DEALING BACK PAIN IN GARDEN WORK PROPERLY - MAINTAINING POSTURE

Milder temperatures? That's where the walk in the garden invites you to make it fit for the summer. But the fun of gardening with digging up beds, planting plant pots and cutting hedges can quickly fade away when the often unaccustomed working posture causes agonizing back pain.

But prevention is the best therapy.

Regular training with specific exercises to strengthen and stretch the back and abdominal muscles keeps the muscle corset in place and relieves the spine. On the SPORLASTIC bandages and orthoses there is a QR code which leads to guided exercises via smartphone or tablet.

When working in the garden, start with light work and gradually accustom your body to the unusual strain.

Back-friendly and varied work (e.g. kneeling when weeding, regular straightening from a stooped position) as well as taking a short break from work every now and then - all this can help to protect against overstrain.

Back orthoses such as the VERTEBRADYN® AKTIV can also be used specifically for stabilizing relief and straightening of the lower back area.
