It can be a very strenuous activity and can put a lot of stress on your back. However, it’s a task that cannot be ignored. 😒
When you do start raking those leaves, be mindful of your back. ⚠
👉 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 our office to see one of our experienced team members. ✅
