Course Overview

Back Injury Prevention (Foundries) Details

According to the National Safety Council and medical research, 20% of backaches are attributed to inflammation such as arthritis, 10% are due to actual back injuries and other miscellaneous causes, 70% result from degeneration of spinal discs. That's right; aging of the spinal disc material causes the most trouble and can cause extreme pain even from routine body motions. We'll also discuss how strains and muscles work so you can prevent these types of back injuries also.
