Osteopathy Inc. Desloges OMP M. OMSc
Spring is here, and so is the urge to declutter, lift, and scrub every corner! But if you've been less active all winter, jumping into heavy cleaning can lead to aches, strains, or even injuries.
Stay safe with these OMP-approved tips:
✔️ Warm up first! A few minutes of stretching can prevent muscle strain.
✔️ Lift smart. Bend your knees, engage your core, and avoid twisting while lifting.
✔️ Take breaks. Your body isn't built for hours of scrubbing without rest!
✔️ Switch sides. Avoid overloading one arm or leg—balance is key.
✔️ Listen to your body. Soreness is okay, but sharp pain means stop!
Feeling stiff after spring cleaning? An osteopathic manual practitioner can help you recover, release tension, and prevent future injuries. Find an OSTCAN OMP near you: https://ostcan.ca/mpage/members-search
