From grocery bags to heavy luggage, your spine takes the brunt with repeated lifting and carrying. Improper lifting can strain muscles, compress spinal discs, and irritate nerves, leading to back pain, sciatica, or even shoulder and neck tension.
Chiropractic Tip: Always bend at the knees, keep items close to your body, and avoid twisting while lifting. Engaging your core and maintaining a neutral spine helps protect your back. If you’re already feeling stiff or sore, chiropractic adjustments can restore alignment, reduce muscle tension, and improve joint mobility—keeping you moving comfortably through the holidays.
