It is no secret that gardening has many benefits. Being outdoors and interacting with nature can be extremely relaxing while getting tangible rewards such as fresh produce from your own garden makes it even more satisfying!
Gardening provides us with mental health and helps people live healthier lives by creating vibrant communities filled with greenery and inhabitants who are happy enough with them.
The low-impact gardening activities, such as weeding and planting, can put you at risk for back pain or conditions disc injuries. The bending motions associated with these tasks often result in new discomfort unless proper precautions are taken to protect your spine while lifting heavy tools like baskets full of dirt!
Here in this blog, we have mentioned a few garden tools and equipment that can help you kick off back pain while gardening.
Raised planters and work tables:
One of the most effective ways to reduce pain and injury in your garden is by using raised planters. They come in a wide range, from small sizes that can accommodate two or three pots at once up to rather massive options which will require you to buy them locally instead of online. They also vary greatly when it comes down to how high off the ground each one really gets–some only go about six inches higher than ground level while others may rise up past ten feet!
Rolling planters, hanging planters, and wheeled dollies:
Someone who is looking to create an outdoor living area with the most creative design possible might consider using a planter cart. This type of tool provides all associated benefits and adds some extra perks such as easy mobility, so you can move your flower arrangement or even Herbs plants around if needed!
They come in many styles and sizes, but they’re great at offering access anywhere without having too much bend required from planting locations. Thus making these planters perfect for challenging terrain where other methods wouldn’t work best because it’s hard on our backs plus sometimes there just isn’t enough space available nearby ground level.
Seats and Stools:
As much as possible, people with pain or pre-existing conditions should sit on a seat when gardening. This provides additional support and reduces strain while getting up from the ground, which requires more lean than usual if you are not used to it.
In addition, there’s an abundance of online options available in terms of furniture like simple benches & stools and ones that serve multiple functions such as being able to roll around after use either end outwards.
