Body Mechanics and Ergonomics Training

What is Body Mechanics and Ergonomics Training?

Proper technique is vital when we are performing tasks such as lifting, vacuuming, sweeping, washing dishes, reaching for objects, etc. Poor technique can lead to low back pain, shoulder pain, and neck pain – to name a few. You may have heard the phrase, “Lift with your legs, not your back.” Do you know exactly what this means? How do we lift properly with our legs? Your therapist will educate you on proper technique for whatever tasks you may need to perform on a regular basis. Certain exercises or stretches may be prescribed to target certain muscle groups in order for you to perform the task with more ease.

What are patients saying about us?

Thanks to Edwin, I walk again, have almost no back pain despite many hurt discs, have not lost the use of both my arms and shoulders and know that no matter what happens to me, I have a compassionate, educated, intelligent, efficient and fun physical therapist who will bring me back to life. I could not recommend him enough! I have been a patient of physical therapy for 20 years, worldwide, and he is by far the best I have met.
