Welcome to this month's Wellness Focus – Injury Prevention

Say it with me. Prevention 👏 Is 👏 Better 👏 Than 👏 Cure!👏

Below we have some great information on running strength training and injury prevention.

How to Prevent Injury

If you're working in a physical role, warming up and stretching before starting your shift, plus undertaking some regular strength and mobility training are key pillars for injury prevention. Check out our latest stretching videos to alleviate back pain, partnered with pre-shift stretching on site.

Even if your role is desk based, injury prevention is still crucial! Strength training, stretching and simple fitness exercises can improve energy levels, posture and alleviate tight muscles. See some strength and stretching videos and check out our fitness resources.

It’s also imperative that your workspace is set up correctly, especially if you’re working from home. See our working from home set up tips and ergonomic guidelines HERE
