What is Repetitive Motion Injury?
Repetitive motion injuries are caused by repeated uses of body parts, such as your shoulders, elbows, forearms, wrists & hands.
Repetitive motion injuries are one of the most common types of work related injuries and workers comp cases.

Any activity that requires repeated motions over a long period of time can cause repetitive motion injuries.
