🛒 Ergonomics of Gardening: Wheelbarrow Wisdom
Loading and hauling garden tools or soil? Let's make sure you’re protecting your body, not punishing it.
Here’s how to move smarter with a wheelbarrow:
✅ Keep your elbows slightly bent and shoulders neutral, and chest tall, to avoid overfatiguing upper body.
✅ Engage your core and use your legs—not your back—to lift and push.
✅ Be aware of terrain and unevenness of load to avoid sidebending/twisting forces on spine.
✅ Don’t overload! It’s better to take multiple trips than one painful one.

With good form and a little awareness, even the heaviest loads can be moved comfortably and safely.

🗣️ Who says physical therapy can’t be fun?

Balancing on balance bubbles while squatting might look like a circus trick—but trust us, there’s serious science behind the wobble!

This move trains core control, knee stability, and balance reactions—all crucial whether you’re navigating rocky trails or just aiming to stay steady in the Costco parking lot.

We help you build strength and confidence, one controlled wobble at a time. Come see what Folsom Physical Therapy can do for you!

🚶PTs who walk the walk—and the hip hinge!

At Folsom Physical Therapy, we don’t just talk movement—we teach it with purpose. Whether it’s a better squat, safer lifting form, or mastering the elusive “hip hinge,” our team is right there with you (literally).

Learning proper movement patterns can help reduce pain, protect your back, and make daily life feel easier. Plus, we promise not to make you do anything we wouldn’t demo ourselves. 😉

🌱 Ergonomics of Gardening: Weeding
Weeding can be a pain in the neck, don’t let it become a pain in your back! 😣 Here's how to stay safe and strong while getting low to the ground:
🪴 Use a stool or kneeling pad to reduce strain on knees and hips.
🪴 Work smarter not harder - try weeding when the soil is wet to get roots up easier.
🪴 Bring the work to you—don't overreach. Move frequently to stay aligned.
🪴 Alternate sides and positions to avoid fatigue and overuse.

Weeding can be meditative—but only if you're not paying for it later. Your joints will thank you!

⚠️ Weeds beware—but protect your back while you're at it!
This Ergonomics of Gardening feature is all about using a weedwacker without wrecking your posture.
🌿 Tip: Keep a staggered stance for balance, make sure your hands and feet move together to avoid twisting from the waist. Let your legs and arms do the work—not your spine!
