Prevent Back Injuries Shoveling Snow

The recent snowstorms that have visited our area makes it crucial that you use caution when shoveling to avoid a back injury. Always warm-up properly before going outside to shovel by doing gentle leg and back stretching and an active whole body warm-up like jumping jacks or hopping in place.

While shoveling, always use proper body mechanics by maintaining a "hollow" in your lower back and pivoting your feet to throw the snow. Never bend and twist with a heavy load since this increases your risk of injury. And don't forget to give us a call if you need us!
