Tips For Vacuum Cleaning With Back Pain

Tips For Vacuum Cleaning With Back Pain

How can vacuuming affect your lower back and what can you do to help ease this stress. Now the first port of call, especially if you’ve got recent back pain, would be to get someone else to do it!

We could stop the article there but the reality is that even if you don’t have back pain specifically, a good round of vacuuming can often result in back discomfort. There are a number of reasons for that which we discuss in more detail in the video but it starts with how we approach the vacuum cleaner.

Bending down is part and parcel of using this household device, and when we don’t have a solid grounding in movement patterns it is too0 easy to end up hunched over twisting left and right. This is not good for the lower back. It puts unnecessary stress focussed on the lower lumbar spine’s discs, which are invariable the site of injury in the lower back. So if the area is recovering from an injury this is almost certain to disgruntle the region.

If you can address this fundamental movement error then most of vacuuming can be a process which is much easier on your back. Your back muscles will still need to work to maintain a neutral spine but your hips can do most of the bending for you.

We go into more detail in the video so hopefully you have found it helpful and can better understand how you should be approaching the vacuuming if you’ve got a back injury!

Thank you for this video. I am recovering after disc fusion for last 4 months. Like you said I do forgetting to rest between daily tasks and hovering, I needed your video to remind me to do the work in a few series and get the coffee or simply laid down for few minutes, essentially take a lot breaks and my back really feels better. I do understand frustration with the long recovering process but it is very important to do that in right way and get better even though will probably takes another few months. Once more time thank you for your help.
