The right moves! Use the right moves to lighten the load on your back. Kneel, don’t bend, to plant. Change your Healthy Body position often. Take frequent breaks. Alternate between light and heavy chores. Drink lots of water. And most importantly, loosen-up before you start out.
Warm up! Before you begin any physical activity, warming up is a key factor in preventing injury. Take a walk, even on the spot. Ten to 15 minutes should do it. Don’t forget to lift your knees and gently swing your arms.
Stretch before you start! To plant and rake without the ache, do each of these stretches five times. Don’t bounce, jerk or strain. Stretches should be gentle and should not cause pain. If you do have a strain or injury, please do not hesitate to give our office a call to get you back to your love of gardening soon.
