Helping You Recover from Job-Related Pain and Return to Work Safely

If you have experienced a work-related injury, chiropractic care may help you recover faster and avoid long-term complications. At Family Care Chiropractic in Louisville, KY, Dr. Jaime Gonzalez, DC, provides focused, individualized treatment for employees who suffer from repetitive stress, strain, or trauma while on the job.



Our clinic works with patients and their employers to help reduce pain, improve function, and create a path back to safe work activities. With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Gonzalez understands how to manage common job-related injuries with effective chiropractic care and supportive therapies that address the root cause of discomfort.

Understanding Work-Related Injuries

Every job places different physical demands on the body. Whether you spend hours on your feet, lift heavy materials, or sit at a desk for extended periods, these activities can lead to overuse, inflammation, or misalignment of the spine and joints.



Chiropractic care is a safe and natural way to reduce the stress that repetitive motions, improper lifting, or poor posture place on the musculoskeletal system. Rather than relying on medication or surgery, chiropractic adjustments and manual therapies restore movement, reduce pressure on nerves, and promote natural healing.

Common Work Injuries We Treat

Workplace injuries often develop gradually and are sometimes overlooked until pain becomes disruptive. Some of the most common conditions we treat at Family Care Chiropractic include:



  • Lower back strain
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Tension headaches
  • Carpal tunnel symptoms
  • Muscle stiffness and joint restriction
  • Sciatic pain
  • Repetitive motion injuries
  • Poor posture-related discomfort


Whether your injury developed slowly over time or resulted from a single incident at work, we provide clear evaluations and customized care to support your recovery and improve your quality of life.

We Support Workers’ Compensation Cases

Navigating a workers’ compensation claim can be stressful, especially when you are in pain. Our office is experienced in handling work injury cases and will help ensure that your documentation, communication, and billing are handled properly.


We assist with:

  • Workers’ compensation documentation
  • Injury evaluations and reporting
  • Medical records for case managers or employers
  • Communication with insurance providers
  • Coordination with your primary care physician or legal team if needed


If your case requires referrals or further imaging, we can provide guidance or work with your employer's medical network to ensure seamless care.

Chiropractic Solutions for Workers

Dr. Gonzalez uses a combination of chiropractic adjustments, muscle therapy, and supportive treatments to help relieve pain and restore physical function. Each care plan is designed to fit the demands of your job, your specific condition, and your stage of healing.


Our treatment approach for work injuries may include:



  • Spinal adjustments to restore alignment and reduce inflammation
  • Joint manipulation for shoulders, wrists, knees, and hips
  • Electrical muscle stimulation to relieve tightness or spasms
  • Heat or cold therapy for pain and inflammation control
  • Stretching and ergonomic recommendations to prevent reinjury
  • Roller table therapy for spinal mobility and circulation


By treating both the symptoms and the underlying causes, chiropractic care helps reduce the need for medication or invasive interventions while supporting a complete recovery.
