Gardening!...Be careful with lower Back Pain
“Gardening involves a lot of bending,” he says, “and can lead to awkward positions.” Reaching, as when pruning a bush, can strain your back. Using tools, like a shovel, adds a whole new dimension to physical exertion. Moving heavy objects—like 10- to 50-pound bags of peat moss—offers unique challenges. “These are dead weight, bulky, unruly,”
“The weight can shift, and then you flinch and grab at it.”
BE CAREFULL
The stress on the back produced by prolonged flexion of the spine—that is, bending forward, thus reversing the spine’s natural curvature and straining the ligaments, muscles, and even the discs that separate the vertebrae.
Before Gardening Back Stretches
These can also be done during or after gardening. Any exercise or back stretch should be done slowly and without strain; never force yourself into a position. If you feel pain, stop.
Recomendation: Very important after all your gardening job take time for you and wellbeging get a massage.
