Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) such as carpal tunnel syndrome, back problems and tendonitis account for nearly 70 million doctor office visits in the United States annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In addition, MSD’s lead to employee absences, lost productivity, and increased health care, disability and worker’s compensation costs.
