Hurt at Work? Workers' Comp May Cover Your Care.
No referral may be needed for work injuries in Oregon. Dr. Segal has helped patients recover from on-the-job injuries since 2001.
Common Work-Related Injuries
Work injuries can happen all at once or build up gradually over time. Here are some of the most common issues we see from patients hurt on the job.
Lifting Injuries
Strains and sprains from lifting, carrying, or moving heavy objects on the job.
Repetitive Strain
Gradual muscle or joint irritation from repeated motions over time, common in warehouse, healthcare, and service jobs.
Neck & Back Pain
Pain and stiffness from prolonged standing, awkward postures, or physical job tasks.
Muscle Strain
Overuse or sudden strain affecting the shoulders, back, or lower body during work activities.
Posture-Related Pain
Discomfort that builds up from long shifts at a desk, on your feet, or in physically demanding roles.
Slip & Fall Strain
Muscle and joint strain from a slip, trip, or fall while on the job.

How Chiropractic Care May Help
Chiropractic care focuses on evaluating and treating the muscle, joint, and spinal injuries that are common with physically demanding or repetitive work. Dr. Kevin Segal has been helping patients recover from work injuries in the Milwaukie and Portland area since 2001.
Care is conservative and personalized, built around what he finds during your evaluation — not a generic plan every patient receives.
