Lifting Technique

Most people know it but often forget it. What is it? To lift with your legs and not your back! Bend your knees, not your back. And remember to keep the weight as close to your body as possible. Simple but very important stuff to keep in mind when lifting heavy objects or repeatedly lifting many items in a short period of time. If you do injure your back in any type of accident, Marcum Chiropractic’s expert staff will take excellent care of you.
