5 Good Ways to Avoid Getting Back Pain.
Back pains are entirely uncomfortable and quite annoying. It is usually
caused by postural negligence. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel
agency, shares 5 secrets for avoiding back pains.
Stretch:
This
isn’t so much of a secret, nevertheless it is an important way to help
ease or avoid back pains. Gentle exercises or light stretches that help
to release tension, can be a great way to combat back pain. You can
perform these stretches at different points of the day, whenever you
have free time. While on an airplane, maybe when you want to use the
toilet, you can use the opportunity to walk in the aisle and do some
light stretches to help release tension in your back, before returning
to your seat.
Take a Nap or Go To Sleep:
Surprising
right? But sleep helps to facilitate the restoration of your muscles,
and this can help to ward off back pain. However, for this to happen,
your sleep has to be of high quality, meaning your mattress should be
right for you, your pillows should not be too hard or high and should be
placed properly. On an airplane, getting high quality sleep might be
difficult, but you can improve the quality of your sleep largely by
using a travel pillow and you should try to avoid falling asleep leaning
forward without any back support.
Lift Things Correctly:
Lifting
things incorrectly is the number one mistake people that ends up
causing them back pain. Always use safe lifting methods, especially when
doing heavy or even slightly heavy lifting. Use a ‘Knee Bend’ for
lifting objects with significant weight; while you can use a ‘Golfer’s
Crouch’ or ‘Golfer’s Lift’ when stooping for smaller objects.
Avoid Sitting for Too Long:
If
you have to sit for long period of time, avoid slouching over and try
to take ‘standing up’ breaks regularly. This is will help decrease the
pressure on your back and help you avoid back pain. This is why during
long flights, you shouldn’t just sit down all through. Get up and walk
down the aisle from time to time, your back will thank you for it.
Be Active:
Being
active and moving your joint often helps to strengthen your muscles
which helps you to easily avoid back and other muscle problems. Also, a
good ‘core stability exercise’ programme can help ‘stabilize’ your spine
and provide a ‘solid foundation for the rest of your body’s movement’.
Aside from being active, you should ensure you avoid movements and
postures that can cause back pain. When sitting down, especially on an
airplane, avoid slouching on the chair or leaning forward without back
support, for prolonged periods
