Beat Backache

by

Lisa Busby


Every day 100,000 people in the UK are off work because of back pain. A few simple rules will help you avoid this painful problem.

Use chairs that support the small of your back and make sure they are at the right height in relation to your desk.

Walk with your back upright rather than bent forward.

Bend your knees not your back when lifting of picking up low-level objects.
