Change positions
frequently.

If you're bending or
kneeling, change
positions often to
enhance circulation
and avoid stiffness.
Move lighter loads.
Trying to move too
large a load can wear
you out quickly and
lead to muscle and
back strain. Use a
wheelbarrow and
keep the load light.
Use long-handled
tools.

Most gardening tools
are available with
long handles, which
can minimize the
need for bending.
Protect your knees.
Gardening cushions
and kneepads make
kneeling much more
comfortable and are
available in many
retail stores.
Use Icy Hot.
Don't let pain take the
pleasure out of
gardening. When
you're hurting, rely on
Icy Hot for fast, long-
lasting pain relief from
sore muscles and stiff
joints.
