Help for Dental Professionals Whose Patients Are a Pain in the Neck

Work-related pain can affect the quality of care given by dentists and other health care providers. Dr. Erin Ducat offers relief for health care professionals as well as their patients experiencing TMJ. She is giving a free presentation on how to relieve these types of pains on September 24, 2008. Seating is limited so call for a reservation.

Bloomingdale, IL, September 05, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Multiple opportunities for pain and discomfort directly related to how the body is positioned, while at work, present themselves on a daily basis. Dental professionals’ bodies especially are forced to be in a flexed or fetal position that causes tremendous strain on the neck, upper back and the nerves that supply the arms that may result in a condition known as Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS). It is likely that TOS is probably more common in the dental population than carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). TOS is often misdiagnosed as CTS. (Find out more about TOS at www.ducatchiropractic.com/healtharticles.)

In addition, this type of flexed posture predisposes people to a disorder known as TMJ or TMD (Temporomandibular (Joint) Disorder), a condition with which dental professionals are well acquainted. Dr. Ducat offers dental professionals and their patients treatment to end the suffering caused by this problem and many others that are a direct result from their work postures.

“As in many other medical professions, a dental care professional must be physically able to accommodate their patients’ needs. Being in pain limits their mobility or makes their work more difficult to do. The whole body is called into service to provide the quality of care that patients have come to expect,” says Dr. Ducat E. Ducat, DC, CSCS, FIAMA.

Known by her patients as “Dr. Erin”, Dr. Ducat has worked with individuals from all walks-of-life to alleviate their pain. As a medical professional whose patient treatments often place physical demands on her own body, Dr. Ducat is uniquely qualified to understand that although awkward-to-reach areas needing attention might be painful to access, it is necessary, despite the discomfort, in order to provide meticulous care.

Dental care professionals realize that “quality of care” is one of the main reasons why patients continue to return, as well as, from where referrals originate. Certainly, patients do not consider what the care provider must put there body through to maintain that level of care but dental professionals must. What is a conscientious dental care provider to do? What if you were unable to continue providing this “level of care”? How would you be able to treat your patients and keep your practice successful and growing?

On September 24, 2008, at Mark Drug in Roselle, IL, at 6 pm, a complementary presentation designed for dental professionals, featuring Dr. Erin E. Ducat will provide the solutions you need so those questions never need arise. She will share advice on how to prevent pain and what to do if you have pain. Also included will be some easy stretches to do while at work to help avoid injury that will keep your practice running smoothly.

Dental practitioners interested in getting relief from pain or in finding ways to decrease the possibility of pain associated with their work habits are invited to reach Dr. Erin to register for this presentation or to set up an interview by calling 224-653-8094. Seating is limited; reservations required. Anyone else experiencing work-related pain is welcome to call her to find out how to feel better and do better at work.

Formerly with Fox Chiropractic Center in Geneva, IL, Dr. Ducat, has entered into private practice at 107 Third Street, Suite #2, in Bloomingdale, Illinois. A graduate of the National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, IL, she utilizes a unique approach to pain treatment, blending state-of-the-art chiropractic techniques with ancient Chinese acupuncture practices.
