Gardening and Back Pain

Gardening can be an enjoyable part of life. Incorrect gardening postures and activities can cause back pain. Back pain then limits your ability to do other things you really enjoy.

The title of this book, Back Pain: A Gardener’s Choice indicates you can choose to give yourself back pain from gardening incorrectly or you can choose to garden correctly and help avoid back pain.

Gardening incorrectly is not the only cause of back pain.

The most common cause of back pain is a forward bending overload created by three common factors.

In order to successfully prevent, manage or treat most back pain you must change all 3 factors.

This book will teach you facts about your back, not only to help you with gardening, but also in other activities.

Many people will give you well-meaning advice based on their beliefs or opinions, but only the facts give you the ability to make the right choices.

Learn how you can make the right choices for your back.
