Top Tips to Prevent Injuries at Work and in Life — From the Experts at Beverly Hills Institute for Pain Management
1. Lift Smarter, Not Harder
Tip: Always bend at the knees, not your waist. Use your legs to lift.
We Can Help: If you’re already feeling back strain, we offer spinal decompression, physical therapy, and ergonomic consultations to stop injuries before they get worse.
2. Take Micro-Breaks
Tip: Every 30–60 minutes, stand up, stretch, or walk around—even if it’s just for 1 minute.
We Can Help: Repetitive strain injuries (RSIs) can sneak up on you. We treat and prevent carpal tunnel, tendonitis, and more.
3. Watch Your Posture
Tip: Whether sitting at a desk or standing all day, align your ears over your shoulders and shoulders over your hips.
We Can Help: Our posture correction programs and physical medicine therapies help reverse years of wear and tear.
4. Don’t Ignore the “Little” Pain
Tip: That small ache in your wrist or back could be your body’s first warning. Don’t wait until it becomes a full-blown injury.
We Can Help: Early detection and pain management services like injections, chiropractic, or physical rehab can save you from surgeries later.
5. Stay Fit, Stay Safe
Tip: A strong body resists injury better. Incorporate stretching, strength training, and balance exercises into your weekly routine.
We Can Help: If pain is keeping you from exercising, we’ll develop a custom recovery and movement plan to get you back on track—safely.
