Gardening is a rewarding activity, but it can place strain on the body
if proper techniques aren't used. Dr. Molly Knoblett, a physical therapist
and Clinic Manager at Athletico Physical Therapy in Champaign, will discuss
essential body mechanics to help prevent common gardening injuries,
such as back pain, strains, and repetitive stress injuries. By applying the
principles provided in this program, gardeners will learn how to minimize
the risk of injury, maintain long-term musculoskeletal health,
and look forward to gardening for a long time.
