Spine and Joint Injury Prevention

Dr. Lisko recommends the following tips to help protect your spine and joints:

  • Avoid lifting objects that are too heavy.
  • Lift with smooth, controlled motions, avoiding jerking movements.
  • Get close to the object you're lifting, rather than reaching at arm's length.
  • Maintain good posture and avoid awkward positions.
  • Keep your back straight and bend at your hips and knees.
  • Move your feet while lifting, instead of twisting your back.
  • Stand straight with your shoulders back.

Avoid prolonged flexion of the neck and forward head postures. Utilize ergonomic chairs, computer positions, and standing desks. Discuss exercises with your physician and therapist to strengthen and protect your back and joints. Not all exercises for spine and joint injuries are the same. Maintain a neutral sleeping position using pillows and a supportive mattress. Avoid sleeping on your stomach with your head turned to the side.

Our spine and joints are crucial for providing both mobility and stability. However, when injuries occur, even everyday movements like turning, bending, and reaching can become painful and functionally limiting.
