - Hold stretch for seconds repetitions per muscle group - Stretch bilaterally (both sides) - Intensity should be to a position of mild discomfort Trained instructors should lead and monitor classes, compliance should also be monitored. Stretch at appropriate times throughout the day/shift will vary based on job description
18 Workplace Stretching Programs General Guidelines Company commitment to work time and program overhead costs is important.
19 Getting Started Now we will go through some stretches that you can do on the job that will help you improve your flexibility.
20 Neck Stretches Stretching
21 Lateral Neck Stretch Stretching
22 Arm circles Stretching
23 Forearm/wrist Stretching
24 Chest stretch Stretching
25 Triceps Stretch Stretching
26 Cat Stretch Stretching
27 Shoulder Opener Stretching
28 Spinal Circles Stretching
29 Lateral Stretch with Legs Crossed Stretching
30 Stretching Forward Fold Option legs crossed
31 Quad Stretch Stretching
32 Calf and Ankle Stretch Stretching
33 Trunk twist Stretching
34 Overall fitness Stretching is only one component of injury prevention. Fitness for most physical activities requires a combination of endurance, strength and flexibility, musculoskeletal timing and coordination.
