Seasonal Injuries for Fall or Winter

With the gorgeous seasons comes seasonal injuries, due to outdoor responsibilities like:

Raking leaves
Bagging leaves
Shoveling snow
Cleaning snow off our vehicles

How often have you or someone you care about moved the wrong way or lifted something and all of the sudden had significant back pain that was never there before?

Many people have a tendency to push things like this aside until they negatively affect our activities of daily living. Many people are at risk of injury, re-injury, or are dealing with chronic issues due to lack of core and accessory muscle strength.

Strengthening appropriately and stretching with the correct physiological knowledge to prevent injury or further injury is a strong tool that coming to physical therapy can provide.
