Raking leaves can be a very strenuous activity and can put a
lot of stress on your back.
Below
are some tips to prevent pain when raking leaves:
Take frequent breaks
and do gentle stretches
If you feel a sharp
pain in your back, stop for the day
Make sure you warm-up
before you begin
When lifting bags of
leaves make sure you are lifting correctly keeping a neutral spine and carry
smaller, manageable loads
If you are experiencing any discomfort, contact
