Spring Yard Work Tips To Guarantee A Trip To The Chiropractor

It is supposed to be a beautiful weekend here in the Lynchburg area so many of us will be heading outside for some yard work. If you would like to definitely end up in our office hurting next week, here are a few tips:

  1. Rest breaks are for wimps. We had a long winter, but make sure you get all the yard work finished in the shortest amount of time possible.
  2. Water is overrated. Who needs to be hydrated before starting and continue to drink lots of high quality H2O during activity anyway?
  3. You don't need help lifting that tree. Don't bother asking for help from a family member or neighbor to move heavy objects. YOU CAN DO IT!!!
  4. It will get better on its own. You don't need to stop, rest and ice your aches and pains. I am sure they will all just get better on their own even after you continue to over-stress your body.
There you go folks. We will see you soon!

P.S. Please note the sarcasm. Have a great weekend!
